saluting the rising sin each day
Kneeling Anubis Saluting the Rising Sun Egyptian Statue
Anubis, the jackal headed Egyptian God of the Dead, is shown here in the Praise and Glorification pose known as the Henu pose. Anubis and sometimes Horus are often shown in this pose where they salute the rising sin each dawn. Anubis kneels with one knee down and the other up as he holds up one fist towards the sky.
