'Anubis in Modern Culture' by AnubisLaughed
15 years ago
I'm always interested in seeing exactly how far Anubis has penetrated (hur dur!) modern pop culture.
It's been roughly 2,000 years after formal, state-sponsored worship of him essentially ended. Most other Gods from the pre-christian era have been safely relegated to dusty museum shelves and dry, sterile academic tomes. Yet Anubis remains fairly well known and recognizable to many people, even those who have never heard of 'Furries".
So I think I'll start collecting some of these images from the mainstream. To start, here's a still from the original 1942 version of "Cat People".

Strangely enough, in the film, this is supposed to be a maritime musem the characters are visiting. Yet here's our fav Jackal-Headed God from the dry, dusty sands of Egypt.
I'll stick the image in my scraps file....more to come soon, as Anubis is Everywhere!
