Product information "Grain Osiris"
In the fourth month of the flood, great Osiris festivals were held all over the country to celebrate the god's power of renewal. The figurative realisation took place with a so-called corn osiris: a model made of clay, into whose osiris-shaped deepened silhouette earth and grain were filled.
The sprouting grain indicates the periodic renewal of vegetation and thus the rebirth of the dead. Ideally, a corn osiris should be a form of gold or silver. In fact, it was made of clay or wood (Osiris bed) and varied in size.
Osiris was a versatile god. As a judge, he decided on the afterlife of the deceased. He was also a fertility god who caused the seeds in the fields to sprout anew after the Nile flood.
Take a clay model, earth, a mixture of grains and water. This recipe from the New Kingdom was supposed to serve as a magical safeguard for rebirth in the afterlife.
