Osiris
The mythical Egyptian divine king and judge in the netherworld. Following his death at the hands of his brother, Seth, Osiris fathered the royal god Horus. In funerary ritual, the dead became Osiris. First limited to the royal dead, from the beginning of the Middle Kingdom (2052 BC) this hope was extended to all the deceased.
