Bronze figurine for Nebet-hetepet
A Heliopolitan goddess whose name means 'mistress of the offering' or 'mistress of contentment', Nebet-Hetepet was a feminine counterpart of the creator god Atum and her identity was similar to that of the goddess Iusaas also venerated at Heliopolis. Both goddesses personified the female principle represented by the hand with which Atum was said to grip his phallus in bringing the world into existence. Nebet-hetepet could be associated with Hathor and was venerated at several sites, but was primarily little more than a logical complement to the masculine deity of creation.

Canopic jar lid decorated with the head of a Jackal being Doeamutef . He is connected to Neith and protector of the stomach. Canopic Jars were used by the ancient Egyptian during the rituals of mummification processes. These were used as containers in which to hold the internal organs of the deceased that was going to be mummified.
The jars had lids or stoppers that were shaped as the head of one of the minor funerary deities known as the Four Sons of HORUS.
It was the job of these four deities to protect the internal organs of the deceased; the Ancient Egyptians firmly believed that the deceased required his or her organs in order to be reborn in the Afterlife. For use in the afterlife they would be bandaged and vital organs placed individually in Canopic Jars.
Dating Late Period to Ptolemaic. 664 - 32 BC
