Did you know the ancient Egyptians believed your heart was the key to the afterlife?

In the Hall of Two Truths, your heart was weighed against the Feather of Ma’at — the goddess of truth and justice. If it was heavier, it was devoured by a monstrous being named Ammit. If it was light... you earned eternal peace in the Field of Reeds.

A timeless belief that truth and morality were the very measure of your soul.
