Ancient Egyptian Maat Goddess of Truth Antique Pharaonic Statue BC Rare Antiques

Description: Ancient Egyptian Maat Goddess of Truth Antique Pharaonic Statue BC Rare Antiques Description Although she was often personified, Maat (Ma’at) is perhaps best understood as an idea, rather than a goddess, but she was central to conceptions of the universe, balance, and divine order in Ancient Egypt. The name Ma’at is generally translated as “that which is straight” or “truth” but also implies “order”, “balance” and “justice”. Thus Ma’at personified perfect order and harmony. She came into being when Ra rose from the waters of Nun (Chaos) and so she was often described as a daughter of Ra. She was sometimes considered to be the wife of Thoth because he was a god of wisdom. The ancient Egyptians believed that the universe was ordered and rational. The rising and setting of the sun, the flooding of the Nile, and the predicable course of the stars in the sky reassured them that there was permanence to existence which was central to the nature of all things. However, the forces of chaos were always present and threatened the balance of Maat. Each person was duty bound to preserve and defend Maat and the Pharaoh was perceived as the guardian of Maat. Without Ma’at, Nun would reclaim the universe and chaos would reign supreme. SizeAs Shown At Pictures.
