Anubis

The culture of ancient Egypt fascinates both researchers and creative individuals who are trying to connect the fictional worlds with pharaohs, deities, tombs, sarcophagi and mummies. The mystical god Anubis, who led the souls to the palaces of the underworld, became popular not only in the land of deserts and the overflowing Nile, but also in the modern world.

Anubis, in Egyptian mythology, is the god and patron of the dead, the son of the god of vegetation Osiris and Nephthys, the sister of Isis. 

Newborn Anubis Neftis hid from his spouse Seth in the swamps of the Nile Delta. The mother goddess Isis found a young god and raised him.

Later, when Seth killed Osiris, Anubis, organizing the burial of the late god, wrapped his body in a fabric soaked in a special composition, creating the first mummy. Therefore, Anubis is considered the creator of burial rites, patron of the necropolis and is called the god of embalming. Anubis helped preserve the body of Osiris. Anubis also helped to judge the dead and accompanied the righteous to the throne of Osiris.

In the aforementioned mural "The Rite of Anubis," the god and patron of the dead Anubis returns the heart of the deceased to weigh it at the court of Osiris. Anubis was portrayed as a wolf, a jackal or a wild dog. Sub black (or a man with a jackal or dog head). The daughter of Anubis was considered a Kebut, cultivating libations in honor of the dead. The most ancient mention of Anubis is contained in the texts of the pyramids of the ancient kingdom in the 23rd century BC, where it was associated exclusively with royal burials.

In the Hellenistic era, Anubis united the Greeks with Hermes in the syncretic image of Hermanuvis. This god as a magician is mentioned in Roman literature. The center of the cult of Anubis is the city of the 17th cathedral of Kas (Kinopol - "dog city").
