What is Saqqara about?
The Catacombs of Anubis at North Saqqara serve as a burial site for millions of dog mummies, highlighting the significance of animal cults in ancient Egyptian religion. The Catacombs of Anubis Project, initiated in 2009, aims to investigate these catacombs, ensuring safety and conducting thorough surveys and faunal analysis. The findings suggest that the catacombs could contain as many as eight million animals, indicating a widespread practice of votive dedications by pilgrims to the site.
