Shu: God of wind and air. Tefnut: God of rain. Geb (Seb): God of the earth. Nut: God of the sky. Osiris: Pluto and the god of agriculture. Isis / Auset: Goddess of life， magic， marriage and fertility， mother of Horus. Seth: God of war， desert， storm， and foreign gods. Nephthys: The patron saint of houses and the dead， the mother of Anubis. Osiris was originally a god of water， land， and fertility. He brought grace to mankind. He was in charge of the growth of the Nile water， land， and plants， and created abundant food for the Nile people. Later， Osiris was persecuted to death by his brother Set， and was taken over by the gods to become the king of the Hades， so he was more often regarded as the God of Hades. In ancient Egypt， the people also worshiped Osiris very much. Later， his status was almost equal to that of the sun god. On the one hand， at the time when the Nile water dropped in Egypt every year， a memorial ceremony was held to mourn the death of Osiris. They symbolically killed God and then celebrated his resurrection. The purpose of this was to hope for the next year's plants. There will be a bumper harvest and disaster relief. It is said that this is because the people of the Nile regard this god， a symbol of fertility， lush vegetation， and all things， as the cause of the changes in the four seasons. If God is injured or dies， the river will dry up， the land will be deserted， and the plants will wither; and when God is resurrected， the Nile will be full of water， the land will be fertile， and everything will be alive. This ceremony shows the innocent understanding of the ancient Egyptians about the mysterious and natural society， and it reflects the eagerness of ancient humans to conquer nature. On the other hand， Osiris is also very important as the god of the Hades， which is related to the religious beliefs of the ancient Egyptians. The Egyptians believed in all things， and they were particularly concerned about people's survival. Unlike other ethnic groups， the Egyptians believe that people still have life after death， and that life after death is just as important as life. Only when one completes a continuation of life before and after death can one obtain final peace and life. complete. So Egypt has many myths and legends. As Hades ruled all those who died， namely those of Hades， Osiris as Hades had a sacred status. Whether it is a pharaoh， a royal noble， or a lower-level civilian， the Egyptians hope to receive the favor of Hades after their death， so Egypt will have a big pyramid， a refined mummy， and the "Dead Book" for the dead. Wait. However， whether as a god of high yield or a god of Hades， Osiris and his wife， Isis， were spouses and accompanied each other. Isis is also a god of high yield and a well-known Egyptian witch. She and Osiris are a pair of important gods of high yield. After Osiris became the Hades， she also entered the Hades with her husband and became the Queen of Hades. The story of this couple is the most vivid and interesting myth after the legend of La God. Osiris is even regarded as the successor of La God. According to legend， when Osiris was born， there was a voice in heaven saying that he would become the master of all things. When La God became old， he turned over the rule of the earth to Osiris， but he ascended into the kingdom of heaven. Osiris sat on the throne of Egypt and became the ruler here. When he succeeded， Egypt was still very backward， and human beings were in a state of barbarism. They mainly hunted， and the tribes often warned and killed each other. Osiris began to govern the country. It is said that he enacted laws to calm the tribal disputes and improve the living conditions of the people， so Egypt became a peaceful and unified country. As the queen of Osiris， Isis was aware of the needs of human beings， so he collected wild big wheat and gave it to her husband. Osiris taught mankind to reclaim land， sow grain， and taught mankind to plant fruit trees， so that the wasteland can grow plants. With these things done， the Egyptian people stopped fighting， and they began to live a happy and beautiful life. When Egypt was booming， Osiris thought of going around the world， and while he was out， he gave his kingship to his wife Isis. But Osiris didn't go long， and his brother Seth came to the palace. Seth is a well-known evil god. He was very dissatisfied with his brother's outstanding achievements. He instigated rebellion and provoked hostility in the country. However， the goddess Isis was higher than Seth after all. She soon frustrated him. conspiracy. Seth then began to persecute Osiris with seventy-two followers， all of whom were assistants to the Queen of Ethiopia's conspiracy. Osiris had been killed several times before， but was resurrected by the magical goddess Isis. This time he came up with a plan. When he returned from abroad by Osiris， he asked his brother to go to his place of residence， and he was going to hold a grand welcome banquet for Osiris. Originally， Isis refused to let her husband participate， but Osiris insisted on seeing that his brother was very sincere. Shortly after the banquet began， Seth took out a beautiful box and said that who happened to lie down inside it， and gave it to whom. People at the banquet were overjoyed， they all wanted to get this beautiful box， so everyone lay down to try， but no one just lay down. At this time Osiris turned to try， he was not interested in the box， but everyone wanted to know if he could fit， impatient， Osiris walked into the box， strangely， his body just dropped in the box， everyone There was a cheer， but when he was thinking about it， Setter quickly closed the lid. He nailed the box with nails and soldered it with lead. Osiris quickly lost his breath inside. Then Seter ordered the followers to take the box away， and according to Seth's will， they quietly threw the box into the Nile. When Isis heard about the unfortunate killing of her husband， she was very sad. She made an oath， she must find her husband's body， she cut her hair， put on her mourning clothes， and began her husband's journey. She passed many places and no one saw the box. Finally she came to the beach and saw a child who told her that he had seen the box drifting down the Nile into the sea. Taking advantage of Isis's search for a husband， Seth captured the throne. As soon as he came to power， the Egyptian people were oppressed. His cruel rule made life difficult for the people. And Isis became the nail of Seth's eye， and he ordered no one to accept or protect her. So Isis's situation was even more difficult. At this time， she was helped by the magical seven scorpions， and La God sent Anubis the "leader". Once， Isis came to a poor woman's house and rescued the woman's child before she could settle down. Soon Isis gave birth to another son Horus. When Seth knew it， they arrested them in every way， leaving them nowhere to hide. Later， Seth killed Horus， and Isis Dela and the wisdom god Toss helped each other to bring the beloved back to life. When Osiris' coffin drifted to Biblos Beach in Syria， a god tree grew from there， and the king there saw that the tree grew very fast， thick and large， and it was cut to make the palace of the palace. column. Isis was inspired by God and found her husband in Syria. The queen saw that Isis was smart and cute and made her a babysitter. Isis liked the child very much， and wanted him to live forever， and ordered him to burn in the fire. The queen was very angry when she saw it. Isis had to raise the child， but he could not live forever. Later， Isis restored her goddess and asked the king to give her the pillar， and the king agreed to her request. So she dug a box out of the pillar， wrapped the pillar with cloth， and coated it with "myrrh". Later， the king ordered his subordinates to build a temple for Isis， and put the holy pillar in it. People have been worshipping at the temple. When Isis was about to leave Syria， the king gave her son to her， and they went on the road together. Halfway through， Isis wanted to see her dead husband， opened the box， and kissed the cold husband warmly. Prince Beblos wanted to peek at the contents of the box and was stabbed to death by the light of Isis. When Isis hid the box in the jungle to pick it up in Bhutto's son， Seth found the box and cut Osiris' body into fourteen pieces and threw it into the Nile. Isis went through a difficult journey to find her husband's body. At last she found all the corpses and built a tomb where the corpses were found. Later， people built temples on the tombs. For many years， people worshiped Osiris and Isis in these temples. Myth also says that when Osiris and Isis ’s son Horus grew up， he avenged his father and went through many life-and-life confrontations with Seth， but he never made a difference. The gods made a referee and let Horus Made the king of Egypt. There is also a myth that Raphaz seth and Horus ruled Egypt together. According to another myth， when Osiris's body was found by Isis， she was so distressed that she cried loudly. This cry was heard by the god Rashen， so he sent the god Anubis down to the earth and put the body of Ossis. Connected and wrapped in cloth， this is the origin of the mummy. Then Isis used his magic power to rejuvenate Osiris， and the gods took him to heaven and made him the king of Hades. This myth vividly shows the story of Osiris， one of the main gods of Egypt， and his wife， Isis. Through the continuous struggle between the good represented by Osiris and the evil represented by Seth， it shows that good will ultimately defeat evil. The truth is No one can annihilate， and Isis is not afraid of danger， and the spirit of seeking a husband reflects the tenacious and persistent character of the ancient Egyptians. Ancient Egyptian mythology is one of the earliest myths in ancient times. It has a great influence and is widely spread. Ancient Babylon， Hebrew and Greek-Roman myths have the shadow of Egyptian mythology. It is said that Osiris only came to Greece after its introduction into Greece God of Dionysus. In ancient Roman times， the god Isis was widely worshipped by the Romans， and it was even regarded as the ruler of the earth and the protector of women. until today. Egyptian mythology still has great appeal， and it has become an important source for future generations to understand Egyptian history， culture， religion and social customs.
