Qebehsenuef is one of the four sons of Horus, along with Hapy, Duamutef, and Imsety. Qebehsenuef is usually portrayed with the head of a falcon. In a funerary context, he was responsible for protecting the intestines of mummified people. As ruler of one of the four cardinal directions, Qebehsenuef was associated with the west. Although Qebehsenuef is most prominently found in funerary context as a canopic jar, he is possibly more closely associated with the Egyptian decans. Dutch Egyptologist Maarten Raven argues that the four sons originated as celestial deities, given that the Pyramid Texts frequently connect them with the sky and that Horus himself was a sky deity.

-A significant development in '''[[clairvoyance]]''' research came in the 1930s, when J. B. Rhine, a parapsychologist at Duke University, introduced a standard methodology, with a standard statistical approach to analyzing data, as part of his research into extrasensory perception. A number of psychological departments attempted to repeat Rhine's experiments, with failure. W. S. Cox from Princeton University with 132 subjects produced 25,064 trials in a playing card ESP experiment. Cox concluded, "There is no evidence of extrasensory perception either in the 'average man' or of the group investigated or in any particular individual of that group. The discrepancy between these results and those obtained by Rhine is due either to uncontrollable factors in experimental procedure or to the difference in the subjects."
