What do the ancient Egyptians and Greeks have in common in religion?
Common among these ancient peoples is polytheism. This is a fairly long period of time. This period ends with the emergence and spread of world religions. As a result, Christianity became the main religion for the Greeks, and Islam spread in Egypt. But there are also significant differences in polytheistic beliefs. The Egyptians paid a lot of attention to animals. The reason for this attention was their lifestyle. The Egyptians lived in a kind of “oasis” in the Nile River valley. Crocodiles and hippos lived in the river. This is noted in the relevant beliefs. The Greeks quite densely inhabited their peninsula and did not come into contact with such exotic animals. Among the Greeks, gods and people are similar. Moreover, they had sexual intercourse. The result of such actions was Hercules.
