Egyptian God Anubis, Wooden statue, for Pagan Altar kit

Anubis, Egyptian god of afterlife for home altar. Natural wooden figurine.

This handcrafted wooden figurine majestically depicts Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god of mummification, the afterlife, and protector of graves. With his distinctive jackal or canine head, Anubis plays a crucial role in guiding the deceased through the underworld and presiding over the weighing of the heart ceremony. He is a symbol of protection, guidance, and the sacred transition into the afterlife. This meticulously carved wooden piece brings a solemn and powerful presence, making it a meaningful addition to a personal collection, a striking decorative accent for a home, or a profound focal point on an sacred altar.

In this portrayal, Anubis is depicted in full stature, in a traditional Egyptian stance—standing with the head of a jackal, embodying his iconic form. He is clad in the garb of a high priest, reflecting his sacred duties in the funerary rites. In his hands, he solemnly holds a staff, symbolizing his authority and guidance, and the ankh, the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic character that represents life, symbolizing his power over eternal existence. His majestic and solemn presence encapsulates the reverence and ancient power that Anubis represents, profoundly connecting the living with the mysteries of the deceased and the journey through the afterlife.

This wooden figurine is designed with a flat back and features a special loop/hook, allowing it to be easily mounted on a wall.
