By the Middle Kingdom (circa 2055 - 1650 BC) he was replaced by Osiris in his role as lord of the underworld. One of his notable roles was as a guide to spirits in the afterlife. He would attend Libra events, during which the "heart was weighed" and determined whether the spirit would be allowed to enter the realm of the dead.[2] Despite being one of the oldest deities and "one of the most frequently mentioned" deities in the Egyptian Pantheon, Anubis played no role in Egyptian mythology.[3] Anubis is depicted in black, a color that symbolizes renewal, life, the soil of the Nile, and the discoloration of a corpse after mummification.
