They believed in many gods.They had gods because they beleived that they created everything.They prayed to the gods because they wanted to thank them and ask them for things.

THE SUMERIANS BELIEVED ONLY IN ONE GOD.I THINK THAT THEY NEEDED THE GODS SO THEY COULD GIVE THEM RESOURCES THEY NEED.THEY PRAYED FOR CLOTHING AND FOOD.

I think the ancient Sumerians believed in one god.They had the gods so they could have things that the gods would produce for them. They prayed to the gods for food maybe clothing and rain.
