Hapi was believed as the god of Nile River which played as an important role in constructing civilization. Water and soil are needed for the production of any type of crops. Hapi was believed to bring these two main elements of production, giving him the name Hapi (maker of barley and wheat).

The Nile was such a big deal to the ancient Egyptians that their calendar began the year with the first month of the flooding. Ancient Egyptians used to believe that the Nile was a present from the gods.
