Bastet or Bast was known to be the daughter of Ra (Re) and a protective goddess.

A non-domesticated cat was Bastets sacred animal. She was thought to be the goddess of magic, joy, dance, health, healing, and protection against evil spirits and sicknesses. Bastet became a national goddess circa 950 B.C.E. Many legends stated that she would accompany Ra nightly and fend off Apep. In hieroglyphics her name means She of the Perfume Jar. Bastet (Bast) is depicted in art as a cat, or as a woman with the head of a cat, a sand cat or a lion. She is often shown holding the ankh (representing the breath of life) or the papyrus wand (representing Lower Egypt). She occasionally bears a was-scepter (signifying strength) and is often accompanied by a litter of kittens. During the New Kingdom Bastet became known as the cat goddess, before that she was known to have the head of a lion or desert cat. Bastet was worshiped all around Lower Egypt but her temple was located in Babastis, now in ruins and the capital of Egypt in the Late Period.

Nekhbet was known as a patron of Upper Egypt and called Hedjet, referring to the white crown of Upper Egypt. Nekhbets sacred animal was the vulture and she had the headdress of a snake or vulture. She is depicted oftenly with the white crown of Upper Egypt due to the fact that her temple was there. Nekhbet was the protector of royal children and later of all children and expectant mothers. Like other Goddesses she had a dark side and was associated with the Eye of Ra. Nekhbets temple was located in Nekhb, including a birth house, a series of small temples, a sacred lake and some early cemeteries.

Her temple was first established in the Old Kindom but during the 18th Dynasty major projects were undertaken and the majority of the remains belong to pharaohs of the Twenty-ninth and Thirtieth Dynasties. She was the goddess of motherhood, queenship, wild birds, the creator of life, and death and rebirth.

Maat was the goddess of truth, law and order, justice, immortality, and primordial being. Her symbol is a feather and it later becomes the hieroglyphic of truth. The feather is also known as the feather of truth that a persons heart would be weighed against the persons heart. The earliest piece of writing containing Maat was circa 2,780-2,250 B.C.E. in the Old Kingdom. In Egyptian her name literally translated to truth. The only temple dedicated to her was located in Karnak in Thebes, the capital of Egypt in the New Kingdom (except for Akhenatens ruling.) In some myths it is said that Maat gave the breath of life to the gods but, on the contrary others said that she was a daughter of Ra (Re.) Even though her name in hieroglyphics in a feather so is the air god Shus so to find out who the writing is taking about you would need to look more into the context.

Serkets other names that she was known as was Selkis, Selkhet, Serguet, and Selkhit.
