The Egyptian jars used for placing organs are called canopic jars. In ancient Egyptian mummification practices, these jars were designed to hold and preserve the embalmed organs of the deceased, typically the stomach, intestines, lungs, and liver. Each jar was dedicated to a specific organ and protected by one of the four Sons of Horus, who were believed to safeguard the contents. The jars were often intricately decorated and placed in a canopic chest or buried with the mummy to ensure safe passage to the afterlife.
