  The archetypes of ancient egypt - an overview
Son of Nepthys and Set (or possibly Osiris according to some sources) and nephew to Isis he was regarded as one of the Osirian family.
Nepthys wears the horns and solar disc, or may be shown with the vulture headdress, which symbolises the movement of consciousness from one level to another.
Nepthys' symbol, which is often shown as a part of her headdress in pictograms, is the bowl or chalice and as such reflects all Holy Grail symbology.

  Nephthys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As she was also seen as a bird, she gradually became seen as a vulture, which the egyptians believed never had children due to being believed to all be female (they thought vultures were spontaneously created from air).
This was described in myth by stating that a sexually frustrated Nepthys disguised herself as Isis to appeal to Set, but he did not notice her since he was gay, and had a boyfriend (Ash), but Osiris, Isis' husband, did, mistaking her for Isis, and resulting in the birth of Anubis.
Later, Nepthys, as the air, was identified as the source of rain, which only occurred frequently south of Egypt, and so was seen as the creator of the Nile river.

Having become god of embalming, Anubis became strongly associated with the (currently) mysterious and ancient imiut fetish, present during funerary rites, and Bast, who by this time was goddess of ointment, initially became thought of as his mother.
However, as lesser of the two gods of the underworld, he gradually became considered the son of Osiris, but Osiris' wife, Isis, was not considered his mother, since she too inappropriately was associated with life.
Instead, his mother became considered to be Nepthys, who had become strongly associated with funerary practice, indeed had in some ways become the personification of mourning, and was said to supply bandages to the deceased.
