Egyptians
Egyptians took their dreams very seriously as dreams were believed to be oracles through which their Gods communicated. Egyptians divided their dreams into three different categories in which the dream might 1) demand a religious action, 2) make a revelation or warn the dreamer and 3) come to the dreamer in a ritualistic setting.
Regardless of its category, however, oftentimes Egyptians would undergo a long journey to lie down on "dream bed" where their Gods would be more "attuned" and receptive to bestow upon them advice or healing needed.

Egyptians
The Egyptians (Egyptian: ; Coptic: ni.ramenkīmi; Arabic: مِصريّون ; Masri: مَصريين ) are a North African ethnic group native to Egypt. Egyptian identity is rooted in the lower Nile Valley, the small strip of cultivatable land stretching from the First Cataract to the Mediterranean Sea and enclosed by vast deserts. This unique geography has been the basis of the development of Egyptian society in antiquity.
