Hesat

In Egyptian mythology, Hesat (also Hesahet, Hesaret) was a cow-goddess and mother of Anubis. She was the wet-nurse of the gods. Milk was said to be "the beer of Hesat." One of the titles of Hesat was “The One Who Creates All Nourishment.” In a time when many women died in childbirth, the ability of cow’s milk to sustain a human baby was deeply appreciated. Hesat was considered to be the mother of the Mnevis bull, and was sometimes thought to be the mother of Anubis. She was pictured as a divine white cow, carrying a tray of food on her horns, with milk flowing from her udders.
