The Greek and Egyptian culture uses the creation of man in different ways, but both represents each of the gods in similar uses. Although in the two myths, the beginning was nothing but darkness. Then each tells the story of the first being, or god in this case, to bring life into the world. This god would create the sun, sky, earth, and other natural beings. In the Egyptian myth, Re is the first being. He had the power to speak of a name, and that name would come to life. He spoke of the rising sun and setting sun, Khepera and Atum; he spoke of the wind, Shu, and the earth, Geb. Re also named mankind, his last creation for Egypt. The Greeks had a different view for the creation of man. Chaos was the first being, and he created Ge. Ge
