Make an Offering

The anubis shrine allows you to make a traditional voice offering to the Khemetic god Anubis.

The offering formula (or ḥtp-ḏj-nswt) is a traditional phrase, in which someone takes part in the ritual offerings of "bread, beer, ox, fowl, alabaster, linen, and everything good and pure on which a god lives" which the king gave to the gods. The offering formula is found all across Egypt, on both monuments and tomb furniture.
