What did the two wings mean for the ancient Egyptian priestesses?

Wings had nothing at all to do with priestesses, but they were associated with protective goddesses. In the tomb of Queen Nefertari some of the scenes depict various goddesses in protective poses, equipped with wings. These include Ma'at, Hathor and Isis. The symbolism is a little obscure, but the wings may refer to the vulture hieroglyph representing the word for "mother" in the ancient Egyptian language, where each goddess takes on the protective role of a mother towards the recently deceased person.
