	Anubis - Encyclopedia of Religion
		There were two types of canine divinities in Egypt, their leading representatives being respectively Anubis and Ophois ("opener of the ways"): the former type is symbolized by the incumbent animal, the other by a similar animal (in a if standing attitude), carried as an emblem on a standard in war or in religious processions.
		In late days the Greeks report that dogs were the sacred animals of Anubis while those of Ophois were wolves.
		The figure is often colored fl as befits a funerary and nocturnal animal: it is more tenuated than even a greyhound, but it has the bushy tail of a fox or the jackal.

		They thus corresponded, at any rate in some measure, respectively to the fiercer and milder aspects of the dog-tribe.
		In late days the Greeks report that KuvES (dogs) were the sacred animals of Anubis while those of Ophois were Aukoc (wolves).
		The above figure is coloured fl as befits a funerary and nocturnal animal: it is more attenuated than even a greyhound, but it has the bushy tail of the fox or the jackal.

	Wepwawet
		Wepwawet (Upuaut, Wep-wawet, and Ophois) was an ancient canine god whose worship originated in Upper Egypt.
		He was one of the earliest of the gods to be worshipped at Abydos, possibly predating (and absorbing) that of Khentyamentiu (another god of the Abydos necropolis).
		To complicate matters further, Wepwawet was sometimes called the "son of Isis" and identified as Horus (and therefore the pharaoh) although she was also seen as the grand-daughter of Shu and the step-mother of Anubis according to the Heliopolitan tradition.

	Colonial Fleets - Bsg A10 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		My first suggestion would be the Egyptian God of War, Ophois, also known as "The Opener of Ways." Ophois is the Greek translation of the original Egypian name Wepwawet, but Ophois sounds cooler.
		Ophois is also often represented by the Jackal, and your design kind of reminded me of a Jackal...
		Ophois, or Wepwawet, pre-dates Anubis by at least several hundred years (if not at least 1,000 years according to some historians).

	A Look Into Egyptian Religion
		The tribes of Egypt that existed pre-dynasty often worshipped different animals as gods that represented their feelings of which animal was in most relation to their way of life.
		Many of these gods were shown in pictures and writings to have an animal head on a human body, with an example being Ophois, the god of war, who had a wolf's head.
		Some gods were identified with multiple animals, as well, such as Thoth, who was associated with the ibis, the baboon, and the moon.

	Gourmet Garlic Grows in Mountain View (October 05, 2001)
		Unless you have the fluffiest, richest soil, garlic cloves should be set six by ten or twelve inches apart.
		The smaller ophois can be set as close as four inches apart.
		If you are planting small cloves for "green garlic," harvested young before cloves form, one by two inches is fine.

	Wepwawet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For the Great Pyramid exploration project, see The Upuaut Project.
		In Egyptian mythology, Wepwawet (also spelt Upuaut, Wep-wawet, and Ophois) was originally a war god, whose cult centre was Lycopolis, in Upper Egypt.
		In particular Wepwawet was seen as a scout, going out to clear routes for the army to proceed forward, thus his name, which means opener of the ways, indeed, Wepwawet is depicted on the shedshed, a standard that led armies to battle.

	Upuaut - Wikipedia
		Upuaut, auch Wepwawet (oder Upuaut, Wep-wawet und Ophois), wurde als ägyptischer Kriegs- und Totengott verehrt.
		Die Griechen, welche ihn Ophois nannten, deuteten ihn als Wolf und nannten das Zentrum seines Kultes Lycopolis, was soviel bedeutet wie Stadt der Wölfe (die Stadt Assiut).
		Nach Upuaut benannt sind Upuaut und Upuaut-2, mit einer Kamera und Scheinwerfern ausgerüstete Roboter des Münchner Ingenieurs Rudolf Gantenbrink, die bei Untersuchungen der Cheops-Pyramide in den beiden Schächten der Königinnenkammer im Jahre 1993 zum Einsatz kamen.
