Osiris, the Greek rendering of the Egyptian Ousir, was originally a nature god, and embodied the spirit of perennial vegetation. Later, he became worshipped as the god of the dead, and was soon given dominion as the highest ranking of the pantheon.

He was the husband of Isis, the brother of Set, and father of Horus.
