Loading ...I’m definitely thinking 4 toes means a dog or a cat… both animals actually have five toes, it’s just that the fifth is up near their “ankle”.

From The Book of the Dead. In the center, Anubis weighs the heart against the feather of Maat. The heart represents the soul. Above the heart, the human-headed bird, Ba represents the contestant’s personality and beside that we see a human head on a box, the mummified body of the contestant. To the right, ibis-headed Thoth takes careful notes and Ammit waits for the final judgement. Thoth is an impartial figure in Egyptian mythology… the small ape sitting on top of the scales assisting Anubis is a manifestation of Thoth, a kind of arbiter in the process. Thoth is an important figure who is paralleled by The Logos, or the Word of God in Greek and Christian thinking. Thoth basically is the force that manifests and invents things, gives the shapeless form, including words numbers and science. You could in a way say that Thoth is a kind of… electromagnetic force.

One more thing… people are saying that the statue has long hair… but look at this pic of the back side of Tutanhkamun’s death mask:

It clearly shows that the headdress was brought to the back and tied simulating a braided pony tail (like a french braid).

wow great theory, is it possible that the island is purgatory? and all the events that happen to the character are trials of judgment.

Wow. So well written, not sure how anyone who watches the show could disagree that the show is based in Egyptian culture and ideas in some part.
I feel like I should read this several times to figure out how all the pieces relate into what I’ve watched on the show but …
If we base lost on what you wrote, those that have past the test, aren’t attacked by the Smoke Monster, in which case they are allowed passage … to the ominous Jacob cabin? Everyone still on the island hasn’t finished passing the tests, and has yet to fail any. The place truly sounds like “death” in some form.

very cool and very fluid prose! its got to be something egyptian because one cannot ignore the hieroglyphics etc.

I don’t think people on the island are dead, as that would have made it impossible for them to return home… but I do think that if you follow the logic on all of the Egyptian stuff… maybe this island sat IN Egypt at some time? In the south, near Aswan, the Nile opens up into a lake and there are several small islands. This marked the southern border of Egypt and many temples were built on the islands.
