Weret Hekau



Weret Hekau was the name of an ancient Egyptian goddess associated with the protection of the sun god and was considered the wet nurse of the pharaohs. Because of this, and the fact the pharaonic succession was matrilineal, the mother of a future pharaoh was sometimes considered a personification of Weret Hekau.
