Canopic jars are typically made of materials such as stone, wood, or pottery. In ancient Egypt, they were often crafted from alabaster or limestone, and sometimes glazed to enhance their appearance. The jars were designed to hold the internal organs of mummified bodies, each jar representing one of the four sons of Horus who protected these organs. They often featured decorative lids shaped like the heads of these deities.
