All ancient peoples, Semitic and non-Semitic, believed in some form of continued life after death. This has been shown all over the world, in ancient writings, burial-practices, art, etc. No one in the ancient world was completely secular. Rather, you might ask what the precise afterlife-beliefs were, among specific branches of the Semitic peoples (or others). Included among the Semites were the Assyrians, Elamites, Arameans, Lyddians, Arabs, Israelite Hebrews, Moabites, Ammonites, Edumeans and others.
