Sasobek was an Egyptian man living in Memphis during the 1st century BCE.
He worked as the taster for the baker Teta in Memphis' marketplace, at least since before 53 BCE onwards. At some point, he fell desperatly in love with her, but could not summon up the courage to tell her of his feelings.[1]
In 48 BCE, Sasobek was taken by the city guards under the claim of unpaid taxes on spices, and thrown into a cage to be transported to the local garrison. In reality, Sasobek had learned that one of their long-time customers, Lady Taimhotep, the wife of Pasherenptah, the High Priest of Ptah, was the target of a poisoning plot.[1]
Soon after the guards had seized Sasobek, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa learned of his predicament, and set about to rescue him. After Sasobek had been returned to Teta, he told the baker and the Medjay of what he'd discovered.[1]
