Hathor was one of ancient Egypt's most popular goddesses, but there are few if any stories about her death. This is not surprising: Egyptian gods and goddesses were assimilated into the stories and myths of other cultures (in some Greek myths, Hathor was identified with the goddess Aphrodite), so it may be that she was just subsumed by other goddesses. It should be noted that in Egyptian religion, the gods and goddesses were not seen as eternal or all-powerful, so if a particular kingdom was conquered, it was believed that kingdom's deities were also conquered. We do know that she represented different attributes at various times in Egyptian history: she was the sky-goddess, the fertility goddess, the protector of pregnant women, and later, the goddess of the underworld. Eventually, her power and her popularity faded, and she seems to have been replaced by other deities.

In ancient Egyptian mythology, Hathor did not die in the traditional sense. She is a goddess associated with love, beauty, music, and motherhood, among other things. There are no specific myths or stories detailing her death; rather, she is often depicted as eternal and ever-present in the pantheon of Egyptian deities.
