Mafdet



In early Egyptian mythology, Mafdet (also spelt Maftet) was the deification of legal justice, or rather of execution. Thus she was also associated with the protection of the king's chambers and other sacred places, and with protection against venomous animals, which were seen as transgressors against Ma'at.
