What did the ancient egyptians invent to keep track of records?

They invented the 365-day calendar. They used the Sun to keep track of the days throughout the years. They divided the year into 3 seasons of 4 months. Each month had 30 days. Their year had 360 days. The ancient Egyptians also used shadow clocks. The first ones were obelisks. The moving shadows formed a kind of sundial to help tell time. The sundial was then used very often since.
