Countless bronze statues depicting Isis feeding her son Horus emerge from ancient Egypt's later periods. As Osiris' wife, Isis embodies both feminine perfection and the grandmother of the royal lineage. During the first millennium BC, intense devotion to her spreads throughout the region, as seen in her Nubian temple on Philae Island and the rapid expansion of her cult across the entire Mediterranean Sea area.
