Historical Outline
1- The Judgment Day
The most popular image in
Egypt
is the Last Judgement, which is found in houses tombs and temples. The dead person kneels before the gods, swears that he is not guilty and presents offerings to help in his trial. Anubus, god of tomb protection and mummification leads him to the Balance of Justice to weigh his heart against the guiding feather of Ma'at -representing truth. A heavy heart means he is guilty of not following a good life and a light heart means he was a good person . Thoth, the god of writing, records the result and if honourable, orders him to pass accompanied by Horus, the god of protection, who leads him to
Paradise
for eternity. He is introduced to Osiris, god of the underworld, who possesses the authority to take and to punish. Behind him his wife Isis, goddess of love, and his sister Nephtis, goddess of magic and beauty.
2- Tutankhamun Fishing
Egyptian
Museum
,
Cairo
.
Dynasty XVIII 1333-1323 B.C.
This scene is a detail from the shrine of Tutankhamun and shows the King and his wife Ankhesenamun in a boat made of papyrus stems navigating through the papyrus marshes. Despite the richness of his burial, Tutankhamun remains an enigmatic figure. He died as young as 16 or 17 years of age. He was probably a son of King Akhenaton by one of his secondary wives. His wife Ankhesenamun was daughter of Akhenaton and Nefertiti. Tutankhamun came to the throne as a young child and ruled for about nine years under the regency of Vizier Ay and the strong influence of the army commander Horemheb. The main events of his reign were to move the capital of
Egypt
back from El-Amarna to
Memphis
and to begin the transiton from the monotheistic cult of Aton created by Akhenaton back to the polytheistic religion of
Egypt
with Amun-Ra again as the main God.
3-
Isis
This beautiful array of gods and goddess shows Isis, Ma’at, Horus and Hathor. Seated at the center is
Isis
with a horned crown as well as the vulture headdress.
Isis
is known for her virtues as mother, wife, protector and magician. She is holding the 'was' scepter of power and is pointing the ankh (key of life) sign at the goddess Ma’at, who is to her left. Ma’at is the goddess of truth, justice and order and is spreading her wings in protection to
Isis
. To the right is the god Horus who is wearing the crown of Upper and
Lower Egypt
and is the protector of the reigning King. To the left of them is the goddess Hathor, who is the divine mother of the reigning King, and goddess of sexuality, joy and music. In order to complete this beautiful symmetry there are two goddess on each side as well as protective cobras over the top
4- Ramses the II
This scene is of none other than Rameses the second. This is a war scene with Rameses seated in his chariot with his horses charging forward and he’s ready with his bow and arrow. There are many of such scenes from the Battle of Qadesh, which he fought with the Hittites. This was a great victory for him and so he had many carvings made on temples. After this he had made a treaty with them and ensure this agreement by marrying two of the Hittite princesses. Rameses the second is most well known for his monumental construction, such as the temple at
Abu Simbel
. He had a very long reign and now his mummy resides in the
Egyptian
Museum
,
Cairo
5- HEART CEREMONY
This bright and beautifully detailed scene is of the weighing of the heart ceremony. This ceremony took place after you died and was your test in order to enter the afterlife. A giant scale would weigh your heart against the feather of truth (Ma’at) and if your heart was lighter than it then you would pass on, but if not then it would be eaten by the Amemet monster. To the Egyptians the heart was considered to be the seat of all knowledge instead of the brain. So here all your good and bad deeds were measured. The image of the deceased as he bows to Thoth and Anubis, who will judge his fate. Thoth is the Ibis headed god who recorded all the happenings. While Anubis, god of the dead, watched over. Seated on top of the scale is a baboon. Baboons were guards of the first gate of the underworld and were connected with Thoth.
6- Amentet & Ra-Horakhty
This beautifully detailed array of gods and goddesses shows us Amentet and Ra-Horakhty in the center surrounded by Horus and Hathor. Amentet is the goddess with the bird on her crown, which stands for the West and so makes her the goddess of the West. Ra-Horakhty is known for his huge sun disk crown. He’s wearing the bull’s tail of strength and holding the 'was' scepter of power. On their thrones is a picture of the Sema-tawy (2 lungs and trachea) with a lotus (
Upper Egypt
) and papyrus (
Lower Egypt
) tied around it. This means ‘
Union
of the 2 lands’, which can be seen on the thrones of most Kings. To the right of them is Horus, wearing the crowns of Upper and
Lower Egypt
, as he is the protector of the reigning King. To the left of them is Hathor, the mother and wife protective goddess. She is wearing the menet necklace, which stands for truth and balance (Ma’at)
7- Royal Musicians
Ancient Egyptians were famous of their love for arts, Arts for them represented part of the religion, & so a very important element in their lives.
