Anubis Tattoo Photo #3282

Anubis is one of the most recognizable figures from ancient Egyptian mythology: a jackal-headed guardian linked to mummification and the journey to the afterlife. The jackal head itself works like a powerful mask in tattoo form.

Minimalist tattoos use clean lines and open space to convey meaning with as few elements as possible. The restrained approach keeps the focus on shape and composition rather than detail.

Ankle tattoos are subtle and easy to conceal with socks or footwear. The small canvas works best with compact designs, bands, or wrapping patterns that follow the joint's shape.
