#AncientEgyptians believed feathers symbolize #truth and #justice because of the connection with the goddess #Maat. Her feather of truth was what the heart was weighed against to see if the person’s soul would continue on or be eaten by Ammit, which would cause that soul to be obliterated.

This hypothesis is interesting, but #AncientEgyptians experienced #SolarEclipses, inc. #TotalSolarEclipses, centuries earlier.
One cannot properly understand #AncientEgyptian religion without understanding how #eclipses inspired certain religious beliefs aka #mythology & iconography.

"The treasures of the young pharaoh, which include a wide range of funerary items, are now on display on the second floor of the Egyptian Museum. Among the dazzling array of riches is a sumptuous gold throne adorned with semi-precious stones and coloured glass. What sets these embellishments apart is that some of the inlays have been carved in low relief, imbuing the inanimate object with vitality. The back of the throne features an intimate scene of the young king and his queen, Ankhesenamun, who is seen anointing the king with perfume oil. The king is adorned with an elaborate crown and a broad collar, both inlaid with exquisite coloured glass. This regal representation gives us a glimpse into the types of ornaments donned by the pharaoh and other members of the royal family."
The back of King Tut's throne features ornate carvings and reliefs painted in gold and red and turquoise. It depicts Tutankhamun sitting in an ornate chair opposite a woman whose outstretched hand is on his shoulder in an intimate fashion. She's wearing ornate clothes and is his sister-wife. Hieroglyphics and ornate embellishments are all around the two central figures. "The back of the throne features an intimate scene of the young king and his queen, Ankhesenamun, who is seen anointing the king with perfume oil. The king is adorned with an elaborate crown and a broad collar, both inlaid with exquisite coloured glass.

The bejeweled "Golden Throne of #Tutankhamun," retrieved from his tomb in the Valley of Kings features an intimate scene on the back where his wife (& half-sister) Queen Ankhesenamun applies #fragrance oil on him.
