Canopic jars in the collection of the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. Canopic jars were used by the Ancient Egyptians during the mummification process to store and preserve the organs of their owner for the afterlife, and were customarily carved from limestone or made of pottery. Canopic jars of the Old Kingdom were rarely inscribed, and had a plain lid, whereas during the Middle Kingdom, inscriptions were common and the lids were often in the form of human heads. By the Nineteenth dynasty each of the four jar lids (each jar was reserved for specific organs) depicted one of the four sons of Horus, as guardians of the organs.
