ANCIENT EGYPTIAN RELIGION

Religion was the primary focus of Egyptian life; all daily life was centered around religion and was characterized by three main aspects.

Animistic: the belief that gods were representative of natural forces such as floods, the moon and the sun.

Anthropromorphism: gods took on human-like characteristics when they visited earth.

Polytheistic: Egyptian religion contained a pantheon of many gods, some representing a village, with others representing the whole kingdom.
