Mythology Osiris - Anubis

🤩🇪🇬 At the end of the trial, Osiris passed sentence: If the heart was less heavy than the feather of Maat, and the sentence was positive, his Ka (the vital force) and his Ba (the soul force) could go to meet the mummy, form the Aj (the "beneficial being") and live forever in the fields of Aaru (Paradise in Egyptian mythology). But if the verdict was negative, and his Ib was heavier than Maat's feather, then Maat was thrown at Ammyt, the devourer of the dead (a being with a crocodile head, hippopotamus hind legs and mane, torso and forelegs lion), which ended with him. This was called the second death and meant for the deceased the end of his immortal condition; that person ceased to exist for the history of Egypt.

Cartonnage of Panehsy

 Cartonnage of Panehsy 

The mummy shell of the priest Panehsy is a very beautiful specimen. It is decorated with winged figures of gods and hieroglyphs. These paintings have a general protective meaning. The back of the sleeve features a djed pillar, the Egyptian symbol for sustainability and eternal existence.

This tight-fitting mummy sleeve is made of layers of linen with plaster (cartonnage). The material of such a sleeve consisted of linen soaked in gum Arabic. It was then plastered, pulled around the mummy and tied at the back with laces. The sleeve was painted in all kinds of colors and often decorated with gold leaf.

Finally, the wooden beard is inlaid with blue pieces of probably glass.

ALEXANDRIA 1897

Mohamed Ali Square, Alexandria Egypt.

By the 1880s, Alexandria had blossomed into a thriving port city, its layout and architecture reflecting the strong European influences at play.

Its medieval streets were blown out into grand boulevards and public squares, and the laying of modern, eventually electrified, streetcar track was a beacon of progress within the heavily colonialized Egyptian city.

In 1882, the British further invested in the Alexandria Tramway, followed by an even larger investment by a Belgian rail company in 1897, who bought the rights to the Tramway, which thereafter became known as the Alexandria Tramway Company.

Following its European takeover, the Alexandria Tramway began the process of electrification, in keeping with similar street rail systems around the world.
