Answer:

The ancient world was comprised of mysteries.  There were no scientific explanations for the structure of the world, the existence of humans, or the meaning of life.  To explain these dilemmas they turned to religion and mythology.  However, as were often isolated geographically there was no universal answer to any of these questions, though many cultures many have derived similar solutions to certain questions, despite being separated by large physical distances, such as the Greeks and Egyptians.  Although there are minor differences, Greek and Egyptian mythologies share many similarities.  

One parallel between Greek and Egyptian creation stories is that they both begin with a God or Gods being created from the universe. The creation of…show more content…

In Greek and Egyptian mythologies, there is a supreme God.  In Greek tradition this was Zeus, “Zeus was now King of all the gods and lived on Mount Olympus.” (Corsar, Reid Rooney, and Smith 9)  In Egyptian mythology, this position was first held by Osiris, and the other deities herald him by saying “He lives, the King of Upper and Lower Egypt, beloved of Ra, living forever!  Heir of Geb, Osiris, beloved of the gods, Osiris, given life, endurance, joy, health, all happiness, like Ra!” (Kaster 81) After being murdered by Set, he became ruler of the Netherworld, and was replaced as King of Upper and Lower Egypt, by his son, Horus.  The idea of a supreme deity is common in both Greek and Egyptian traditions.  

Some Greek deities can also be identified with Egyptian ones, in particular the Greek Dionysus and the Egyptian Osiris.  They both preside over fertility, in addition to their other duties.  Another similarity is that they are both twice-born.  Dionysus was born  first from Semele’s womb and then later from Zeus's thigh.  Osiris was the son of Geb and Nut and was resurrected by Isis after being murdered by Set.  (Livingston, Greek and Egyptian Religious Parallels)  Other Gods and Goddesses that are similar include Horus and Apollo, Isis and Demeter, Hathor and Aphrodite, Neith and Athena and Bast and Artemis. (FOOTNOTE GREEK AND EGYPTIAN RELIGIOUS PARALLELS) There appears to be an overlap between many deities in Greek and Egyptian mythologies, and they are both very important

Answer: I hope this helps you with your answer

Explanation: In book II of The Histories, Herodotus uses Greek god’s names in reference to Egyptian gods. He is clear in stating that they are the same, but different names. He very rarely uses Egyptian names, but does mention that the Greeks took Hercules name from the Egyptian name, as well as his parent’s names, which may give light to the idea that he thought ancient Greek mythology derived from ancient Egypt mythology. There are similarities in the interactions between god and man, and immortality especially when comparing the Pharaohs to heroes. The common use of the term Egyptian Pantheon, a Greek routed word typically used to refer to the gods also shows their connection. In order to further portray the contrast and similarities of Greek and Egyptian mythology to Herodotus, I think it is important to look at some of the Gods he compares. In doing so we can start to see the way in which different cultures myths relate and transform, even in referencing modern religion, and the way past scholars viewed these transformations. This could also show evidence of the function of religion and myths when comparing the differences to the local culture and environment.  Herodotus refers to Atum (Ra) as Zeus. Ra and Zeus are both considered the king of the gods, and father many gods. Pharaohs are also considered sons of Ra, similar to heroes in ancient Greek text, who are demi-gods that are often sons of Zeus, although they do not rule but are leaders in war. Zeus represents the sky, while Ra represents the sun. The rays of light projected from the sun in some images are also often seen to show similarities to Zeus lightning bolts.  Herodotus also shows similarities between the goddesses Isis and Demeter. Isis is one of the central gods of the ancient Egyptian Pantheon, and Demeter is the one of the central Olympian Gods. Isis and Demeter are similar through their symbolism of fertility in how they “[give] birth to heaven and earth” (Book of the Dead). They also share similarities through the image of “woman’s form, horned like a cow, exactly as the Greeks picture Io, and cows are held by far the most sacred of all beasts of the herd by all Egyptians alike” (The Histories, 2.41.2). Herodotus references many other Egyptian gods comparing them to Olympian gods and demi-gods. This brings up the question of whether Herodotus is correct in his theory that Greek myth derived from Egyptian myth, or whether it was just a happenstance occurring from the popularity of polytheism.

Answer: essay and a novel

Explanation:

Prose is a form of writing that consist of no formal metrical structure as it is made of a natural flow of speech, rather than being rhythmic like in a poetry. Examples of prose include letters, essays, novels, short stories, journals, editorials, and articles.

The longest types of prose are essay and novel. An essay is simply a written piece which presents an idea, or express an emotion. A novel simply means a lengthy narrative. A novel is a narrative fiction which tells a particular story.
