I don't know of any Egyptian goddess who turned people to stone, but the Greek Medusa was a monster so hideous any living creature that looked at her would turn to stone. In some versions of the myth she is a daughter of the gods and sister to the Gordons. In others she was a beautiful young mortal who was so vain that she insulted Athena who turned her into a monster.
