The Religion of Ancient Egypt

by Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie ...

Before dealing with the special varieties of the Egyptians' belief in gods, it is best to try to avoid a misunderstanding of their whole conception of the supernatural. The term god has come to tacitly imply to our minds such a highly specialised group of attributes, that we can hardly throw our ideas back into the more remote conceptions to which we also attach the same name.

Methods and Aims in Archaeology

by William Matthew Flinders Petrie ...
