| Horus, Osiris and Anubis from a tomb's draw |
The gods Anubis,
Osiris, and
God Horus, from a tomb painting. Osiris is the mythological father of the deity Horus, whose excogitation is described in the Osiris myth, a serious myth in ancient Egyptian belief. The myth described Osiris as having been defeated by his brother Set, who idolized Osiris' throne. Isis engaged the fragmented patches of Osiris, but the unique body part gone was the phallus. Isis fashioned a golden phallus, and briefly got Osiris back to life by use of a piece that she learned from her father. This charm gave her time to grown pregnant by Osiris before he once again died. Isis later broken birth to Horus. As such, since Horus was born afterwards Osiris' resurrection, Horus became view of as a representation of new starts and the vanquisher of the evil
Set.
Ptah-Seker (who resulted from the merge between Ptah with Seker), deity of re-incarnation, thus gradually became discovered with Osiris, the two proper Ptah-Seker-Osiris. As the sun was thought to drop the night in the underworld, and was subsequently re-incarnated every morning, Ptah-Seker-Osiris was discovered as both king of the underworld, and god of reincarnation.
