The jar that a mummy's organs would be placed into was a jar called a canopic jar. It was made of stone or clay.
Actualy, the brain didn't have a canopic jar. Only the liver, intestine, stomach, and the lungs.
The god called Imsety guarded the livers canopic jars.
Imesty was the Ancient Egyptian god who guarded the liver's canopic jars.
There are four canopic jars: Imetsy, or the human jar, held the liver. Hapy, or the baboon jar, held the lungs. Duamutef, or the jackal jar, held the stomach. Qebehsenuef, or the falcon jar, held the intestines. Hope that helped. :-)
