Is your child captivated by Egyptian mythology? Do you observe their eyes light up at the sight of pyramids on TV? It's quite relatable as the Egyptians have left behind a plethora of mysterious tombs and temples throughout the ages, scattered across the deserts. From the iconic pyramids to the peculiar temples that housed thousands of mummified dogs, the Egyptians have both amazed and bewildered us countless times. One can't help but wonder what other hidden treasures lie beneath the literal sands of time. When delving into Egyptian art, a prominent figure continually emerges - Anubis, the God of the underworld, responsible for ensuring that mischievous mummies stay put in their crypts. The Egyptians' meticulous attention to their tombs and necropolises indicates the paramount importance they placed on a favorable afterlife, justifying their reverence for this God with the distinctive head of a jackal. Anubis, the one who kept the intricate realm of the Egyptian afterlife functioning seamlessly, guided the souls of the embalmed to their deserved place post-mortem, provided everything in the tomb appeared in order. Hence, although your child may exude an air of intimidation when adorned as Anubis, they are, in fact, embodying one of the benevolent deities. While Anubis was at times depicted in his complete jackal form, this costume portrays him in his humanoid guise, more frequently depicted and easier to replicate. The gold, black, and turquoise hues of the neck and headpiece lend the costume the dignified aesthetic befitting of Anubis. Crowned with a striking jackal mask, this Anubis ensemble cuts a commanding figure, dissuading any Halloween mummies from crossing this formidable guard dog.
