Coat

medical gown

Doctors' coats are usually white.

A robe is a garment characterized by its spaciousness that, depending on the case, can be similar to an apron , a blouse or a duster . There are different types of gowns according to the use given to them.

About other clothes

There are gowns that are placed over clothing as protection . These outdoor gowns are usually used by those who work in hospitals , laboratories or hair salons , to name a few possibilities.

Gowns of this type prevent the clothing worn by the person from becoming dirty or contaminated. Suppose a biologist is analyzing a sample: by wearing a gown, you prevent any pathogen from getting on your t-shirt or shirt and also, in combination with the use of gloves, masks and other accessories, you minimize the possibility of the agent reaching your skin .

Gown for home use

A robe, on the other hand, is the garment that is open in the front and that people wear when they get up . These gown models are designed for domestic or home use.

The robe, therefore, can be used as a coat . The individual who is lying down and covered by a blanket or blanket may feel cold when he gets up. To avoid this, you can put on a robe.

bathrobe

The bathrobe , lastly, is worn when getting out of the shower. It usually allows the user to cover their nakedness to go to the room where they will finally dress. Similar robes can be worn at the exit of a swimming pool or in other contexts that, due to modesty or social conditioning, require covering the body.

In fact, this robe can also be used by a person who lives alone, for different reasons, to leave the bathroom, covering their body after a shower until they get dressed. Whether to protect yourself from the cold or out of habit (if you had been doing the same thing since your childhood, when you lived with your family), covering the naked body is an obligation that society imposes on us to the point that we often do it even when no one else is could see us.

On the other hand, the bathrobe can also be used to keep warm when getting out of bed, like the one described above. Although they do not usually have the same characteristics, not everyone can or wants to buy two versions of the same garment. So they use only one for both purposes.

The bull god

Also called Bat , Bata is a god of the New Kingdom of Egypt who was associated with Anubis , his older brother, in representing the seventeenth Nome (a territorial subdivision) of Upper Egypt. During the first half of the 18th Dynasty, this god was represented in the form of a ram, but later his image became that of a bull .

Anubis Robe

A statue of Anubis, Bata's brother

Anubis is the guardian of the necropolis, related to both death and the life that follows it. According to legend, she loved her younger brother like a son, and in fact after marrying she continued living with him. Bata helped him both inside and outside the house, protecting the animals and working in the fields.

Between them, however, a heartbreaking story took place, which began when Anubis' wife tried to cheat on him with Bata but the latter refused. She lied to her husband, telling him that her brother had tried to get in touch with her, and this caused them to confront each other. However, with the help of Ra , they were able to clarify the situation. Lies, betrayal , death and even resurrection are elements that are repeated throughout this interesting legend, which is believed to have inspired other important legends.
