Calcite Stopper for Canopic Jar

Calcite Stopper for Canopic Jar
Tutankhamun's embalmed organs were kept in a canopic shrine. A calcite chest sat inside the shrine. On top two pairs of Tutankhamun heads (above) faced each other. Slotted inside were four gold coffinettes, tiny replicas of the king's royal coffins, each containing an embalmed organ.
From the Tutankhamun Exhibition in the Saatchi Gallery, London.
