Reading edition
The illustration represents the set of Canopic vases dating from the Thirtieth Dynasty, made for the priest T'et-bast-auf-ānkh, and found by Prof. Petrie at Hawara (Hawara, Biahmu, and Arsinoë, p. 9). They are now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford.
The lids of such vases represent the four genii of the dead:
Ȧmset, , man-headed; Hāpi, , cynocephalous
Dûamûtef, , jackal-headed; Qebhsenûf, , hawk-headed.
