Souls weighed in the balance. Bas-relief of Autun Cathedral. The Last Judgement is believed to have been created around 1130. The sheer size of the tympanum required that double lintels support it with a middle column to further support the sculpture. The left side of the tympanum displays the rise to the heavenly kingdom, and on the right is a portrayal of the demons in hell with an angel and a devil weighing the souls on a balance. The psychostasia, Greek "weighing of souls'" is a method of divine determination of fate, which persists from the Iliad through to christian theology. For Christians, among the terrors that await at the Last Judgment is the weighing of souls. Sin is heavy, and sinful souls are to be consigned forever to Hell.
