The myth of oriris

Osiris was a ancient myth in Egypt. He was the God of the Underworld. He was the father of Horus and a husband to Isis. Osiris was killed by his brother Seth by drowning him in the Nile because Seth wanted to take over the throne of Egypt. After, Orisis was killed his son Horus took the throne. Once Osiris died his wife resurrected him with the Ritual of Life. Osiris was brought back from the dead from his wife. When Seth found out that Osiris returned from the dead, he got Osiris and cut him in to pieces and hind them all over Egypt. Osiris death and leadership was recorded in the Book of the Dead. After Orisis died he become the God of the Underworld. If you were considered good while living, When you die you would be sent to him in the afterlife. Osiris looks green like for fertility, growth and crops.
