Note 18 — LECTURE I. The Scientific Study of Primitive Religions—Methods and Definitions.

Reading edition

Besides the general works on Egyptian religion, I may note R. Pietschmann, “Aegypt. Fetischdienst und Götterglaube,” in Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, Bd. x., s. 153, sq. He points out that there was no unity in the ancient cults of Egypt, as the gods were those of the nomes only. The worship of Osiris did not prevail generally till after the sixth dynasty (p. 165).
