The Egyptians believed in an Afterlife. If you did good deeds your heart would weigh less than a feather if you didn't do enough good deeds your heart would weigh more. The Egyptian Afterlife god who ruled the Underworld weighed your heart and if it weighed less than the feather on the scale you were permitted to enter the Underworld but if it weighed more, you were rejected.
