The Amulet of the Hearts |
The physical organ bid hat as a material bodily entity and ab as a religious body. The heart was considered the seat of reason, faith, and center by the Egyptians and was unremarkably left in the body during mummification. A heart
scarab was took in the wrappings because the heart showed at the Discernment Halls of
Osiris. The heart was weighed there against a feathering of the deity Maat to set the worthiness of the deceased. Heart Amulets were hot in the
New Kingdom (1550-1070 B.C.E.) and were intentional out of carnelian or glass.
