Because they put a brain in mummies head
The heart was not put into a canopic jar. The heart is needed in the afterlife.
because the brain was a organ that needed to be removed and put in a canopic jar which is where they put all the organs
After Egyptians got the dead bodies organs they put them in a jar to rest for 1000 years. Then they took them out and ate them.
The organ that is not removed from the body is the heart so that they can weigh it to see if you go to the underworld or not.
they did not just have to pick a canopic jar they chose any to put organs in XD :) have i answerd your question!!

They were called Canopic Jars~The god Duamutef guarded the stomachThe god Imsety guarded the liverThe god Hapi guarded the lungsThe god Qebehsenuef guarded the intestinesThe heart wasn't put in a Canopic Jar as it was to be weighed in order to go into the afterlife.

Each canopic jar guarded a different organ.1. Imsety had a human head, protected the liver.2. Qebehsenuf had the head of a falcon and guarded the intestines.3. Hapy had a baboon head protected the lungs.4. Duamatef had the head of a jackal, and guarded the stomach.The four canopic jars were put into a special chest which went into the tomb with the mummy.
When the organs were removed in the mummification process, they were preserved in canopic jars.
The jars had lids that were shaped as the head of one of the minor funerary deities known as the Four Sons of Horus: Imsety, the human-headed god, looks after the liver; Happy, the babboon-headed god, looks after the lungs; Duamutef, the jackal-headed god, looks after the stomach; Qebehsenuef, the falcon-headed god, looks after the intestines. There was no canopic jar that held the head.
The jars are called canopy jars and each one were charged with safekeeping a particular human organ (or organs). Duamutef - the jackal-headed god protected the stomach in his jar. Qebehsenuaf - the falcon-headed god protected the intestines in his jar. Hapi - the baboon-headed god protected the lungs in his jar. Imseti - the human-headed god protected the liver in his jar.
the organs were in preserved the canopic jars so if you open up one of the canopic jars today dont be surpried if you find an organ of some type
