The Egyptian deity representing the afterlife and resurrection is Osiris. He presides over the dead and is associated with the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. According to myth, Osiris was murdered by his brother Seth but was resurrected by his wife, Isis. He is depicted as the ruler of the underworld, where he judges souls, determining their fate based on their deeds in life. His resurrection iconically symbolizes hope and new beginnings, heavily influencing Egyptian burial practices and beliefs about life after death.
