OsirianLegend by Leon Dixon

The Osirian legend is the bedrock of the ancient Egyptian religious mythology. A
testament to Osiris’ impact on the ancient Egyptians is given by R. T. Runnel Clark in his
book Myth and Symbol in Ancient Egypt, wherein he writes:1 “once synthesized, he lived
on for nearly three thousand years in the hearts of the people as a symbol of the great
human drama.” What is known of the legend is derived from archeology and the texts
that have been found. It evolved over several millennia, stretching back some sixthousand
years. And due to its complexity, this work is presented merely as a primer.
