Osiris,
the Resurrection God, is the central figure in the afterlife myth and
in Egyptian mythology as a whole. His name means "The Seat of the Eye". To die
and be properly prepared for the other life is to become one with Osiris in
the underworld over which he rules. Osiris received earthly rule from his
father, Geb. His brother Seth envied his hegemony; he enticed Osiris into a
chest and flung him into the Nile.
His
wife sought and found his body and with her own magic powers and the help of
Thoth, Nephthys, Anubis and Horus, restored Osiris to life. Osiris, however
already belonged to the world of the dead, and although after his resurrection
he could have reclaimed his throne, he preferred to maintain his kingdom in
the Land of the Dead, leaving his vindication on earth in the hands of his
posthumous son Horus.
