The ancient Egyptians worshiped over 2000 gods and goddesses. Unlike other ancient cultures, whose gods looked somewhat like people, most ancient Egyptian gods had animal heads. 

The ancient Egyptians built temples to honor their gods. Each temple was home to one or more temple gods. 

People prayed to the temple gods for whatever they needed. If their request was not granted, they might give the temple statue a whack with a sturdy reed to let the temple god know how they felt about it. For the most part, the ancient Egyptians were not afraid of their gods at all.
