Annotation
The Egyptian landscape offers a multiplicity of geographic settings. These geographic settings also had their impact on the formation and shape of the ancient Egyptian religion. Since its beginnings at the creation of the ancient Egyptian state until its last stage in late antiquity the ancient Egyptian religion had gone through various changes and development. In the later periods, not only the geography of Egypt itself, but also of other surrounding regions could be traced. The dissertation aims to assess these geograhic influences both on religion and its related phenomena.
