Sons of Horus - Sarcophagus of Peftjauneith

Discover 'Sons of Horus', part of an exclusive collaboration between Kunstsokken and the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden. This design takes you directly to the coffin of Peftjauneith, a temple administrator who lived around 650 BCE in ancient Egypt. Limited Edition – Exclusive Museum Collection These socks feature two of the four Sons of Horus: Duamutef with his jackal head and Qebehsenuef with his falcon head. These gods had a crucial task – they had to protect the internal organs of the deceased on their journey to the afterlife. The hieroglyphs surrounding their depictions contain spells from the Book of the Dead and the name of Peftjauneith himself, exactly as they were applied to the sarcophagus 2,600 years ago. With these socks, you're not just wearing a beautiful piece of Egyptian art, but also a story about protection and eternal life. Every color and symbol is precisely knitted into the sock, bringing the details of the original coffin to life – from the vibrant blue and green tones to the delicate hieroglyphs running between the divine figures.
