History Egyptian Triad of Osiris Dedia stele the master builder. Isis Osiris & Horus Artifact Sculpture Statue 14" www.Neo-Mfg.com

Size 14" tall
-------------------------------------------------------------

The Dedia stele resembles a small chapel. Its rich decoration and dedications to the gods of Abydos suggest that it was consecrated to Dedia and his ancestors in this ancient holy city, dedicated to the cult of Osiris (god of the dead). Its elaborate composition is worthy of its designer, who was the master draftsman of the temple of Amun.

Represents a tabernacle for the god Osiris, his wife Isis, and their son, the falcon god Horus. These three divinities seem to emerge out of the stone from which they are carved. The large statues of gods in the rock-cut temple of Ramesses II at Abu Simbel, hewn into the rock at the rear of the cavern when the hypogeum was hollowed out, are the best-known examples of this type of statue.

Osiris clutches the crook and flail across his chest and wears the atef crown and false beard.

Left of Osiris, Isis wearing the sun disc and cow horn crown of Hathor with a hand placed on the shoulder of Osiris. The other hand holds the remnants of her signature amulet, the Tyet knot.

Right of Osiris his son Horus, the falcon headed sky god, strides forward. His hand also seems to comfort the divinity creating a symmetrical pattern of arms that harmonizes with the crossed arms of Osiris.

Dedia descended from five generations of master draftsmen of the temple of Amun, now world-famous by the name of Karnak. Such a family structure ensured the preservation of artistic, technical, and formal traditions from one generation to the next. Dedia held office during a particularly glorious period in the history of the temple: the pharaoh Sethos I decided to create a huge pillared room-the largest ever constructed. No doubt Dedia was put in charge of designing the vast scenes depicting the king among the gods that even today adorn the high walls of the famous hypostyle hall.
