May and June in Egypt is the worst time of the year. For 50 days in a row, the wind blows from the desert, carrying hot sand and dust with it. Sand creaks on the teeth, penetrates into the clothes. Everything dies from the heat. The Egyptians believed that Osiris died then. In the middle of summer, the terrible wind of the desert subsides, the Nile floods, nature comes to life, the fields and trees turn green - this is Osiris came to life again.

1. Gods and priests. The ancient Egyptians believed that gods were everywhere. And on the earth where people live, and in another, invisible world, where the sun god goes at night and where people go after death. The gods created the world and do not let it perish. They control people and nature.








2. What did the Egyptians tell about their gods. Amon-Ra is the king of the gods, the sun god, the creator god who created everything that exists. Every morning Amon-Ra appears in the east. As long as the day lasts, he sails in his boat through the sky. A round solar disk sparkles on his head. His way maintains order in the world. Plants come to life, people and animals rejoice, birds sing. Amon-Ra with his companions floats across the sky.


But now the day is drawing to a close, because the boat of Amon-Ra is descending from heaven. At the western edge of the sky, she floats into the gates of the underworld. Here Amon-Ra enters into a mortal battle with the god of darkness, a ferocious serpent, whose name is Apep. The battle continues all night. When the serpent is defeated, the crown of the solar god shines again, heralding the coming of a new day 2. What the Egyptians told about their gods. The god Amon-Ra in the form of a cat fights with the god of darkness Apep.


2. What did the Egyptians tell about their gods. The Egyptians represented the earth as a masculine principle, which personifies the god Geb. Often he was depicted as a man with the head of a snake: after all, the snake is the most “earthly” animal. The Egyptians represented the goddess of the sky Nut as a huge cow, whose body is dotted with stars. In the beginning, Earth and Heaven were inseparable: Nut was the wife, and Geb was the husband. But they constantly quarreled among themselves because Nut every morning eats his children - the stars - and in the evening gives birth to them again. And then the air god Shu separated the spouses: the sky rose high above the earth.




The god of wisdom and knowledge, Thoth, enjoyed special respect among the Egyptians. He invented counting and writing to preserve and transmit knowledge. The patron of scribes, he himself serves as a scribe with the gods, writes down all their decisions. Thoth is usually depicted with the head of an ibis bird and a scribe's palette. In addition, Thoth is the god of the moon. At night, he replaces the sun god Amon-Ra in the sky 2. What did the Egyptians tell about their gods.


3. The myth of Osiris and Isis. The Egyptians told such a myth about one of their most beloved gods. Osiris was once king in Egypt. Big dark eyes sparkled in his swarthy face, and his hair was shiny and black, like the very fertile land of the Nile Valley. Good Osiris taught the Egyptians how to grow grain and grapes, how to bake bread.


3. The myth of Osiris and Isis. The younger brother of Osiris, the god Set, looked different: he had small evil eyes and red hair. Set was the god of the desert and sandstorms. Set envied Osiris and hated him. He decided to kill Osiris. Once Seth appeared at a feast in the royal palace. The servants carried behind him a large luxurious wooden coffin, decorated with images and inscriptions. “Here is the precious coffin! Seth said. Whoever needs it, will get it!” The guests were not surprised by the gift: the Egyptians were preparing for life in the land of the dead from their youth. One by one, the guests went into the coffin, but it was too big for them. Now it's Osiris' turn. As soon as he lay down on the bottom of the wooden box, the servants of Set slammed the lid. They lifted the coffin with the body of Osiris, brought it to the banks of the Nile and threw it into the water. Osiris is dead.




When Horus matured, he decided to take revenge on the insidious Seth for the death of his father and entered into single combat with him. With the help of Isis in a fierce fight, Horus defeated the enemy 3. The myth of Osiris and Isis. Horus is usually depicted as a falcon or a man with the head of a falcon. Horus defeats Set in the guise of a donkey.


Isis wandered for a long time. searching in the swamps of the delta for the coffin with the body of her husband. Finding it, she miraculously revived Osiris. God resurrected, but did not want to stay on earth. He became a pharaoh and a judge in the kingdom of the dead, and Horus was the patron of the earthly pharaohs. Isis became the intercessor and protector of all wives and mothers. The most difficult time of the year in Egypt is the drought period in May June. The Egyptians believed that then Osiris dies. But then the waters of the Nile overflowed, the fields turned green and the trees, it was Osiris who came to life again. 3. The myth of Osiris and Isis.


4. What did the Egyptians tell about the "realm of the dead". The Egyptians believed that after death, people go west to the underground kingdom of Osiris - the Duat (or Dat). There is light and warmth, blue water flows in the canals, grain ripens in the fields and sweet dates grow on palm trees. The path to the afterlife is a difficult and dangerous test. Spirits and demons lie in wait for the deceased at every step and try to lead him astray. In order not to succumb to their power, a person must continuously repeat spells and unravel the inscriptions on the numerous gates leading to the kingdom of the dead. Having passed all the gates, the deceased meets with Anubis, the manager in the kingdom of the dead, who escorts him to Osiris.


Anubis is the god of embalming (mummification). He also acts as an assistant to Osiris at the judgment of the dead. Depicted as a jackal or a man with a head, scale 4. What the Egyptians told about the "kingdom of the dead." Anubis with a mummy. Painting on the wall of the tomb of Sennedjem


4. What did the Egyptians tell about the "realm of the dead". The deceased, standing in white robes, pronounces an oath: I did no evil. I didn't kill. I didn't order the kill. I didn't steal. I didn't lie. I didn't cause tears. I didn't raise my hand to the weak. I didn't envy. I didn't swear. I did not speak ill of the king. I did not neglect the gods. I'm clean, I'm clean, I'm clean, I'm clean! The gods check the veracity of the oath: on one scale they put the soul of the deceased, and on the other - the figure of the goddess of truth - Maat. Balance means that the deceased did not lie: he was a kind and righteous person. The gods accept such a person into the realm of the dead. If the deceased lied, his soul outweighed the figure of Maat, then such a non-participant is devoured by the monster Amt, who stands next to the scales.




Maat is the goddess of truth, justice and harmony. Depicted as a seated woman with an ostrich feather on her head, sometimes winged. Wife of the god Thoth. 4. What did the Egyptians tell about the "realm of the dead". Amt is the "devourer of souls" of sinners. Depicted most often in the form of a lion with the head of a crocodile


In order for a person to move to the afterlife after death, it was necessary to preserve his body. Therefore, after death, the human body was dried, impregnated with resin and wrapped in thin bandages - it turned into a mummy. Then the mummy was placed in a sarcophagus (coffin), on which spells were written and gods were depicted. The tomb where the sarcophagus stood was considered the home of the deceased. 4. What did the Egyptians tell about the "realm of the dead". Egyptian pyramids - tombs of the pharaohs 25
