In Egyptian mythology,
Duamutef (also known as Tuamutef) was one of the Four
sons of Horus and a funerary god who protected the stomach
and large intestines of mummified corpses, kept in a canopic
jar. He was associated with the jackal and was protected by
the goddess Neith. Duamutef is represented
as a mummified man with the head of a jackal. His name is generally
realised as Duamutef, and probably means 'Adoring His Mother'.
