This website serves as a resource hub for information about the Osireion in Abydos, offering links to a wide range of materials, including historical texts, archaeological studies, photos, videos, and more.

The Osireion, located in Abydos, Egypt, is an ancient structure of significant historical and architectural interest. Believed to date back to the reign of Pharaoh Seti I, this enigmatic monument features unique design elements that have fascinated researchers and visitors alike. Its mysterious purpose and innovative construction techniques make it a key site for understanding ancient Egyptian architecture.

The links and resources provided here are drawn from a range of sources, including peer-reviewed academic research as well as independent or alternative perspectives. While the latter may not be supported by empirical evidence and are often viewed critically by the scholarly community — sometimes even contradicting established scientific consensus — they are included here to illustrate the diversity of interpretations surrounding the Osireion. Readers are encouraged to approach such perspectives with critical thinking. The primary aim of this website remains to offer accurate, evidence-based information that highlights the unique features of the Osireion.

In addition to the curated resources, the website includes a 3D model of the Osireion. This model is a structural reconstruction based on the sources available to me and aims to give visitors an impression of its extraordinary and fascinating architectural design.
