If you just need three, though, here are three of the most important ones: Ra - The hawk-headed Sun God; he is one of the Ennead who were the original nine gods Osiris - God of the Dead who watched over the underworld Seth - The jackal-headed God of the Deserts If these aren't the three you're looking for, you can read more at this link to a site set up by the British Museum on Egyptian gods: http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/gods/home.html
