A city of ancient Egypt, noted as a centre of worship of the goddess Bastet. Labels: historical Example: 1891, Édouard Naville, Bubastis (1887-1889), Kegan Paul, Trench, Trübner & Co., page 4, This explanation would apply particularly well to Bubastis, of which we know that it was besieged by the Persians, and that it was conquered in the wars of the time of Phocas. 2. The goddess Bastet. Labels: Egyptian Example: 1861, Bubastis, entry in W. Smith (editor), Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, Volume 1, John Murray, page 515, But it seems more natural to suppose here, as in other instances of Egyptian religion, that the worship of Bubastis was originally the worship of the cat itself, which was subsequently refined into a mere symbol of the goddess. The fact that the ancients identify Bubastis with Artemis or Diana is to us a point of great difficulty, since the information we possess respecting the Egyptian goddess presents little or no resemblance between the two divinities.
