|description=The female Typhon, the hippopotamus, called also ''Ta‐ur, Ta‐op‐oer'', etc. ; she is the ''Thoueris'' of the Greeks. This wife of Typhon was represented as a monstrous hippopotamus, sitting on her hind legs with a knife in one hand and the sacred knot in the other the ''pâsa '' of Siva). Her back was covered with the scales of a crocodile, and she had a crocodile’s tail. She is also called ''Teb'', whence the name of Typhon is also, sometimes, ''Tebh''. On a monument of the sixth dynasty she is called “the nurse of the gods”. She was feared in Egypt even more than Typhon.
