Anubis is often portrayed as a jackal, a canine that lives in the desert and that could be seen roaming around the graves. It was Anubis that took care of the deceased Osiris’ body and prepared it for rebirth. Anubis is therefore the god of mummification and lord of the burial ground.

Crow flipped a historically Republican district in 2018 and has been an incredibly hardworking congressperson, including serving as one of the impeachment managers prosecuting Donald Trump. He was one of the last people out of the House chambers today, according to the Denver Post:
As rioters attempted to break down the doors of the U.S. House of Representatives, and police pointed their guns through the broken glass of those chamber doors, Rep. Jason Crow of Aurora was watching from the gallery.
“They evacuated the folks on the floor but those of us in the gallery actually got trapped for like 20 minutes as the rioters stormed the stairwells and the doors. So, Capitol Police actually locked the doors of the chamber and started piling furniture up on the doors to barricade them, while holding their guns out,” he recalled.
“I got into ranger mode a little bit,” the Army combat veteran said. “Most of the members didn’t know how to use the emergency masks, so I was helping them get their emergency masks out of the bags and helped instruct a bunch of folks on how to put it on and how to use it. I wasn’t going to leave the House floor until every member was gone, so I waited until we were able to get everybody out.”
Mr. Rogers said always look for the helpers. Rep. Crow is a hero.
