At that time Egypt was composed of several kingdoms which in turn formed a sort of confederation,
and in the center of Egypt had a battle because an evil prince named Seth, jealous that his brother
had been crowned Pharaoh, and he did not, wanted to usurp the throne through deceit and machinations
What he achieved with the help of some traitors of the realm. But he soon discovered everything, and Seth
was expelled from Egypt, then the impostor wanted to take revenge and launched a terrible curse, causing a
plague of rats to come into the cities, which were introduced in the barns, causing great losses,

Creator Spirit (God), then was sent a archangel to prompted Queen Selene, who quickly became Bobcats bring

all the traitors who supported him.

Selene. And thereafter the Bobcats were welcome to Egypt and over time became cats,
which even today are still prized for their pleasant company and because we get rid of the annoying pests.
It was for this great act of heroism along with others, that the Queen Selene came to be regarded as a goddess (One archangel
or prophetess) and was depicted as a woman with the head of a cat.
