The celebrations of the Osirian rebirth and resurrection included rituals performed in the presence of several Deities, Gods and Goddesses each having a role to be done in order to resurrect Osiris, such as the Goddess Hekat (Frog) which was responsible for giving life , helping during rebirth and protecting from evil. Grain mummies were made to ensure the mortality in the afterlife, rebirth and regeneration of nature.
