Duat is also one of the many names by which the plant Syzygium cumini is known.

In Egyptian mythology, Duat (or Tuat) (also called Akert or Amenthes) is the underworld, where the sun traveled from west to east during the night and where dead souls were judged by Anubis, using a feather, representing Truth. Souls which were weighted down by sin were eaten by Ammut. It is not known however wheather a sinner's heart is heavier or lighter than the feather if they are bad, only that to be accepted into heaven the heart must weigh the same.
