The canopic jars were used for putting organs in it.
They were made of wood or bronze.
The baboon protected the lungs,
The falcon protected the intestines,
The jackel protected the stomach
And the human head protected the liver.
The canopic jars would keep the organs safe so the organs don’t get old.
