The Greeks called «vessels canopicos» (or ushebtis) a certain type of vessels that were used in the mummification process in Egypt. Mummification was a means of allowing the deceased to carry out, in the best possible conditions, his journey into the past, to access to immortality.
These vessels were four whose caps representing the four sons of Horus (the four elements, the four forces): one with head of Jackal, Duamutef; other with a bird’s head (usually, Falcon), Quebsenuf; another head of monkey of the Baboon kind, Hapi; and the latter with human head, Amset.
