Egyptian God Anubis Pendant Necklace - Made in Egypt - Sterling Silver

This beautiful, handmade Anubis pendant is big enough to make a statement but small enough it would be perfect for layering! Made especially for us in Cairo, Egypt! This pendant is made from sterling silver. The silver is stamped by the Egyptian government certifying the silver content. You can see the stamp on the front of the Anubis in the photos--please look closely.

It will come with a .5mm  sterling silver box chain. It will come shipped in a jewelry box.

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 embalming ceremonies. After a funeral, Anubis would take the deceased by the hand and introduce him into the presence of the sovereign judges where the soul of the deceased would be weighed.

Anubis was the Guardian of Offerings brought to the ceremony by heirs of the deceased and he also guarded the mummy from evil forces in the night. 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.
