He had many epithets besides "First of the Westerners" and was also known as "Lord of the Sacred Land" (referencing the area of the desert where necropoleis were located), "He Who is Upon his Sacred Mountain" (referencing the cliffs around a given necropolis where wild dogs and jackals would congregate), "Ruler of the Nine Bows" (a reference to the phrase used for traditional enemies of Egypt who were represented as nine captives bowing before the king), "The Dog who Swallows Millions" (simply referring to his role as a god of death), "Master of Secrets" (since he knew what waited beyond death), "He Who is in the Place of Embalming" (indicating his role in the mummification process), and "Foremost of the Divine Booth" referencing his presence in the embalming booth and burial chamber.</p> <p>As his various epithets make clear, Anubis was central to every aspect of an individual's death experience in the role of protector and even stood with the soul after death as a just judge and guide. Scholar Geraldine Pinch comments on this, <a href="/writing/">writing</a>, "Anubis helped to judge the dead and he and his army of messengers were charged with punishing those who violated tombs or offended the gods" (104). He was especially concerned with controlling the impulses of those who sought to sow disorder or aligned themselves with chaos. Pinch writes:</p> <blockquote> <p>A story recorded in the first millenium BCE tells how the wicked god Set disguised himself as a leopard to approach the body of Osiris. He was seized by Anubis and branded all over with a hot iron. This, according to Egyptian myth, is how the leopard got its spots. Anubis then flayed Set and wore his bloody skin as a warning to evildoers. By this era, Anubis was said to command an army of demon messengers who inflicted suffering and death.

His early role as Lord of the Dead, prior to assimilation into the Osiris myth, was static as he only performed a single solemn function which did not lend itself to elaboration. As the protector of the dead, who invented mummification and so the preservation of the human body, he seems to have been considered too busy to have involved himself in the kinds of stories told about the other Egyptian gods. Stories about Anubis are all along the lines of the one Geraldine Pinch relates above.</p><div class="ad_Mobile_Intext ahe-ad intext-ad-5"> <a href="/membership/?utm_source=whe&utm_medium=remove_ads_button_en&utm_campaign=membership" class="ad_membership_notice" rel="nofollow">Remove Ads</a> <div class="ad_header">Advertisement</div>  <div id='div-adcontainer-AHE_Mobile_Intext_5' class="adcontainer innerwrapper worldhistory_content_dynamic"> </div> </div> <div class="youtube-embed-wrapper"><div class="youtube-embed-container"><iframe data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4aEMptLKwoc?autoplay=0&cc_lang_pref=en" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen title="Anubis: The Egyptian Jackal-Headed God of Mummifaction and the Afterlife"></iframe></div></div> <h3>Worship of the God</h3> <p>The priests of Anubis were male and often wore masks of the god made of wood in performing rituals. The god's cult center was in Upper Egypt at Cynopolis ("the <a href="/city/">city</a> of the dog"), but there were shrines to him throughout the land and he was universally venerated in every part of the country. Scholar Richard H. Wilkinson writes:</p> <blockquote> <p>The chapel of Anubis in the <a href="/article/1100/the-temple-of-hatshepsut/">temple of Hatshepsut</a> at Deir el-Bahri may have given continuity to an earlier shrine of the god in that area and provides an excellent example of the continuing importance of the god long after his assimilation into the cult of Osiris. Because he was said to have prepared the mummy of Osiris, Anubis became the patron god of embalmers and in the Memphite necropolis an area associated with the embalmers seems to have become something of a focal point for the cult of Anubis in the Late Period and Ptolemaic times and has been termed 'the Anubeion' by modern Egyptologists. Masks of the god are known, and priests representing Anubis at the preparation of the mummy and the burial rites may have worn these jackal-headed masks in order to impersonate the god; they were certainly utilized for processional use as this is depicted representationally and is mentioned in late texts. The many two- and three-dimensional representations of Anubis which have survived from funerary contexts indicate the god's great importance in this aspect of <a href="/Egyptian_Religion/">Egyptian religion</a> and amulets of the god were also common.

The Greeks associated him with their god <a href="/Hermes/">Hermes</a> who guided the dead to the afterlife and, according to Egyptologist Salima Ikram,</p> <blockquote> <p>[Anubis] became associated with <a href="/Charon/">Charon</a> in the Graeco-<a href="/disambiguation/Roman/">Roman</a> period and St. Christopher in the early Christian period...It is probable that Anubis is represented as a super-canid, combining the most salient attributes of serveral types of canids, rather than being just a jackal or a dog. (35-36)</p> </blockquote> <p>This "super-canid" offered people the assurance that their body would be respected at death, that their soul would be protected in the afterlife, and that they would receive fair judgment for their life's work. These are the same assurances sought by people in the present day, and it is easy to understand why Anubis was such a popular and enduring god. His image is still among the most recognizable of all the Egyptian gods, and replicas of his statuary and tomb paintings remain popular, especially among dog owners, in the modern day.</p><div class="intext_6"></div></p> </article> <div id="ci_rating_wrapper"> <div class="rating_label filter_label">Did you like this definition?</div> <div id="ci_rating_buttons_wrapper"> <div class="rating_button up base" data-rating="1"></div> <div class="rating_button down base" data-rating="-1"></div> </div> </div> <div id="sections_below_links"> <p> <a href="/interestemails/?tags=Ankh+Anubis+Early_Dynastic_Period_In_Egypt+egypt+Egyptian_Burial+Egyptian_Religion+Ghosts_in_Ancient_Egypt+Predynastic_Period_in_Egypt" class="topic_subscribe outline_button below_article">Subscribe to topic</a> <a href="#ci_related_content_outer_wrapper" class="outline_button">Related Content</a> <a href="#books_preview" class="outline_button">Books</a> <a href="#citation_info" class="outline_button">Cite This Work</a> <a href="#ci_author_and_copyright" class="outline_button">License</a> </p> </div> <div class="editorial_review_notice"> <span class="editorial_review_header">Editorial Review</span> This article has been reviewed by our editorial team before publication to ensure accuracy, reliability and adherence to academic standards in accordance with our <a href="/static/editorial-policy/">editorial policy</a>. </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="ad_Flexi_BottomLeft ahe-ad"> <a href="/membership/?utm_source=whe&utm_medium=remove_ads_button_en&utm_campaign=membership" class="ad_membership_notice" rel="nofollow">Remove Ads</a> <div class="ad_header">Advertisement</div>  <div id="div-adcontainer-AHE_Flexi_BottomLeft" class="adcontainer worldhistory_below_content"> </div> </div> <style> .map_container.il { border: none; } .map_container h3 { text-align: center; } </style> <div id="references"> <h2>Bibliography</h2> <ul id="reference_list" class="ref_list bibliography"> <li id="bibID__968e6b1dabe9e03e240e28d3f355d827"> <cite class="bib_text"><a href="/books/0816082162/" rel="sponsored">Bunson, M. <i>Encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt.</i> Gramercy Books., 1991.</a></cite> </li> <li id="bibID__e45b79cfe53da44da44dd015d37a71db"> <cite class="bib_text"><a href="/books/0140262520/" rel="sponsored">David, R. <i>Religion and Magic in Ancient Egypt.</i> Penguin Books, 2003.</a></cite> </li> <li id="bibID__6f409f001ba5278c527e46d73e21ffce"> <cite class="bib_text"><a href="/books/9774166876/" rel="sponsored">Ikram, S. <i>Death and Burial in Ancient Egypt.</i> The American University in Cairo Press, 2015.</a></cite> </li> <li id="bibID__5d93562640285596ad32456afc576d64"> <cite class="bib_text"><a href="/books/0195170245/" rel="sponsored">Pinch, G. <i>Egyptian Mythology: A Guide to the Gods, Goddesses, and Traditions of Ancient Egypt.</i> Oxford University Press, 2004.</a></cite> </li> <li id="bibID__e4fe047a7b44e7fe3ab0ac70a0cb21d8"> <cite class="bib_text"><a href="/books/048621866X/" rel="sponsored">Wallis Budge, E.
