Necklace with Duamutef amulet

“During the mummification process, the internal organs were removed and mummified separately. The organs were then placed in jars with lids decorated with the heads of four deities: Hapi, Qebehsenuef, Imsety, and Duamutef. These deities protected the internal organs. Duamutef had the head of a jackal and protected the stomach.” (Jennifer Wegner, label text, “Sacred Adornment: Jewelry as Belief in Ancient Egypt”)
