[[Category:{{{myth fact or fiction}}}]] Anpu are wolf-headed warriors created by Anubis. Controlled by the Elder himself, they served on Danu Talis as royal guards, prison wardens, and soldiers for the Elders (though Anubis gave the final commands; when Aten assisted Marethyu, Anubis ordered the Anpu to attack Aten despite him having a higher rank).

Trivia

  • "Anubis" is the Greek word for the god. "Anpu" was the name Egyptians called Anubis.
  • Recently, genetic analysis the "jackals" worshipped by the Egyptians are actually African golden wolves. The notion that Anubis (and the Anpu) were "jackal-headed" is erroneous.
  • The Anpu are usually silent, excepting their cries of war. They also speak when attacked by Hekate's army.
  • The main weapons of the Anpu are the tonbogiri and kopeshs.
