(後兩張攝自羅浮宮的埃及藏品)
奧西利斯(Osiris)是地神凱布和天之女神奴特所生的長子,他澤被埃及全土使得國境之內風調雨順,歲歲平安,把人們從茹毛飲血的時代導向文明之路。奧西利斯的弟弟塞特(Seth)非常忌妒他,遂用計將他裝入一個盒子中,流放到尼羅河中。這盒子流到了菲尼基的比布羅斯港,然後奧西利斯的妻子伊西斯(Isis)帶回埃及。
塞特發現了裝有奧西利斯的盒子之後,遂將盒子碎成片片,身體被分成14塊拋棄在埃及各地,所幸皇后極力搶救,得到老鷹族的幫忙,找到所有的肢體,並且感動天神使其復活,之後生下了霍魯斯(亦有網頁說是皇后看顧盒子的期間她生下了霍魯斯)。
荷魯斯長大後,理所當然地上演了一幕王子復仇記,奪回法老王的寶座。但不幸地被叔叔傷了右眼,後人感佩他的勇氣,因此以他的右眼〔亦即是「烏加之眼」〕作為神聖的圖騰膜拜,尋求保護及避邪作用。
「烏加之眼」不是什麼寶物,而是一種護身符。
神秘的埃及烏加眼,是王權守護神霍魯斯(Horus)的失落之眼。
左眼代表月亮,右眼代表太陽,象徵圓滿與完美之意,是埃及的護身符。
眼睛各部位之總和近於完美,同時象徵了完好之軀。
