Osiris Honored and Disgraced by Set, aka "Saturn"
I am comparing the Montauk Osiris depiction with the Teotihuacan-Osiris depiction.
The Montauk version is obviously pre-flood, with Osiris as a Sacred, honored God.
However, so many of the regions of Osiris, the A-ats, are located in what are now the floors of the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean, including the area between the Montauk Lighthouse and Block Island, where this portrait is found.
Then the flood happened, inundating so much of the Osirian territory. Can you imagine thousands of years of devotion to a God of all Gods, only to have his kingdom wiped out by Mother Nature, Earth Mother, herself?
So post-flood, I am theorizing the God of all Gods was massively disgraced, and his depiction on the Western Wall of Teotihuacan is twofold.
On the left of the staircase, Tehoti, the new God of all Gods is standing to the right of a round headed figure at his feet. That round headed figure is Soker-Osiris, as in Soccer ball, as in the supreme insult was to kick around the former God of all Gods like a piece of trash because of the flood cataclysm.
And another name for Osiris was Kah-Kah, mimicing the call of the Raven bird. But even this name went through a transition, from God of all Gods, to the modern slang for "defecation" after the flood. In fact, the world was allegedly divided into the 85 regions of Osiris, with too many being below the catastrophic floods which wiped out his kingdom. Imagine being the God of all the Earth, only to be wiped out by rainstorms, earthquakes, landslides, and mudflows! Not a good resume, hence "Kah-Kah" became 'defication', even to this day.
I believe I have captured the "before and after" of the Osiris image, from Montauk to Teotihuacan, both honored and disgraced.
There is more to the story, of course, and it certainly is a brain teaser for amateurs like myself.
I am now speculating on the role that the planet Saturn must have played, in the world destruction and flood epochs, given its very harsh depictions in ancient mythology. Set, aka Saturn, aka Satan, aka Kronus with the Sickle, is shown holding the decapitated head of Osiris. According to ancient legends, one of the world cataclysms was caused by an interplanetary collision, witnessed by humans, which belched out a blue gigantic fireball from one of the planets, with red flaming contrails. I now believe this ejected flaming monstrosity became the "blue demon", the Kala of ancient Hindus, which did not physically hit earth, but the orbit of this flaming spiral passed though earth's atmosphere incinerating all Earth-global life at high altitudes.
Another huge consequence would be the vaporizing of ice glaciars, causing massive rain clouds after the heat stress passed, and world floods.
Is this why Saturn probably became Satan, became Set, became Kronus, of ancient mythologies? Is this why the circular object at the feet of the Tehotee bird probably transcended from "God of all Gods" to Soker-Osiris, "God of the Dead". On the funny side, I think we have the earliest example of the sport called "Soccer", where the players kick the head of Soker-Osiris through the circular goal, as if in constant insult to the former "God of All Gods", now becoming a "foot-ball" to be kicked around.
And of course, the rings of Saturn probably are the debris field from this interplanetary collision.
Late addition: In reading and translating an ancient language of the Central Americas called Quechua, I came across a naming reference that is very interesting.
On page 98 of Grammatica Quechua, by Antonio Cusihuaman, is the comparison names of
"Satuko, Saturnino", for the Quechuan and Spanish equivalents.
Ergo, therefore, Set is Saturn. And the Ahh-Set-Tekaus, the Aztecs revered Saturn!
To me, on the philosophical side, as a culture there were the ultimate dichotomies of life: Yins and Yans, Suns and Moons, Peace and War, Love and Hate, Good and Bad, Overworld and Underworld, LIfe and Death.
And as a culture, your tribal leaders could choose religions, Sun-Ra,Horus,Aton; Moon-Athena; Venus-Ishtar; Saturn-Set, Mercury-Mackaw-Ra, etc.
And you could make a statement that you as a culture were on the "lovey-dovey peace side", let's say, or the warlike terror side, Set and Saturn and Kala.
But the ultimate history lesson here is that Saturn destroyed the massive kingdom of Osiris, probably by the interplanetary collision, belching out the blue plasma fireball with red contrails, which first incinerated all the high altitude life, then melted the ice and caused the world flood. Hence the Blue Demon Kala of Asian fame, and the Set BEAST cradling the head of Osiris, of Egyptian fame.
Saturn caused one of the major world flood, incinerations, and humanoid extinctions!
This is only my humble, amateur opinion.
That is the lesson to me.
