I don't know about purpose, but I gather 
Isis was a woman, brother of Osiris, and 
apparently the pair of them had 
something to do with civilizing some 
ancient Egyptians. I'm tending to 
speculate along the lines that those two 
might seem like "Masters" to some 
people. I wonder if males might've been 
generally seen as more applicable, (per 
traditional notions about roles), 
especially in the old old days.

Speculatively,
