Greek civilization
There is an old saying “Rome wasn’t built in a day.” It could also be said that “Rome wasn’t built by the Greeks in a day.”
To this day the Greeks and Italians often point out the similarities between their cultures. Roman architecture and Greek architecture are strikingly similar. The mythology is nearly the same, though the names are different, both sets of Gods reside on Mount Olympus. Western historians talk about Magna Grecia, a period beginning in the 8th Century BC in which the Greeks colonized what is now known as modern day Sicily, Calabria, Apulia, and Salento. This could account for some of the similarities. However, we need only look to the pages of Rome’s own mythology for further insight into the Greek influences on Rome.
I personally think pop music appeals to younger individuals because well pop bands are usually trying to appeal to kids and pop bands have clean, appropriate, language used in their songs so its all ages. I think the industry promoted this idea by thinking of kids because today in the music industry, its all about trap, hip hop, and R&B and those genres are not kid friendly so maybe the industry thought of kids for a change or maybe did service by making music for kids or maybe are doing it for the glory and fame.

Ancient Egyptian Gods and Goddesses
Ancient Egyptian Gods and Goddesses
For all ancient people, the world was filled with mystery. Much of what they experienced in the world around them was unknowable and frightening. The ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses represented aspects of the Egyptians’ natural and “supernatural” surroundings and helped them understand its many aspects.

Demons
Demons were more powerful than human beings but not as powerful as gods. They were usually immortal, could be in more than one place at a time, and could affect the world as well as people in supernatural ways. But there were certain limits to their powers and they were neither all-powerful nor all knowing. Among demons the most important figure was Ammut – the Devourer of the Dead – part crocodile, part lioness, and part hippopotamus. She was often shown near the scales on which the hearts of the dead were weighed against the feather of Truth. She devoured the hearts of those whose wicked deeds in life made them unfit to enter the afterlife. Apepi, another important demon, (sometimes called Apophis) was the enemy of the sun god in his daily cycle through the cosmos, and is depicted as a colossal snake.
KhepreKhepre
Also known as, Khepri, Khepra, Khepera, Khepre was a creator god depicted as a Scarab beetle or as a man with a scarab for a head. The Egyptians observed young scarab beetles emerging spontaneously from balls of dung and associated them with the process of creation. Khepre was one of the first gods, self-created, and his name means “he who has come into being,” Atum took his form as he rose out of the chaotic waters of the Nun in a creation myth. It was thought that Khepre rolled the sun across the sky in the same way a dung beetle rolls balls of dung across the ground.
