Maat

Maat is the Ancient Egyptian goddess of truth and justice. She helped weigh the dead soul on the Scales of Truth against a feather. If the scales balanced, the soul was allowed into the Land of the West. If they didn't, a jackal-headed dog ate the soul. She recorded the result into a golden book.
