Description: metal ashtray features Isis ,her couriers, and fish dimensions as shownunmarked Isis was an Egyptian goddess of healing fertiltiy,magic, childern, and women .As mourner, she was a principal deity in rites connected with the dead; as magical healer, she cured the sick and brought the deceased to life; and as mother, she was a role model for all women. I was curious as to how Isis was assicated with fish- Set ,Osiris' younger brother, organized a lavish party for the Egyptian gods and goddesses. During the party, he tricked Osiris into entering a magical casket. Set then sealed the casket and threw it into the Nile With Osiris out of the way, Set went on to become the ruler of Egypt.After months of searching, Isis,Osiris' wife , eventually found her husband’s body in Byblos. She tried to hide it from Set; however, Set got wind of it and proceeded to cut Osiris body into 14 pieces. Once he was through with dismembering the body, he scattered the pieces across the earth. Isis again went on a search to retrieve the dismembered body parts of her husband.According to the myth, Isis found thirteen out of the fourteen pieces. The 14th piece, Osiris’s penis, was eaten by a fish. Aided by deities such as Thoth, Anubis and Nephthys, Isis was able to put Osiris’s body back together. She then used her magic to resurrect Osiris.
