A canopic jar, in ancient Egyptian funerary rituals, is a covered vessel of wood, stone, pottery, or ceramic in which mummified entrails removed from the body during the mummification process are buried. The earliest canopic jars, which came into use during the Old Kingdom (ca. 2575 - 2130 BC), had simple lids, but during the Middle Kingdom (ca. 1938 - 1630 BC) the jars were decorated with carved human representations. Heads. From the Nineteenth Dynasty until the end of the New Kingdom (1539-1075 BC), the heads represented the four sons of the god Horus (Duamutef with the head of a jackal, Qabasnov with the head of a falcon, Imset with the head of a human, and Hapi with the head of a baboon). . From the Twenty-first to the Twenty-fifth Dynasty (1075-664 BC), the practice of returning mummified entrails to the body began, leading to the emergence of “fake” canopic vessels, which are vessels shaped like images of the Sons of Horus but without the internal cavity.
