To determine which two cultures use creatures to protect or transport humans after death, let's analyze each option and identify the correct answer.
A. America (bald eagle) and Spain (bull): While the bald eagle is a symbol of strength and freedom in the United States, it does not have a direct association with protecting or transporting humans after death. The bull is revered in Spain but does not have a connection to the afterlife either. Therefore, option A is incorrect.
B. Egypt (the animal-headed sons of Horus) and China (the dragon): In Egyptian mythology, the animal-headed sons of Horus (such as jackal-headed Duamutef) were believed to protect the organs of the deceased during the mummification process and help guide them in the afterlife. In Chinese mythology, the dragon is often associated with longevity, power, and protection. Dragons were believed to be capable of transporting people to the afterlife. Therefore, option B is correct.
C. Egypt (the jackal) and China (the lion): While it is true that the jackal-headed god Anubis was associated with the Egyptian afterlife, protecting the deceased, and guiding them in the journey to the underworld, the lion is not directly tied to the afterlife in China. So, option C is incorrect.
D. Mayans (the crow) and Greeks (the raven): While birds hold symbolic importance in various cultures, neither the crow nor the raven specifically have significant associations with protecting or transporting humans in the afterlife for the Mayans or Greeks. Thus, option D is incorrect.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. Egypt (the animal-headed sons of Horus) and China (the dragon).
