Talk:Inaros Canopic Helmet/@comment-156.12.207.54-20170202025630

I've actually formed quite an amusing theory about this helmet:

Inaros is a mummy-themed warframe. Mummies were very prevalent in ancient Egypt. Thus, he follows a very distinct Egyptian mythology styled setup, what with the Anubis helmet (Anubis being the jackal-headed god of the dead).

Now, I might be reading too much into this, but someone said "Aw man, look at the detail on the helmet. They have little Anubis heads hanging off of it." and I looked at it, and the name, and immediately thought otherwise.

During the embalming process, they would remove several organs from the body, and would preserve four of them in particular in canopic jars: the liver, stomach, lungs, and intestines. The canopic jars each had specific guardians: Imsety the Human for the liver, Hapy the Ape for the lungs, Qebehsenuef the Falcon for the intestines...

and Duamutef the Jackal for the stomach.

While I agree that there are jackal heads on the helmet, given the name and the theme of Inaros, I am now convinced that they are not the image of Anubis at all, but rather, that of Duamutef, and that perhaps Inaros has found his stomach?

Like I said, I'm probably reading too much into this, but it did give me a chuckle, and if it is the case, then hats off to DE.

Just a theory.
