Ancient Egyptian Antiques Statue God Of Death Anubis Antique Egyptian Rare BC. Anubis assumed different roles in various contexts.
Depicted as a protector of graves as early as the First Dynasty c. 2890 BC, Anubis was also an embalmer. By the Middle Kingdom c. 2055 - 1650 BC he was replaced by Osiris in his role as lord of the underworld. One of his prominent roles was as a god who ushered souls into the afterlife.
