Portable Shrine of Anubis
This carrying chest is surmounted by the Anubis, protector of the gates to the Underworld, seated atop a gilded chest. The details of the animal are gilded except for the claws, which are made of silver. The eyes are made of alabaster and obsidian. The chest is in the form of a shrine, decorated with friezes of the Djed and Tyet signs, which are symbols of stability and protection.
From the Tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62). Valley of the Kings, West Thebes. Now in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. JE 61444
