A royal funerary equipment from the New Kingdom consists of a wooden frame in the form of the god { WSIR } filled with silt and sown with seeds of barely.
It probably symbolized the resurrection of god { WSIR }, and may be the sowing of the seeds symbolized god's { SETH } initial defeat of god { WSIR } [ which probably derived from the observation of pigs, a symbol of god { SETH }, trumpling seed into the ground ] while the sprouting of the barely would have symbolized the resurrection of god { WSIR }.
The OSIRIS BED also symbolized the role of god { WSIR } as a fertility god.
Only 7 OSIRIS BEDS have been found and there is a number of ceramic bricks have a hollow figure of god { WSIR } carved into its upper surface, serving as a magical receptacle for soil and grain, which may be a later development of the OSIRIS BED.
