Duamutef (also spelled Duamutef or Duamutef) is one of the four sons of Horus, a group of deities in ancient Egyptian religion who were associated with the protection of the viscera of the deceased. Duamutef, whose name translates to "He who adores his mother" in Egyptian, was specifically tasked with protecting the stomach. In the context of mummification, the stomach was removed during the process and stored in a canopic jar, which was often depicted with a human head, symbolizing Duamutef. The other three sons of Horus are Imsety (protector of the liver), Hapy (protector of the lungs), and Qebehsenuef (protector of the intestines). Duamutef was also associated with the god Osiris, reflecting his role in the afterlife and the protection of the deceased. In Hebrew, the name Duamutef can be transliterated as דוואמוטף, though there is no direct translation. In other languages, such as French, he is known as Douamoutef, and in German, he is referred to as Duamutef.

Four sons of Horus
The four sons of Horus were a group of four deities in ancient Egyptian religion who were believed to protect the dead in the afterlife. Beginning in the First Intermediate Period of Egyptian history, Imsety, Hapy, Duamutef, and Qebehsenuef were especially connected with the four canopic jars that housed the internal organs which were removed from the body of the deceased during the process of mummification. Most commonly, Imsety protected the liver, Hapy the lungs, Duamutef the stomach, and Qebehsenuef the intestines, but this pattern often varied. The canopic jars were given lids that represented the heads of the sons of Horus. Although they were originally portrayed as humans, in the latter part of the New Kingdom, they took on their most distinctive iconography, in which Imsety is portrayed as a human, Hapy as a baboon, Duamutef as a jackal, and Qebehsenuef as a falcon. The four sons were also linked with stars in the sky, with regions of Egypt, and with the cardinal directions.
