Isis Nursing Horus
Statue: Egyptian
Museum, Cairo. 19th
Dynasty 1300 B.C. The
name Isis
means "seat"
or "throne". She was
regarded as the
symbolical mother of
the King. In myth,
she sought her dead
husband and brother,
Osiris, conceived her
son Horus by him,
buried and mourned
him together with her
sister Nephtys. Isis
was regarded as
the “Eye of Ra” and
was worshipped as
the “Great of Magic”
who had protected her
son Horus from
snakes, predators and
other dangers: thus
she would protect
mortal children also.
Isis is here depicted
as a mother suckling
her young son Horus
and it is in this
aspect that the
Goddess was regarded
as the vital link
between Deities and
Royalty, since the
King was regarded as
the living Horus on
the throne of Egypt.
In the pyramid texts
it’s stated that the
ruler drinks divine
milk from the breast
of his mother Isis:
This is the imagery
of the plethora of
statuettes of Isis
seated on a throne
suckling the young
Horus who sits in her
lap.
