The Egyptians would write down what gods they worship and how they help us from the sky where they believed they lived, an example would be doctors would write down the god of healing, and they believed this god would cure the sick. They wrote about their gods a lot and even had symbols representing each god. Writing was incredibly important and sacred to the egyptians. They believed writing the name of the pharaoh gave him or her immortality, while destroying the written name killed the pharaoh forever.
