在埃及神话中，瓦吉特（埃及语：w3ḏyt；Wadjet亦作Wadjit、Wedjet、Uadjet或Ua Zit，希腊语：Udjo、Uto、Edjo或Buto等；中文则有乌加特、瓦杰特等译法）原本是德普当地的古代女神，德普即后来的帕尔—瓦吉特的一部分（亦即希腊语中的布托），布托是古埃及前王朝时期的一个重要城市，该地也是古代埃及人自旧石器时代至公元前3100年一万年间的发展种植的地方。瓦吉特一直是下埃及的守护神，后来上下埃及统一后，便与上埃及的秃鹫女神奈赫贝特一起成为埃及的守护神。瓦吉特盘绕太阳的形象名为神圣的毒蛇（uraeus），是下埃及王冠的象徽。

Wadjet (/ˈwɑːdˌdʒɛt/ or /ˈwædˌdʒɛt/; Egyptian wꜣḏyt, "green one"), known to the Greek world as Uto (/ˈjuːtoʊ/ or Buto /ˈbjuːtoʊ/) among other names, was originally the ancient local goddess of the city of Dep (Buto), which became part of the city that the Egyptians named Per-Wadjet, House of Wadjet, and the Greeks called Buto (Desouk now), a city that was an important site in the Predynastic era of Ancient Egypt and the cultural developments of the Paleolithic. She was said to be the patron and protector of Lower Egypt and upon unification with Upper Egypt, the joint protector and patron of all of Egypt "goddess" of Upper Egypt. The image of Wadjet with the sun disk is called the uraeus, and it was the emblem on the crown of the rulers of Lower Egypt. She was also the protector of kings and of women in childbirth.
