Description
A dummy canopic jar in the form of the baboon-headed Hepi, one of the four Sons of Horus. Hepi extended his protection to the lungs of the deceased. The features are clearly defined and well-executed. By the 3rd Intermediate Period the viscera were usually returned to the mummified body rather than stored in canopic jars, but empty or dummy jars were sometimes still included in burials to ensure protection from the four Sons of Horus.

Dummy canopenvaas in de vorm van de baviaankoppige Hepi, een van de vier Horuszonen. Hepi beschermde de longen van de overledene. De trekken zijn duidelijk aangezet en fraai uitgevoerd. Tegen de 3e Tussenperiode werden de ingewanden gewoonlijk in de mummie teruggeplaatst in plaats van in canopenvazen te worden bijgezet. Lege of onechte vazen werden soms in de grafuitrusting meegegeven om te zorgen dat de bescherming van de vier Horuszonen niet teloor ging.
Vase canope factice en forme de tête de babouin. Il s'agit de Hepi, l'un des quatre Fils d'Horus. Hepi étend sa protection sur les poumons du défunt. Les traits caractéristiques sont bien définis et exécutés. A partir de la Troisième Période Intermédiaire, les viscères étaient habituellement replacés dans les corps momifiés plutôt qu'enfermés dans les vases canopes. Cependant, des vases vides ou factices figuraient parfois dans l'équipement funéraire pour s'assurer la protection des quatre Fils d'Horus.
Ein Scheinkanopenkrug in Gestalt des pavianköpfigen Hepi, eines der vier Horuskinder. Hepi beschützte die Lungen des Verstorbenen. Die Gesichtszüge sind klar gezeichnet und gut ausgeführt. In der 3. Zwischenzeit wurden die Eingeweide gewöhnlich in den mumifizierten Körper zurückgelegt und nicht mehr in Kanopenkrügen aufbewahrt, aber manchmal wurden trotzdem noch leere oder Scheinkanopenkrüge in Gräbern deponiert, um den Schutz durch die vier Horuskinder zu gewährleisten.
Finto vaso canopo avente la forma di Hepi dalla testa di babbuino, uno dei quattro figli di Horo. Hepi proteggeva i polmoni del defunto. I contorni sono ben definiti ed eseguiti con accuratezza. Nel Terzo Periodo Intermedio le viscere venivano di solito riposte nel corpo mummificato e non più conservate nei vasi canopi, ma vasi canopi vuoti o finti erano posti nelle tombe per assicurare protezione da parte dei Quattro Figli di Horo.
