The Ancient Egyptians believed in a Pantheion of Gods just like the Ancient Greeks or Romans. It is believed that all these belief systems are linked. They believed in Osiris, the first king of Egypt, ruling the rest of the Gods, including his evil brother, Seth, and many Gods with animal heads. They believed that people went to an underworld when they died, and had to keep themselves clean for it. They also held other beliefs, like that the body consisted of 40 channels, and the channels could get blocked by rotten food etc. and they would fall ill as a result. These are just some of the beliefs held by the ancient Egyptians.
