Before Christianity... before Judaism..

Apologists would argue that since there is no direct connection to prove interaction between cultures then this would not apply.

The counter to that is simple. Think about all the people you meet once, just once in your life. You don't keep a record of all the people you meet.

Plus this forgets the overlap over multiple cultures over thousands of years. It is like telling a story in a circle and by the time it gets back to you it is completely different. However, in the case of history you are dealing with several circles over thousands of years, like a mesh chain divers suit. The link on the top is connected to two or three other links, but by the time you get to the bottom of the mesh chain suit the links at the top are not connected to the bottom directly.

I don't know when this video was made, but I have argued for years that the motifs in the Egyptian era as far as souls and judgement of the dead, are far more than proof that humans simply pass down stories and other groups change those stories and pass them on to other groups.

The Temple of Luxor is the oldest known "mother and child" motif depicting Isis holding the baby Horus.
