Along with Egypt, the cultural and geographic region known as Mesopotamia was home to some of the world’s earliest civilizations and also the first known form of writing, cuneiform. Many different ethnic groups vied for power in ancient Mesopotamia over the course of antiquity--spanning about 3,000 years--and many of them spoke different languages.

In general, he was figured in human form with the head of an ibis, but sometimes he appears in the shape of that bird.

E perché Anubi, il dio dell'aldilà, sta pesando su una bilancia un cuore umano, affiancato dalla creatura più terrificante mai vista nell’antico Egitto? Migliaia di anni fa, in quella terra lontana ed affascinante chiamata Egitto, le persone veneravano strane divinità con il corpo d’uomo e la testa di animale.

Since the temple embodies all of divine life on a macrocosmic scale, it reflects the sublime qualities of divine regions in the physical world. The soaring columns of the temple’s hypostyle Hall, which leads celebrants into the environment of the Neteru, embody the sacred marshes of time. Auxiliary chambers and the Hall of Records in the temple reflect the majestic halls of the Duat. The divine genealogy of royal persons and thus humanity was recorded here. Additionally, the sacred mound on which the ancients rested at the dawn of time is in the temple’s sanctuary.

Regardless of time or place in popularity, each creation myth was integral to the Egyptians' worldview.
