The Mesopotamians believed in several gods. Each city had its own special god. People performed ceremonies each month. The theme of the rituals and festivals for each month was determined by the phases of the moon. The king was the chief priest and thus occupied an important position in the society. He was conisdered as the representative of God on the earth. 

the Mesopotamians buried their deads with various objects such as weapons, ornaments and vessels. This shows that they believed in life after death.
