Egyptian life is centered around the Nile
used it for everything
drinking, bathing, travel, irrigation
floods every July
recedes every october leaving behind rich soil
delta is big triangular marsh
managing river created break-throughs in irrigation
sphinx built in 2555-2532BC
lion with human head
oldest monumental statue in the world
wicked cool video that is now distracting me as i try to find "explorations of the pyramids" on youtube
Pharaoh
Officials+noble+priests
Soldiers
Scribes
Merchants
Artisans
Farmers
Slaves
Used Money and Barter
