If anyone is interested, back over in biblical Egypt where the Israelites were waiting for Moses to download this cloud data to his two tablets, lol, the Israelites did indeed build themselves a golden calf. The god they were worshiping? Was named Hathor and, here, I asked the AI to put together a few brief sentences about her:

Hathor, an Egyptian god typically expressed in the form of a female cow or young calf, was one of ancient Egypt's most enduring deities. Hathor was worshipped from the earliest dynastic periods through to the Greco-Roman era, spanning over 3,000 years. Originating as a sky deity (We got the term milky way from the worship of Hathor, which was used to describe the dusty milky lanes across the sky in the Egyptian night).

Hathor's roles expanded over time to encompass love, beauty, music, motherhood, and protection, embodying the principles of femininity and fertility. Her statues, carved from stone, often depict her as a cow, a woman with cow's ears, or a woman wearing a headdress consisting of cow horns and a sun disk. Hathor represented the quintessence of motherly and feminine virtues, and her worship included jubilant music and dance, reflecting her joyful and benevolent nature.

In other words, the Egyptians were trying to satisfy by returning to a more pure and simple version of Egyptian mythology by returning to the worship of Hathor, but of course, when Moses came down from the Mount Sinai, he had a very different and much more beneficial theological direction in mind. It seems to have been some kind of disagreement about that...
