This drawing is taken from Egyptian mythology. Given that the ancient Egyptians believed in accountability after death, through which a person enters heaven or hell, this woman in the picture is Ma'at, one of the most important figures in the judgment of a person in the afterlife in the beliefs of the pharaohs, they used to draw her as a woman with wings and a feather on her head. She represents the goddess of truth and justice in their beliefs because her feathers represents truth " 𓆄 ". She places her feather on the scale, and on the other side, the heart of the person is placed, not their actual heart, but their heart which represents their actions in their life and their intentions. If their heart is pure, it will be lighter than the feather. If their heart is full of sins, it will be heavier than her feather. I loved this myth so I wanted to draw something for it. (Suggest more random characters for me to draw. They don't have to be from mythology by the way)
