The jars that hold embalmed kings are known as Canopic jars. These jars were used in ancient Egyptian burial practices to store the internal organs of the deceased during the mummification process. Each jar corresponded to a specific organ and was often decorated with the head of one of the Four Sons of Horus, who were protective deities associated with the afterlife.

The Egyptians used Canopic jars to store organs of their dead animals instead of burying them because they believed the deceased would need them in the afterlife. Each organ was placed into a separate jar.
After the canopic jars had the appropriate organs of the royalty placed inside of them, they were place in a box in the tomb.
