In Egyptian
mythology, Imsety (also transcribed
Imset, Imseti, Amset, Amsety, Mesti, and
Mesta) was a funerary deity, one of the
Four sons
of Horus, who were associated with the
canopic jars, specifically the one which
contained the liver. Unlike his brothers,
Imsety was not associated with any animal
and was always depicted as human. The early
form of Isis was
considered his protector.
