I wondered if the Egyptian theme here had anything to do with the finding of Tutankhamen's tomb. That didn't happen till 1922, but the thrill of the archaeological seasons leading up to it must have made itself felt among curious and informed people. "Pasht" is a variant of the name of the better known cat goddess "Bastet."
