Anubis, known as the Greek name for the jackal-headed god in Egyptian mythology, is closely associated with mummification and the afterlife. Among his significant roles was presiding over the passage of souls into the realm of the dead. He played a crucial role during the "Weighing of the Heart" ceremony, where a soul's fate was determined based on the weight of their heart against a feather.

This figurine captures Anubis in the afterlife, depicted kneeling with the scales in hand beside the Ankh altar, symbolizing the key to the afterlife. As the deity of the dead, skulls surround him, emphasizing his divine realm. According to Egyptian belief, souls heavier than a feather would face consumption by Ammit, while those lighter would ascend to a heavenly existence.
