Yes, Canopic Jars are very important because they believed that they could be used as spells against the body when in the tomb. So they would be safe for after life by the sounds of the after life becauseman it seams pretty good well if you can make it there!loll.
There are 4 canopic jars because there were four parts of the body that they wanted in the canopic jars, the liver, lungs, stomach, and insteins. Gosh now my stomach is hurting just talking about this stuff.
The Canopicjars were used for holding the Liver, stomach, intestines, and lungs,eww Gross i would not like doing that. the heart was left in thebody for the after life. They also tried to take out all of the brain with a hook that went up the nose then what ever they could not get they smashed it around then tilted the body over to drain. I would still want my brain in my body so i can be smart.For the after life
