The customs of ancient Egypt, the daily routine of the population, the cities, the crafts, and the economy derive their importance from agriculture, its needs, and its benefits. Herodotus emphasized that Egypt is the gift of the Nile and that the Nile River is the source of all aspects of life, including the religion of the ancient Egyptians and Pharaonic mythology. ^[1] The Neolithic revolution occurred on the banks of the Nile River through the breeding of domesticated animals. ^[2]

State regulation

The fact that the Pharaoh is the embodiment of the god Horus on earth led to absolute rule over the rest of humanity since pre-dynastic times. ^[3]

Religion

The gods at that time were incarnated in human form, despite the intervention of some other elements taken from animals, in order to represent the power and authority of the god. Followed by family relationships, which are considered extremely important to Egyptians, and are grouped into family triads. This way they were easy to remember and recognize. ^{[4] [5]}

Mummification

The Egyptians mummified the pharaohs using a number of materials, including tar, which helped preserve the bodies for a long time.
