They believed there were 13 steps on ladder to spiritual completion of the soul, so pretty much, yes.
"The Egyptians had a more detailed account to explain their god’s connection to this number. Osiris, the powerful solar god of life and death, was murdered by Typhon, his treacherous brother. Trying to restore her husband (who was also her brother) back to life, Isis collected his body. However, Typhon stole it, cutting it into fourteen pieces and scattering them around the Earth. Although Isis searched long and hard, she was only able to reclaim 13 of the body parts. As a whole (no pun intended), this story implied that “thirteen” was the precursor to total completion. Furthermore, this number 13 symbol held more significance in ancient Egyptian life, as there were believed to be thirteen steps on the ladder to eternity, the last of which is believed to signify the spiritual completion of the soul."

Did ancient Greeks have guns?
Honey, the ancient Greeks were too busy sculpting marble and debating philosophy to worry about guns. Guns didn't come around until the 9th century, long after the Greeks were strutting their stuff in togas. So, no, the ancient Greeks did not have guns, but they did have plenty of drama and mythology to keep them entertained.
