Religious rites in ancient Egypt were characterized as very rich and varied, not merely because ancient Egyptians were deeply religious and strongly attached to their deities, but also because they were extremely careful about satisfying their gods – the sole controllers over their destiny in the worldly life and in the afterlife. Were the multifarious scenes and texts typical of ancient Egyptians' direct acts of worship both individually and in groups, such acts were not necessarily personal (i.e. egoistic) but sometimes altruistic. These unselfish rituals of adoration are the keynote of the present study to be handled in light of some ancient Egyptian documents.
