Did the was sceptre represent Orion by way of the maping of the three mountains in Crete in regards to Giza? Let's not forget that it was held by Osiris.

From:

[www.touregypt.net]

“The was-scepter is one of the highly recognizable symbols, or emblems, found in two dimensional representations and in three dimensional objects of ancient Egypt. It is a well known object to most ancient Egypt enthusiasts, though actually this name for it is a bit deceptive. Technically, it is certainly not always in the form of a scepter, but can also take the form of a stave, or staff, and can also be displayed as a type of border, and in other manners. In fact, Geoffrey Graham, in the Oxford Encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt, refers to it as a w3s-staff”
