Conozca a los dioses egipcios Es tentador ver la antigua religión egipcia como algo relativamente estático, con un solo panteón cuya naturaleza y actividades no cambiaron a lo largo de los tres mil años del período dinástico. Sin embargo, nada está más lejos de la realidad. A lo largo de la historia egipcia, vemos que los dioses que habían sido favorecidos fueron dejados de lado o sus roles fueron alterados para dar paso a dioses cuyos cultos se hicieron más populares, mientras que los cambios políticos, como la conquista de Egipto por Alejandro Magno, introdujeron intercambios ...
