Canopic Jar with human headed lid, Imsety
Late Period
One of two jars, presumably from a set of four (see also 25.3.115a, found smashed in the courtyard of Tomb MMA 832. Painted on the body are images of Osiris and a mummiform figure with a human head, labeled as the canopic deity Imsety (guardian of the liver). Only the striped wig, chin, mouth, and part of the cheek of the human-headed stopper was preserved.
