Se-Osiris, Ancient Egyptian Wizard

A look at the magic-filled legends of Se-Osiris, Ancient Egyptian Wizard, who, as a pre-teen, traveled to the underworld and later dueled with a reincarnated sorcerer. Setne II, an Ancient Egyptian story that's survived on papyrus, tells the tale of a Dante's inferno-like descent into the underworld, and a flurry of magical duels and reincarnation. Oh, and the person doing the magic is a 12-year-old kid. Highlights include: • A protective mother who turns into a goose to fly to save her sorcerer son • The weighing of hearts • The jackal-headed god Anubus • Ammit, devourer of the dead • A trip to the land of the dead   For all of our shownotes, including our sources, visit buriedsecretspodcast.com.
