After a plane crash, the passengers are stranded on an island of unknown location where they will have to fight for their own survival. This will not be the only challenge for the unfortunate new inhabitants of the island, as all sorts of unexplained events occur.
Although Lost is not set in ancient Egypt, references to Egyptian culture are present from the first season to the last.
From the beginning of the series, a large statue of Taweret is present on the island's beach, without having any impact on the plot. It is worth noting that the women on the island experience fertility issues (cannot have children), which may suggest a connection with this egyptian goddess, although the series does not explicitly state it.
Additionally, several buildings on the island feature hieroglyphs, many of which are related to time (S05 E05). At station number 3 (The Swan), where Desmond Hume is located, there is a countdown timer. When the timer reaches zero, the word swḏȝ (meaning 'to die') appears in hieroglyphics (S02 E23). The same sequence of hieroglyphs is also present on the Ajira Airways boarding pass of the plane that will later crash, representing a dark omen for the future of all the passengers.

In the Dharma Initiative classroom, Jack erases a blackboard on which is written two phrases: “The language of Egypt” (rȝ n Kmt) in hieroglyphics and the stages of the Egyptian language in English (S05 E13).
Finally, the Boy in Black had a Senet set. He found the board and black and white pieces on the beach, and he made up his own rules for it. He and Jacob frequently played the game with each other (S06 E15).
These references indicate a connection between the ancient inhabitants of the island and ancient Egypt. However, the nature of this connection is never disclosed in the TV series.
