There is a myth about Isis , the godess of life.
Osiris was the first faro of Egypt.
But his brother killed him.
So Isis wanted to use a magic way to bring her husband.
They had a kid , Horus.
Horus killed Seth.
Isis is the goddess of fertility.

Horus is the god of the sky and protector of the living.

Osiris is the god of death as well as the ancient Egyptian symbol of eternal life.

According to a traditional method supposedly begun by Isis,

who mummified her husband Osiris. In addition, wood or stone

replicas of the body were put into the tomb in the event that

the mummy was destroyed. The greater the number of

statue-duplicates in his or her tomb, the more chances the dead person had of resurrection.

Ptah is the creator god of Memphis,

the capital of the dual Kemetic for most of its history.

Ptah is symbolized as a mummified man wearing a skullcap

and holding the symbols of life, power, and stability in his arms.

Ptah is sometimes seen as an abstract form of the self-created one.

Ptah represents the sun at the time when it begins to rise above the

horizon and or right after it has risen.

Great work. What did you think of these stories? Are they useful to a modern person such as yourself? I still think they have meaning and value, despite all the time that has passed.
