Sumerian beliefs, rooted in a polytheistic religion, greatly influenced their daily lives and societal structure. They believed that gods controlled every aspect of nature and human existence, leading to practices centered around appeasing these deities through rituals, offerings, and temples.

Consequently, their agricultural and social activities were closely tied to religious observances, shaping their culture and community cohesion.
