Osiris
[ez-toc]
One of Egypt’s most revered gods, Osiris, was the deity of the afterlife. He also represented the cycle of Nile floods that Egypt depended on for agricultural fertility, as well as death, the afterlife, and resurrection.
The myth claims that Osiris was an Egyptian monarch who was killed and mutilated by his brother Seth. They were able to produce a son, the god Horus after his wife Isis put his body back together and brought him back to life. He was shown as a mummified king, dressed in wrappings that only showed his green hands and face.
