Egypt's geographical isolation and the unique geography of the Nile Valley are thought to have been responsible for its long existence.

No direct explanation is given for the origin and nature of the luminous bodies, the sun, the planets, and the stars. Because the Sumerians regarded the moon-god, who went by the names Sin and Nanna, as the son of the air-god Enlil, it does not seem unreasonable to suggest that they saw the moon as a bright, air-like body fashioned from the atmosphere.

Regardless of time or place in popularity, each creation myth was integral to the Egyptians' worldview.
