The goddess Bastet was usually represented as a woman with the head of a domesticated cat. However, up until 1000 BC she was portrayed as a lioness. Bastet was the daughter of Ra, the sun god. When Re destroyed his enemy, he was usually depicted as a cat. As portrayed as a cat, she was connected with the moon (her son was the god of the moon). When shown as a lioness, she is associated with sunlight.
