A very present theme seen in ancient Egyptian culture is death. The ancient Egyptians were fascinated by it. Egyptians were preoccupied with the afterlife and what it would be like. They were always thinking about death and how they were going to be judged. The deceased would be lead to Osiris by Anubis. They believed that a person's heart would be weighed against the Feather of Ma'at. If one's heart weighed less than the Feather, they were allowed into the Afterlife, if not, they would forever remain in limbo.
