Revered from around 2700 BCE to 400 ACE throughout the region, but, particularly on the Giza Plateau and the Nile Delta. She was depicted in monumental carvings, reliefs, sculptures, and wall paintings, and, mentioned in the stele "Great Hymn to Isīs" and the Pyramid Texts.
An Egyptian mother goddess
and protectress of the pharaohs, she was usually portrayed as a human woman wearing a crown of cow horns encircling a sun disc,
she was also sometimes represented as her Animal Totem Hawk.
Isīs was also esteemed by the Greco-Roman cultures who knew her as goddess Stellar Maris, the "Star of the Sea". There were sanctuaries dedicated to her at Pompeii and Delos. The way her devotees portrayed her with her son Horūs was nearly identical with the way the early Christians portrayed the Virgin Mary with her son Jesus. Most of the legends about Isīs, Osirīs, and Horūs are allegorical in nature. There are hidden spiritual truths within the wording of the texts. Take for example the story where Seth dismembers Osirīs and scatters his body parts throughout the landscape. What really happened was that Osirīs suffered intense soul essence loss during his interdimensional encounters and struggles with Seth. Seth, who had stolen and siphoned off this treasury of divine attributes, powers, gifts, light matrix energies, and skills of Osirīs, then wantonly distributed them widely, as spoils of war and blunder booty, to his contingent of cohorts. As a Shamanic Healer, Isīs used her lost soul essence retrieval skills to eventually restore everything back to the way it was in his light matrix. Their son Horūs, assisted her in this Shamanic Healing process.
Isīs also had an abode in
Sumeria where she was called the "Wild Cow Queen". As goddess Nisun (Ninsun,
Ninsuna), she was known for her wisdom and dream interpretation abilities...
