Anubis: The Egyptian God of Death
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ย. 2021
- The jackal-headed god Anubis is one of the most famous and fascinating deities in Egyptian mythology. He was the first lord of the underworld, the conductor of souls, and the god of death. Anubis played several critical roles in ancient Egypt, evolving over time as Osiris took his place as ruler over the underworld. However, Anubis has always personified justice and respect for the dead - a key feature of ancient Egypt and its people.

Can You do one like this Video. But for Bastet the Goddess of Cats. :D
DDD DDD
you have the story confuesed
Hate to break the news… but anbius is the god of the afterlife, not dead
@@Squiddo_The_CrystAlien I think it kinda goes hand in hand. Kinda like Hadies. Though I agree the lore for both is different enough that there could be a Agruement for what you claim.
I noticed most God of Death like Anubis or Hades have one thing in common:
They're not so bad compared to other Gods
I think thats because we are already scared of death so people dont need myths to respect them.
@@snuglyflesh4427 buuut then Disney comes along and makes them villains because of their association with death
@@akiraboroque tru
Hades isn't the god of death though. He's the god of the underworld. The Greek god of death would be Thanatos. The video is also wrong in stating that all Hades does is torture dead souls like the devil. There are several layers in the Greek underworld that aren't all just Lake of Fire.
@@rema999p hades is just the ceo of hell
Anubis seems like a nice god. If I meet him after dead, I feel like I'd be comforted rather than scared.
The jackal head is kinda scary tho
@@whizthesugoi That's subjective, I think it looks cool
@@jaxthewolf4572 facts dude
If ur dead why would u be scared??🤣🤣
@@sakunungbastm5346 since the ancient Egyptians believed in souls, my soul would be scared after death if that makes sense lmao
He wasn't dethroned! He gave his seat up to him out of complete respect for the dead.
I love this video, despite that small thing! 🖤💜🖤
Ooooh I see what you mean. So, it's more like he was "dethroned" in a very objective sense, but it's more like a respectful pass of power kind o' deal.
I can dig that! Honestly that's a pretty healthy way to deal with this situation ^_^
@@twaggytheatricks4960 Precisely!! He holds so much respect for the dead, he wouldn't allow his "Kingly" responsibilities to affect his ability to do his job.
I feel he recognized Osiris as being a better fit for the role, given he had been one of the first kings in the living world for some time, anyway.
Last time I remembered, Anubis didn't want to be a god. He wanted to be a guide, so he used the opportunity to resurrect Osiris so he can pursue that.
Plus, he went ahead and killed Set, skinning him as used his skin as a warning to what happens to evil sentients.
Anubis, is indeed, a very just entity.
I got a better job.
@@Null_Protogen LMAO
Horus is the one that kills Set in most versions (to take revenge for his father Osiris and take back the throne of egypt)
As a lover of Egyptian mythology, Anubis has always been one of the most intriguing god of death. Not vengeful or power hungry like the other gods and goddesses. Anubis seems to be content with just doing his duties and taking care of the dead. Thanks for sharing his story and the superb animation!
The Egyptian Gods weren't vengeful at all. That except for Seth... and there is that one time Ra nearly killed everyone, but we don't usually talk about that.
But Hades is like Anubis in a way except he just hates his job because he is stuck in the underworld while his siblings rule on Olympus but they both seem like chill peeps
When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

@@johnfran3218 what does this have to do with anything
Yes because like every other black god\civilization they saw their gods as gray not being evil nor good and all their gods are equal
I know, this has been said before - when Kurzgesagt doesn’t upload, we can always come here. But damn, these are so good.
this is something different, is actually better
One can only imagen what were to happend if those channels did a co-op video.
@@mistercomment8060 we can only hope for something so great
The universe would explode
They will surely rival Kurzgesagt in the future
Even better they collaborate to make even better content
This just explained why Anubis is actually one of my favorite gods in Egypt! I love the work man, keep it up!
Anubis was a jackal-headed deity who presided over the embalming process and accompanied dead kings in the afterworld. When kings were being judged by Osiris, Anubis placed their hearts on one side of a scale and a feather (representing Maat) on the other. ... Anubis is the son of Osiris and Nephthys.

anubis actually willingly offered osiris to become the new ruler of the underworld out of respect. he doesn't care about glory or pride, all he cares about is his duty to the dead. otherwise great vid. keep up the good work.

From my childhood I liked to listen and read stories about different gods and cultures. I came across many of them, and I was always mostly scared of gods of death and war. Egypt history was my favorite, so it were their gods. Anubis is my favorite mithical god and the only one that the child me wasn't scared of. Thank you for remanding me about my favorite ancient god once again!
I'm glad I stumbled across this amazing channel. The story telling abilities of those behind this channel are truly talented.
This channel has only been around for 5 months, but has the production quality of one that has been making videos for 5 years. I'm looking forward to seeing this channel grow
💯
I was just thinking why I had not been exposed to this channel ever before, but your clarification kind of calms my FOMO! Thanks a lot!
@@TasZ06 lol same, i full thought i must of been whylin not to have seen a channel of this calibre before but that timeline explains a lot. still a shame it took me 5 months to find it but no less am i glad to have crossed paths with this video
@@sometimestrash2246 this channel thinks the ancient Egyptians are Arabs and not black African ppl in 2021 so..
@@Galaxy-rj1kj so... what are you exactly trying to say? Depending on the time period Egyptians had more in common with; as you put it, Arabs, or Assryrians, Macedonians, Nubians, etc. It would be as historically inaccurate to say Egyptians were black as it would be to say they weren't. In fact Egyptian historians left evidence of the distinctions they made between themselves and other tribes/kingdoms, as well as how "dark or light skinned" they were/perceived themselves to be when compared to others. Egyptians were phenotypically diverse.
I’ve always been fascinated with Ancient Egypt, I’m so glad you of all channels decided to make a video on this. Outstanding as always ❤️
yo xtr we need new flashes
TH-cam connects different worlds… also can u carry me to imm i’m so close
@@kharisma7158 agreed 👀
Ancient Egypt is literally the same as any other ancient African civilization 💀
This channel produces such amazing and high-level content. Im surprised that it has less than 2k subs. I would bet that this channel will have more than 1 million subs in the next year or 2.
Anubis is my favorite god out of all gods, just... incredible.
Very intellectual, judge, along with Seth?
This is so fascinating especially with the animations, keep doing videos like this! I were always so interested in ancient egyptians.
These videos are always so good quality, the animation and script is on point. Some of the best content out there
Hey wait a minute, did I just see your comment on a Kurgestat video?
It's a very underrated channel
Thank you :)
@@Koranos Thank you so much for making educational content, the fact that this is free blows my mind!
Yeah, just the same as Kurzgesagt xD
This animation and art is on a whole different level.
Almost as good as the other Egyptian one from a said video game
The art is Arab washing a black civilization 😂
A new level! Of confidence, and power
I've been watching Stargate sg-1 lately. Binging it. I'm glad because other wise I feel like TH-cam wouldn't have recommended your channels video.
So it's like-
Osiris - What can I do after being resurrected?
Anubis- Try ruling the underworld
Osiris- Bro, wasn't it your territory?
Anubis- Meh! I am bored of being the ruler, I just want to spend some time with the dead.
Osiris- Cool, wanna be my right hand?
Aubis- Sounds good to me, Deal!
😂 haha, what a God level conversation !!!
Anubis was looking to retire

@@Ixwillxwin eh?
Yep that’s exactly how that went
These ancient civilizations are even more interesting than the modern world, they have always fascinated me
@oneconcerned yes he was 😂
Fun fact most ancient Egyptian things were stolen by the Arab ppl that later became th ppl still living in Egypt, but yeah blacks people in ancient times had such great cultures until non blk ppl destroyed it
@@Galaxy-rj1kj we egyptians our majority are copts not arabs Iam an upper egyptian copt from my great ancestor maurice which is 100 percent coptic christain name and btw the word copt in the coptic language is remenkemi which means kemetians
@@Galaxy-rj1kj and we copts come from different shades from white to olive skin to brown to dark brown but you will never find a black copt or black coptic christain with black african features if we were black at least there will be one black coptic christain and btw the coptic christains are the most pure egyptians here since they are only mixed with greeks a little who were isolated in alexandria and certain districts as aristocracy families

This is absolutely beautiful! Thank you for making it ❤️
I've been looking for a channel like this and TH-cam finally recommended me this. You have yourself a new subscriber sir
I didn't know about the Field of Reeds at all! It makes egyptian mythology even more interesting.
Thanks for the hard work, it's amazing as always!
Reeds, uh. Thought he was saying rids 😅
Nope actually the field of reeds wasn’t a thing this account is lying 💀 they wer depicting the fertility of Africa
@@Galaxy-rj1kj What are you talking about? They were listed in the EBOTD. Many Egyptians imagined a place that reflected their world that would come after death.

HOLY SHI- ANOTHER GREAT INFOGRAPHIC CHANNEL! I gotta be here for when it rises up! Subscribed
Watching both you and kurzgesagt can fill up a whole day! Great content
Few years ago I discovered Kurzgesagt. Then I found you guys and Lemmino. All are amazing!! Each have their own style.
Tbh I only know the Egyptian gods bc of the Kane Chronicles
@@cheeto8067 I have the same exposure. Because of Rick Riordan, I started reading about Greek myths. Not to mention, God of War II was out at tht time.
Then the Roman and Egyptians and finally Norse gods.
@@cheeto8067 Fucking same lol. Like 90% of everything I know about ancient mythology comes from Riordan.
Wendover Productions is also top tier.
@@diogeneslantern18 oh thank you! another one..much love man.
actually ...the more i search and gain knowledge about my ancestors the more proud i am to be an Egyptian ...i subbed because your videos are actually well animated and done with love ...thank you and you are so underrated ....i really hope you get to a million this month
I used to have no patience to listen to podcasts or Ted talks . But after discovering ur channel I'm obsessed with ur videos.
I'm learning great vocabulary as well as so much information. I am imitating ur intonation and way of speaking for my language improvement
Loved the voiceover, animation and content.... Please keep making videos of various mythologies
WHO DOES THIS ANIMATION!? Its like a technical demo! Stunning.
This Guy is better than Marvel animators
I love the knowledge of mythology, religion and gods. It’s always a fun and cool thing to learn
One of the best videos I have ever seen on Egyptian mythology
imagine kurz asking this channel to help them make a new vid lol- these are really good
Mythology is always so interesting when properly presented. Like this one.
Thank you!
This was amazing. The breathtaking animation, the narration, storytelling, captivating voice, information, and so much more. Please do more of Ancient Egypt and other ancient cultures!
POV Anubis was my character of choice in the video game, War Gods
Those transitions though...
This is literally the reason TH-cam is a great platform, so much quality education videos like this. It's truly amazing
Great content, grateful for yt algorithm for this channel. No annoying accent and channel title normal, love it
One of my favorite channels now. The quality is so good, a lot of work is put into these videos and it shows.
Also ancient Egyptians were creative af
I just love when people describe the forgotten parts of history.
Good work man! Keep going!
I just found your channel.
The graphic is so smooth and you have a great storytelling.
You got a sub. Keep it up!
its 2am and i found this channel, im happy i cant sleep for once. i love this
I'm beyond thrilled whenever you upload. This channel is 100% quality content and needs more subscribers. Keep going strong guys!!
This is amazing quality! ❤️
I first came across Anubis from age of mythology, and was always interested in learning more about the Egyptian Gods. This was super informative and got me just as hooked as when I first saw them while playing the game.
The colour contrast, video quality, content are so amazing and attracting , keep it up , hoping for more such informative videos. 💙
Been looking for another channel like this.
I love Egyptian mythology and this was really well made! Also, the first couple of seconds gave me some huge Dune vibes, so that's a plus!
Anubis sounds like a great bloke. Wish to meet him when I eventually die
Your amazing animation style combined with topics like Futurism and Mythology makes a great video!
Absolutely adore this video! Amazing work! The animation was amazing too. It really helped bring the video together! Definitely sent this to my friends who also adore this type of content!
The only thing is Anubis/Anpu wasn't dethroned by Osiris. He's still very much the God of the Dead. He just is no longer the God of the Du'at/Underworld because by Royal right, that became Osiris's domain when Set killed him.
Amazing to see such a new channel be so successful. Thank you Koranos, for everything you do.
I love the simplicity of this channel and the voice is also soothing with subtitles. It's perfect!
I really love the animation the colour pallets and the concept and it fits right well in the moderator.
Love the video thanks!! And nice graphics!!!!
You guys are just absolutely Incredible Storytellers!!! Everytime I watch your videos, I am always taken to a state that is perceptually spell binding. Thank you. .
You guys are incredible! Keep up the good work and I can easily see you guys on the trending page every time you drop a video!
Wow the graphics are incredible. Simple, yet so aesthetically pleasing.
ANOTHER NICE ANIMATION SCIENCE CHANNEL WITH A GOOD VOICE ACTOR WHAT A W. I'm now subbed
The narration and cinematography are on par with giants like Kurzgesagt. I'm glad to discover such an underrated channel like this and I hope to see you one of the big ones one day
Love how detailed and beautifully coloured your videos are, please continue to make such videos on history.historical figures too
You upload good content keep it up ❤️
i’ve been here since the start! the earth video and i also commented on it and y replied ! these keep getting better ! i’m honoured to be an original viewer and watching your channel grow ! keep it up, this is fantastic ❤️ 🎉
Great Video.
In case anyone was wondering, like I was, the crocodile headed God's name is Ammut 'The Devourer'. She had the head of a Crocodile, midsection of a Lion, and hind-quarters of a Hippo.
The other crocodile-headed God was called Sobek, he has a human body and was believed to have created the Nile. He was associated with fertility, chaos, and military.
That's what I learned about crocodile-headed deities after this video sparked my interest.
May Anubis have mercy on us all.
If we had a chapter about ancient Egyptian mythology I would have asked my teacher to play this video during the class so that the students could have learnt things through fine animation rather than dull pages
Why should your fellow classmates be taught that Egyptians were not blk but Arabs? It’s fucking stupid and so outlandishly embarrassing for any real historian
@@Galaxy-rj1kj NOBODY CARES
Another great video keep them coming 👍
this is beautiful man good work gonna subscribe
Amazing content! Hats off to the designers and editors! Can't wait for more 😄
I really like mythology
Could you do more of these from different cultures too?
Your art style is so pretty
I really love the video, I really wish you could do more videos like this with the other Egyptian gods👍🏻🙂
My interest in mythology and the study of other religions began at a young age. Numerous deities of death and battle were the ones who most frightened me, and I encountered several of them. My favorite part of Egyptian history was learning about their gods. The one deity that didn't frighten little ol' me was Anubis, my favorite mithical deity. Once again, I am grateful that you have reminded me of my beloved ancient deity.
Yes! Milestone of 100k subscribers! Well done!
This is more than deserved :)
This is so cool, animation and background music is so calming
Please do more of these ancient gods. It's really interesting!
Such a well made video! It must have taken you so long to prepare it but its absolutely beautiful!!
One of my new FAVORITE channels!!!! Epic content! Love it.
You guys are really starting to hit your stride and develop your own style. Keep up the great work!
I’m so happy this got recommended to me! Glad I found your channel.. or uhh it found me! :D
First video I have seen but the quality of this video is quite astonishing, I would definitely put on on the same level of quality as kurzgesagt videos, keep up the good work!
Hot damn this was good, like seriously well done. Research, as far as memory serves at least, was on point for the egyptian portion which is by far the most important one for this vids topic ^^
(The Greek mention of Hades unfortunately not. Hades, both the God and the Realm, didn't solely punish. There were rather many different areas to the realm, some yes, for punishment, others, like Elysium, were paradise. Hades the god was often depicted as a hardworking caretaker, managing all the souls of the world as they came to him. Additionally, most versions don't depict him as being banished, but simply having gotten Hades as his realm when he and his brothers divided the world amongst themselves.)
Genuinely loved the quality in this though. Like, the animations were amazing, the narration just beautiful and so easy to follow along, the script beautiful, the music so captivating but never overshadowing. Ah, excellent production all around! My thanks goes out to everyone on the team and I hope each and everyone of you has an absolutely wonderful day, you've certainly made the start of mine a good one ^^
Great comment, it expressed what I wanted to say perfectly
I am beyond mesmerized by the animation, voiceover and the sound of this video. Bravo 👏🏻

Beautiful graphics and animations, nice and educational as well
Hey Koranos, remember me from when we still only had 6k subs? Man, what a ride, congrats friend!
:)
How is this channel not at 1 mil subs yet, it is like Kurzgesagt level of content, Great animation, Awesome visuals and mystifying commentary. KEEP IT UP👏👏! (I'm going to make a bold statement and say this channel would hit 1 mil next year or so).
Please do more videos like this. I'm very interested in learning about the Egyptian gods and would love to see a video about the god of the moon Khonsu.
Beautifully made!
