Ancient Egypt for Kids
Myths and Legends
The ancient Egyptians gods were very different from the gods in other ancient civilizations. For one thing, most their gods had animal heads or blue skin or something that set them apart from people. There were over 2,000 gods in ancient Egypt. That left lots of room for lots of stories and myths and tall tales about their many gods. Here are just a few of them:
