Seshat is one of the oldest Egyptian goddesses; we can date her to the First Dynasty (c. 2900BCE).
She was the goddess of libraries and written accounts, protector of books and knowledge. Her name means “the one who writes.” She presided over the “House of Life,” where Ancient Egyptian knowledge was housed.
In the Pyramid Texts she is known as the “Mistress of the Builders” and is considered the patroness of architecture.
