Isis
ISIS - her name means "seat" or "throne"; in ancient
Egypt she was regarded as the mother of all Kings. In myth she sought
her dead husband and brother, Osiris, conceived her son Horus by him,
and mourned him together with her Sister Nepthys. Isis was regarded as
the "Eye of Ra" and was worshipped as "Great of Magic." She was
known to protect her son Horus from snakes, predators and other
dangers and thus she became known as a protector of mortal Children
also. This beautiful relief was originally found in the Temple of Kalabsha, Egypt. It dates from circa 300 B.C. It's 23" high and 9" wide, and is affixed with sturdy wall hanging hardware on the back.
