#EgyptianAnubis This is Anubis, he is an Egyptian protector. A fun fact about this amazing creature; Anubis was the god of embalming and the dead. Since Jackals were often seen in cemeteries, the ancient Egyptians believed Anubis watched over the dead. Anubis was also the god who watched over the process of mummifying people when they died. Priests often wore a mask of Anubis during mummification ceremonies. #Anubis #Egypt #Egytian #Egyptiangod
