Bast/Bastet
Mar. 20th, 2009 04:39 pmSo many photocopies and PDFs... I'm so much better at collecting them than I am at reading them, or posting about them. In this posting I want to gather together a whole lot of notes about the Egyptian goddess Bast or Bastet; when I've finished rummaging through all the research I've accumulated, I'll post again with a summary.
( This way to the cumulative note-taking... )
Lots of stuff in the Bastet tag in my Tumblr!
