Crouching Anubis
Detail of a wall painting depicts the god Anubis in the Tomb of Khaemwaset (QV44). New Kingdom, 20th Dynasty, ca. 1189-1077 BC. Valley of the Queens, West Thebes.
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.
