In the myths

In Egyptian myth, Anubis is the jackal-headed god of embalming and of the dead. He is said to have wrapped the body of Osiris, the first mummy, and his priests may have worn his mask as they prepared the dead.

In the Book of the Dead he leads the dead into the hall of judgment and weighs their heart against the feather of Maat, the goddess of truth; a heart heavy with wrongdoing is eaten by Ammit.
