Anubis is an incredibly ancient god, and was the original god of the dead before Osiris "took over" the position. After that point, Anubis was changed to be one of the many sons of Osiris and the psychopomp (conductor of souls) of the underworld. His totem of the jackal is probably due to the fact that jackals would hunt at the edges of the desert, near the necropolis and cemeteries throughout Egypt.
Prayers to Anubis are found carved on the most ancient tombs in Egypt and his duties apparently are many. He watches over the mummification process to ensure that all is done properly. He conducts the souls through the underworld, testing their knowledge of the gods and their faith. He places their heart on the Scales of Justice during the Judging of the Heart, and he feeds the souls of wicked people to Ammit. In some stories, Anubis is the son of Ra and Nephthys, or Set and Nephthys (probably due to Set and Anubis having the same totem animal). Some have Heset as his mother, and still others say Bast. This apparent confusion is still another sign of Anubis' origins in the most ancient of times. He also has a daughter, Kabechet, who helps him in the mummification.

Get the Anubis mug.Anupam, also known as pom to his friends. Although he has a huge resting bitch face, once you get to know him he’s a funny guy. He is the perfect mix of immaturity and intelligence. He’s pretty shy w the ladies BUT when he wants to get the job done, after hours thinking about it, he can do it. If he’s not playing league, he’s probably thinking about ways to kill him self. He’s happy, but also really sad at the same time. But it’s ok because he has a group of rlly close friends who he can count on whenever he needs them. He’s the bomb.com.
Guy 1: you know anupam? Damn ur so lucky
Guy 2: i guess, he seems sad all the time
Guy 1: nah dude he’s so funny! Did you hear about how he got ISS for basing someone’s head in?

Get the house of anubis mug.
An Anupriya starts out awkward and strange in early childhood. Nobody likes her. AT ALL. Then in later years to come, this weird specimen turns into the most beautiful person alive. She has big hopes set ahead for her. And an Anupriya is usually talented in the arts. Anupriya Kapoor is an actress. But that's all the examples available. Anupriya comes from Sanskrit words Anu and Priya. Meaning beloved. An Anupriya is most probably of an Indian origin with a perfect tan skin, beautiful luscious black hair, and black eyes. Meeting an Anupriya is good for your health and everyone should have an Anupriya in their life.
Girl 1: Eew, that girl Anupriya is a disgusting freak.
Girl 2: I know right!
--10 Years Later--
Girl 1: OMG I love Anupriya so much and I wish I was her
Girl 2: I know right!
Girl 2: I know right!

Get the Anupriya mug.It is synonymous to the word "anulika." It means 'abundant joy' or 'happiness'. Unlike "anulika", it can also mean a paragon of perfection.
