Anubis over 4 Foot Tall Statue. Anubis, God of the Dead, represented with a head of a jackal or simply as a jackal opened the road to the other world and presided over embalmments. Life does not end with death, but rather begins anew in the afterlife where Anubis awaits. God of the dead was the title given to Anubis, but he was more of a guide who would take the dead by the hand and deliver them into the presence of the sovereign judges where the soul of the deceased would be weighed. When the body was embalmed, a priest wearing a jackal mask acted as Anubis's representative. He also was the guardian of the Sacred Esoteric Mysteries.
Made from resin with gold details, this stunning gallery quality Anubis sculpture measures 49"H. That is over 4 Feet! Weighs over 70 lbs!
