  • Title: Anubis god of the Dead
  • Artist: Son of Anubis Ratha
  • Description: Anubis, who the ancient Egyptians called Ienpw (phonetically "Yinepu"), is the mysterious canid funerary deity of ancient Egypt. Even the meaning of his name is unknown -- speculations range from "Royal Child" to having derived from the world for "to putrefy". Both certainly fit the deity, who was at various points in time of Egyptian history known as the lord of the dead before Osiris and, later, became popularly known as the son of Osiris.

  • Very good, I love the reference you found (saves it)
    The ankh is ok, but in his other hand I'd put that Scale of Anubis.
    The wings goes well, but not that well, it's just ok.
    All in all, loved this entry.

  • Love Anubis! Favorite Egyptian god. However, I think it could've done without the wings and mabye just the akn instead of both.
