Kebechsenef

In Egyptian mythology, Kebechsenef is a funerary god, associated with falcons and canopic jars (specifically: the jar which contained the viscera of the lower body). He was a son of Horus.

His name is technically transliterated as ḳbḥ-snw=f. This is variously realised as Kebehsenuf, Kebechsenef or Qebehsenuf. It probably means something like 'My Brothers' Libation'.
