h English (en) | The Egyptian goddess '''Isis''' is one of the most widely revered and sublime figures of the [[Divine Mother]] in ancient Mediterranean civilization. Texts written as far back as the third millennium <small>B</small>.<small>C</small>. speak of the divine couple Isis and Osiris. In the Hellenistic period, the worship of this ancient Mother of the Nile spread from its cradle in Egypt and Ethiopia throughout the area of the Mediterranean. In later centuries the worship of Isis stretched to every corner of the Roman Empire, where it became a major religion. Traces of the religion of Isis have been found as far east as Arabia and Asia Minor and as far west as Portugal and Britain. |
