Small Isis Statue | |
|
Egyptian Museum,
Cairo Dynasty XVIII,
1347-1237 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.
The ancient Egyptians
regarded the Goddess
as the “Eye of Ra”.
Here she is dressed
like a queen. The
Khat headdress adorns
the head and tumbles
down over the back, a
large collar covers
the shoulders. The
pleated shawl is tied
at the waist,
partially covering
the elegant, long
pleated robe tied
with hanging sashes.
Isis turns her head
slightly to one side
as if to ward off
some danger.
