Ancient egypt was a polytheistic society what does that mean

Polytheism is belief in many gods — it's kind of the opposite of monotheism, which is belief in one god. If you believe in polytheism, you have a bunch of gods to thank or blame. ... Usually in polytheist religions certain gods are associated with specific things, like war or love.

-hope this helps :)

Polytheistic society means: the worship or belief in multiple deities, which are usually assembled in a pantheon of Gods or Goddesses, along with their own religions and rituals. 

which also sums up Ancient Egypt for there Gods like Horus. Some even say Egypt was the first religion and that many religions today all came from Egypt's.
