Abydos Sacred Ibises and Jackals Unearthed in Egypt
National Geographic outlines Abydos discoveries including a vast ibis necropolis with richly wrapped mummies and canopied sarcophagi, revealing bird worship and Osiris cult ties. It also details the colossal Catacomb of Jackals, its decayed remains, and debates on whether dogs or wolves are the jackal kin, all central to Anubis and immortality myths.
