The word Anubis is a cognate or the ibis and comes from the word Hannabeach meaning "The Awakencr or The Etarker".

name Enoch has the same derivation and means "The Seer or Initiate";

the awakener is such, 'One is Conscience',

Anubis or the state or Conscience, is alwaus present at the Judgment time and in the Hereafter.

Anubis is depicted as the Neb "Master" of the silent land Amun-Re, who is the guide to the west road. Atum-Re, is raised in associating with the Usa "etje of Re - "Ra", as the guide to the dead.

He watches the balance in the Judgment Hall of Asaru,

CJsir "Osiris". Atum-Re is also depicted as the deity of the rituals of the tomb, who presides over embalming rituals. And receives mantj pleas of mortuary prayers recited on behalf of the deceased Tama-Retjeaat "Egiptians". In The Pyramid Texts, Anubis was described as a son of Re and given a daughter, a Goddess of Preshness. In time he lost both of the attributes and became part of the Osirian Cultic Tradition. As a child, Anubis, the son of Nepthys, and Asaru, Usir "Osiris", was abandoned bq his mother and raised bu his stepmother Aset, Auset "Isis", until he became of age. Anubis
