Abstract

The research dealt with one of the themes related to ancient 
Egyptian beliefs, which is the nature of taboos, the concept of 
obligation and manifestations of religious exigency and 
obligation in ancient Egypt. The subject of the research can be 
addressed through the implied aspects of the essence and concept 
of taboos in general, and the vocabulary and linguistic synonyms 
associated with taboos in the ancient Egyptian language. As well 
as the concept and moral significance of taboos from a religious 
and social perspective in ancient Egyptian doctrines, as well as 
the concept of Bwt and its political significance, and how and 
causes of taboos and manifestations of taboos from the ancient 
Egyptian political perspective, in addition to the symbolic 
connotation and religious significance of the existence of taboos 
in ancient Egypt, what is the moral responsibility and who is 
responsible for defining those taboos and the process of imposing 
them, as well as the classes of ancient Egyptian society that 
imposed taboos on them. This clearly indicates the concept of 
obligation and the essence, connotations and manifestations of 
exigency and obligation in ancient Egyptian thought and beliefs.
