She had to retrieve her son back, She decided the only way to get her son back was by threatening Sekhmet. Isis had an army, It was not any powerful army.

    Akhenaton (Amenhotep IV) was an eighteenth dynasty pharaoh who is known for his attempt to change Egyptian culture and religion. As the younger son of Amenhotep III, he would have not been pharaoh but when his elder brother (crown prince Thutmose) died he had a claim for the thrown and became the Pharaoh of Egypt. Akhenaton had many wives and fathered many children. His wives (or consorts) include Nefertiti and Kiya; some Egyptologists suggest that (like his father) Akhenaton may have taken some daughters as wives or consorts. Akhenaton’s known children are: Tutankhaten (later known as Tuankhamun and King Tut), Smenkhkare, Meritaten, Meketaten, Ankhesenpaaten (later wife of Tuankhamun), Neferneferuaten Tasherit, Neferneferure and…

    For nearly 3,000 years since around 3,100 BC, Egypt held a polytheistic (multiple gods) belief system. Their sun god (variously called Amon, Re (Ra), or Aten), was considered greater than other Egyptian deity. Equally important was the Nile River. Which was Egypt's primary source of it's deep sense of order. Because of the regularity of the sun's daily cycle and the Nile's annual overflow, ancient Egyptians felt security.…

    Most people describe a “god” as a powerful and omnipotent being who created the world, and guides his people to be morally just. Whether it is God of Christianity, Yahweh of Judaism, or Allah of Islamism, most “Western” religions have the same monotheistic feel, and even Buddhists who are neither monotheistic nor polytheistic all follow the same concept of working towards a more honest life. However, in ancient times, religion was not at all like this. In Ancient Mesopotamia, and Ancient Egypt, religion was polytheistic, and there were not many teachings that prevented people from becoming sinful. It was not until the Hebrews came along, that this new idea of monotheism and righteousness was considered. The religious structure and implementation of the Hebrews was more developed than that of the Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations.…

    In most ancient cultures, religion played a massive role in the everyday life of their citizens. No other ancient society demonstrated this better than the ancient Egyptians, who devoted all of their life and much of their resources to worship. Ancient Egypt was an entirely theologically based society, demonstrated by the intellectual aspects of their lives. This is shown by the social ranking or pyramid, with the top tiers being made up of religious figures, the focus of their studies, and the fact that their beliefs were their motivation to live.…

    1. Osiris, Isis and Horus - Set was the son of Geb and Nut who chose to be born on the third day. Set was aggressive from the very beginning choosing the time and manner of his birth. Osiris became king of Upper and Lower Egypt. Set wanted to take over the country and established a plan to trick Osiris by showing a beautiful wooden box during the feast. Set said that anyone who can fit in the box perfectly was able to keep the box – little did everyone know that Set secretly measured the box to fit Osiris. Once Osiris had his turn to fit in the box, it was nailed shut with him inside. They then poured melted lead to make sure that he suffocated. Isis eventually was able to bring Osiris back to life and in the mean time their son, Horus, was born. Horus was born to avenge his father’s death and kill Set. Isis would not allow Horus to kill Set, so they battled each other, and Horus won each time.…

    To me it makes no difference that Isis is female. I think she still follows Joseph Campbell's concept of the hero and the hero’s journey. Even though Isis’s story differs from the hero’s journey she is still a hero according to the people of Egypt. On page 14 of our text World Mythology, Donna Rosenberg states “Isis was a human being as well as a goddess. Her persistent search for the body of Osiris and her trials while she reared Horus in the papyrus swamps endeared her to the Egyptian people.”…

    Osiris and Isis is an African myth that talks about afterlife and immortality and how Osiris became the symbol of immortality. In the myth, Seth plays the jealous trickster. The jealous trickster is the character that tricks and cons them by luring them into traps that he/she has set up. I have chosen to analyze Seth because this jealous trickster personality trait defines the meaning of unhappy rage, and envy towards a brother for living lavishly and wanting to get rid of Osiris. He is also the misunderstood one and he is casted off.…
