Egyptians tended to approach life more confidently and optimistically than their neighbors in the Fertile Crescent. Religion played an important role in the lives of Egyptians.
-Like Mesopotamians, the early Egyptians were polytheistic, believing in many gods. The most important gods were Re, the sun god, and Osiris, god of the dead. The most important goddes was isis, who represented the ideal mother and wife. In all, Egyptians worshipped more than 2,000 gods and goddeses. They built huge temples to honor major deities.
-In contrast to the Mesopotamians, with their bleak view of death, Egyptians believed in an afterlife, a life that continued after death. Egyptians belived they would be judged for their deeds when they died. Anubis , god and guide of the underworld, would weigh each person's heart. To win eternal life , the heart could be no heavier than a feather. If the heart tipped the scale, showing it was heavy with sin, a fierce beast known as the Devourer of souls would pounce on the impure heart and gobble it up if the soul posses the test for purity, and the truth, it would live forever in the beautiful Other world.
