Comic-Snips: Amulet of Anubis

http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Amulet_of_Anubis

In 2030 B.C., the Egyptian deity Anubis rewarded his most devoted follower, the mad priest Khalis, with a gift, the Amulet of Anubis, holding part of the god's own power. In the following years, Khalis used the Amulet to take mental control of a legion of Nubian slaves and made them build "the mightiest of pyramids" to honor Anubis.

However, when Nabu the Wise, a Lord of Order in human form who served various Egyptian Pharaohs, discovered the actions of Khalis, he was not pleased. With a wave of his arm, Nabu freed the slaves from the priest's spell and let them have their revenge on Khalis. As Khalis was buried, Nabu took the Amulet as his own.[1]

In the 1940s, Nabu transformed Kent Nelson into his champion Doctor Fate, The Amulet has been part of the arsenal of this Fate and all his successors ever since.[2]
