Question

The inscription “It is improper to boil a head here” appears in a Berenike shrine named for these animals, where these animals were ritually decapitated. The inability to easily raise these (-5[1])animals in captivity led priests to scam peasants using rag bundles made to resemble their mummified remains; those remains, along with ibises, were stacked in clay pots (-5[1])found (-5[1])inside the Saqqaran catacombs. The serekh (-5[1])is typically surmounted by this animal whose head tops the intestine-containing (*) canopic jar guarded by Serqet, (-5[1])which represents (-5[1])Qebehsenuef (-5[1])(keh-beh-seh-NOO-eff). The city of Nekhen, or Hierakonpolis, is alternatively named for this (-5[1])animal that is (-5[1])depicted binding a foe’s (10[1])head (-5[1])above a set of papyrus plants on the Narmer (-5[1])Palette. A god most commonly depicted with this animal’s (-5[1])head rides the (-5[1])solar barque across the (10[1]-5[1])sky. For 10 points, name this sacred animal of (10[1])Horus. (10[10]0[2])■END■
