Judgment day Papyrus
[P-102K]

 
Egyptische kunst Papyrus Schilderij

Egyptian handmade papyrus light papyrus with a painting that shows the scene of the afterlife court. 

This papyrus is for the judgement day. It was believed that when a person died, the soul had to pass through a dangerous underworld known as Duat where it faced all sorts of dangers like monsters and lakes of fire. The final and ultimate test for the soul's voyage through Duat was 'The Weighing of the Heart' which is illustrated below. The ba of the dead person is watching the test, hoping to pass. Anubis stands under a scale and verifies that it's working correctly as the ibis-headed scribe godThoth waits to record the results. The heart of the dead person is weighed against 'the feather of truth,' a symbol ofMa'at (the goddess of truth, justice, and order). If the heart weighs less, the soul is free to go on to meetOsiris in the afterlife. But if the heart is heavy with sin, it is thrown to Ammut, 'the devourer of the dead,' who gobbles it up, denying the soul an afterlife and causing it to cease to exist!
