介绍（中）	这里展示的两位女神都与女性有关。尽管他们面对面，但在埃及艺术的惯例中，他们被视为并排站着，面对观众。塔维特出现在左边，她面前的铭文表明她是"塔维特，天空的女主人"。她的头上戴着太阳圆盘和牛角。虽然塔维特本人通常不与天空联系在一起，但这一特征和她的绰号可能是从女性气质和爱情女神哈托尔那里借来的，这表明塔维特在这里代表了女性本身。为了保持她在分娩期间和分娩后作为女性保护力量的一贯作用，她突出的肚子暗示着怀孕了右边的图像通过铭文被识别为"伟大的穆特，伊舍鲁的情妇"。这位女神是阿蒙的妻子，体现了母性原则；她的名字本身的意思是"母亲"。她在这里用一个放在胸部的人头来表示，这可能是子宫的象征石碑是由一名男子委托制作的，其姓名和部分保留的头衔刻在底部："孔苏阿蒙[…]的[…]。"石碑的图像表明，它是捐赠者为一名妇女的成功怀孕和分娩寻求Taweret和Mut的代祷而赠送的。
介绍（英）	The two goddesses shown here were associated with women. Although they face one another, in the conventions of Egyptian art they are meant to be seen as standing side by side, facing the viewer. Taweret appears on the left, identified by the inscription in front of her as "Taweret, mistress of the sky." On her head she wears a sun disk and cow's horns. Although Taweret herself is not usually associated with the sky, this feature, and her epithet, are probably borrowed from Hathor, the goddess of femininity and love, indicating that here Taweret represents the female sex itself. In keeping with her usual role as a protective force for women during and after childbirth, her protruding belly suggests pregnancy. The image on the right is identified by its inscription as "Mut the great, mistress of Isheru." This goddess was the wife of Amun and embodied the principle of motherhood; her name itself means "mother." She is represented here by a human head atop a chest, which may be a symbolic representation of the womb. The stela was commissioned by a man whose name and partially preserved title are inscribed at bottom: "[ … ] of [the house of] Amun, Khonsu." The stela's imagery suggests that it was in-tended as a votive offering by its donor seeking the intercession of Taweret and Mut for a woman's successful pregnancy and childbirth.
