ANCIENT RELIGIONS
Introduction
We know that in the world today there are many different religions and beliefs which influence cultures. But were these the first religions? The oldest religion still practiced today is Hinduism and it can be considered an ancient religion as it's origins stretch back further than any other. The question is that in a world that has existed for so long what other belief systems of religions have existed?
Ancient civilisations in Egypt, Greece, Rome, Italy, Celtic Britain and Europe, Scandinavia, Australia, North America, South America and Asia existed long before many of our modern religions. So why don't many more religions exist today
