Ancient Egyptian Canopic Jar: Imsety

Canopic jars were used by ancient Egyptians to store and protect the mummified organs of the dead. The four sons of Horus, depicted on the lids, are jackal-headed Duamutef who protects the stomach, baboon-headed Hapi who protects the lungs, human-headed Imsety who protects the liver, and falcon-headed Qebehsenuef who protects the intestines.

This jar depicts Imsety. Files for the other jars in the set can be purchased from my Gumroad store at https://gumroad.com/voxinaudita
