The Religions of the Ancient Near East were mostly polytheistic, with some early examples of primitive Monolatry (Mardukites) and Monism (Atenism). Some scholars believe that the similarities between these religions indicate that the religions are related, a belief known as patternism. Especially the Luwian pantheon exerted a strong influence on the Ancient Greek religion, while Assyro-Babylonian religion influenced Achaemenid-era Zoroastrianism and Judaism. Both Egyptian and Greek traditions in turn strongly influenced Christianity.
