Anubis Egyptian Treasure Box From Tut's Tomb Decorative

This statue of Anubis as a black jackal was found guarding the entrance to the treasury chamber of King Tutankhamun. Anubis sits calming in an alert post on a golden treasure box decorated with important figures as part of King Tut's burial. Anubis is essentially a funerary god, venerated as the lord of the necropolis. He guides the dead in the next world, watches over them and presides over mummification.
