Canopic

But there are paths to mummified eternity that don’t involve canopic jars, natron salts, or brain-removing hooks.

Last month, a university in the Republic of Ireland said it was planning to repatriate a sarcophagus, mummified human remains and canopic jars.

The items also include a set of four canopic jars - containers used by ancient Egyptians during mummification - and funerary head and body coverings known as cartonnage.

Researchers determined the object was the lid of a canopic jar dedicated to the funerary god Imsety, containing the liver of a mummified person.

Customs and Border Protection says they intercepted the Egyptian canopic jar lid of the funeral deity named Imsety on Aug. 17.
