Egyptian olive greenish / blue faience Isis amulet, the goddess is depicted in a seated position; the amulet is pierced horizontally for suspension. Isis was the sister-wife to Osiris and the mother of Horus. Best known mythologically as the devoted wife of Osiris, whose body she sought, after his murder by his brother Seth. She is said to have made the first mummy from the dismembered limbs of Osiris, using her wings to breathe life into him and magically conceiving her son, Horus in the process.

Isis was the goddess of 10,000 names; the most widely worshipped deity of the ancient Mediterranean world. She in all her forms has been the central feminine archetype of God worshipped throughout the near east and Europe for thousands of years. Pendants like this one were considered amulets of protection. Egyptians wore jewelry not only for its inherent value but for the protection of their gods and goddesses. The crown consists of the solar disk and the horns of the cow symbolizing the moon.
