Hippos
| The ancient Egyptians worshipped a goddess represented as a hippopotamus called Ta-urt or Thoueris. She was the wife of Set, and was worshipped at Thebes as Apet. Some at Thebes believed that she had also given
birth to Osiris, brother of Set. She was sometimes called the "good nurse" for she presided at the birth of children.
