No. He was never buried, but put into a sarcophagus by Set and then heaved into the water, a tree then grew around the sarcophagus, and when it was cut down a sweet smell came from it and Isis knew where to find Osiris, Set too heard of the sweet smelling tree and after Isis had prepared the body to live again he cut it to pieces, and set those into the river, Isis went in search of the pieces so as to revive Osiris, she found all but one piece and this piece she recreated with magic (it was his phallus) and in this way Osiris lived again, but he departed from the earth to live in the underworld where he ruled as it's king as he had ruled above it. Horus, his son, became the new king and is identified as the god who is the living pharaoh.
