disappear into the
underworld with all of
the crops. He was the

The goddess Nephthys is
seen as the goddess of
divine assistance but also
death. Nephthys was the
wife of her brother Seth
and the mother of Anubis
by her brother Osiris.
Brother and sister was
seen as an acceptable
element in the lives of the
Egyptian gods and
goddesses, retaining the
sacred bloodline. Seth
murdered Osiris and
Nephthys helped the
widowed goddess Isis
collect the scattered limbs
of Osiris and helped with
his resurrection.
