The image of the jackal god Anubis atop his shrine was significant in the protection of the deceased, as was the wadjet-eye, associated with Horus.  Both appear on the obverse of this pylon-shaped pectoral, while the reverse features the djed-pillar and tyet-amulet, symbolic of Osiris and Isis. For a similar example but in yellow and blue faience, now in the British Museum, see no. 161 in F.D. Friedman, ed. Gifts of the Nile, Ancient Egyptian Faience.
