Random factsabout Anubis

Background of Anubis.

• Anubis is brought to be a very popular character or symbol in some television shows. Such as the

House of Anubis that has been aired on nickelodeon. This show has lots to do with Egyptian

mythology. They find old Egyptian artifacts and have to deal with strange magical happenings, but it never really connects to why the house is named

the house of Anubis.

Anubis in modern day

I feel as if Anubis isn't portrayed as the god the Egyptians said he was. I feel that modern day television

shows have actually talked him down, and don’t make it clear that he’s actually the god of death. They actually don’t elaborate on what he represents they just make

him a scary, and intimidating god. They don’t show any of his powers or even how he was the god that created

mummification. I think they should show what he actually did with mummification because it was one of

his biggest things he invented.

In my opinion…..
