Maybe it's referring to the Phoenix.
I have heard references to a creature that rises from ashes. What is this referring to? What is the story behind it?
My ex-wife keeps rising up from the ashes. She's a real ash hole.
You're all wrong ! LOL. It was RODAN !

It appears, the earliest record of the phoenix mythology was in ancient Egypt - the Bennu bird.
