Anubis is one of the most iconic gods of ancient Egypt. Anubis is the Greek version of his name, the ancient Egyptians knew him as Anpu (or Inpu). Anubis was an extremely ancient deity whose name appears in the oldest mastabas of the Old Kingdom and the Pyramid Texts as a guardian and protector of the dead.
The Anubis Shrine, discovered in the tomb of the 18th Dynasty Pharaoh Tutankhamun, is a significant and captivating artifact from ancient Egypt. Found in the Valley of the Kings in 1922 by the famous Egyptologist Howard Carter, this shrine was part of the extensive burial equipment that accompanied the young pharaoh to the afterlife.
The shrine is beautifully crafted, depicting Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god associated with mummification and the afterlife, in a form of a jackal. This artifact was not just a piece of funerary art but also a symbol of protection, ensuring the safe passage of Tutankhamun's spirit into the afterlife. The Anubis Shrine is a testament to the intricate artistry and profound religious beliefs of the ancient Egyptians, reflecting their fascination with the journey to the afterlife.
