Anubis

Anubis was a deity in ancient Egyptian mythology, worshipped as the god of mummification and the afterlife. His origins date back to the early dynastic period of Egypt (c. 3100–2686 BCE). Anubis was believed to have emerged from the religious practices and beliefs surrounding death and burial, serving as a protector of graves and guide for souls in the afterlife.

Strengths of Anubis included his role as a protector of graves and guide for souls, ensuring safe passage to the afterlife. Weaknesses were not typically attributed to deities like Anubis in mythology. Competitors included Osiris, who eventually took over many of Anubis's functions related to the afterlife and became more prominent in Egyptian religion.

An Anubis expert must have skills in Egyptology, hieroglyphic translation, archaeological methods, and ancient Egyptian religious practices. Proficiency in artifact preservation and mummification techniques is also essential.
