The judgement of the soul:
On the far left is sitting Osiris, the god of the afterlife. (The head of Osiris is lacking.)
On the table before Osiris is sitting the devouring goddess of the souls. In case that the soul does not pass the judgement, she devours the soul of the dead.
Then follows the Ibis-headed god Thot, the divine scribe who records the result of the judgement.
Behind Thot follows the jackal-headed god Anubis, the divine embalmer.
The falcon-headed god Horus operates together with Anubis the scales. On the left side of the scales sits the soul, on the opposite side is the counterbalance in form of a heart-shaped vessel.
On the far right stands the dead persons escorted by Maat, the goddess of truth and justice, and another goddess.
