Anubis

Anubis (Egyptian Inpu or Anpu) is the ancient Egyptian god of funeral rites and mummification. The origin of his name is reported in connection with the Osiris myth: As crown prince (Inpu), who is in his bandages (imiut), Nephthys (for Isis) hid him. This is how his name Anubis came about. Anubis is called Imiut as an epithet (nickname).
