EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Anubis Canopic Jars from the 22nd Dynasty, dating back to c1550BC-1069 BC. These remarkable containers were specifically designed to store the internal organs of deceased individuals during the process of mummification. Each jar is adorned with a stopper representing one of Horus's four sons, who served as funerary gods responsible for safeguarding these vital organs. Qebehsenuef, depicted with the head of a falcon, was entrusted with protecting the intestines. Hapy, characterized by a baboon head, diligently watched over the lungs. Duamutef, portrayed as a jackal-headed figure, fulfilled his duty in guarding the stomach. Lastly, Imsety took on human form and carefully looked after the liver. Displayed at Louvre Museum in vivid color and detail, this photograph captures not only ancient Egyptian artistry but also religious beliefs surrounding death and deity worship. It serves as a powerful reminder of Egypt's rich cultural heritage and its deep connection to spirituality. With its intricate craftsmanship and historical significance spanning centuries, this artifact transports viewers back in time to an era when mummification rituals played an integral role in Egyptian burial practices. The Anubis Canopic Jars stand as testament to humanity's eternal quest for preservation even beyond death itself.
