Papyrus is the material that is made from the fibers of reeds that grown on the banks of the Nile River. It was manufactured as early as the first Egyptian Dynasty, circa 3,000. The Egyptians used papyrus for 4,000 years.

"Ground paper" eventually replaced papyrus for economic reasons, although manufacturing of papyrus continued until the end of the 11th century. Today it is still manufactured on a small scale, and primarily for art!

Anubis was the ‘Lord of the West’ that was associated with embalming and mummification. This particular dog comes from the tomb of Tutankhamun. The cartouche to the left spells out his prenomen (one of the Pharaoh’s names)-NebKhepurure.
