The ancient Egyptians were polytheists like the Ancient Greeks and Romans, meaning they believed in many different gods, each of which had a specific area of authority. In the Old Kingdom each city acknowledged a primary deity. Some gods were more prominent than others, and their prominence vaires over time; probably due to the number of worhipers they had.

Some prominet examples were Aten, Ptah, Bast, and Osiris.

There are several hundred gods recorded in the records that survive from that time period, and probably many more that have no surviving records.
