Best Answer

They drank a lot of water or sat in the shade. There were not many effective ways to keep cool in the Ancient Period. As a result, many Egyptians died of dehydration and heat stroke in those times. However, as the Egyptian lifespan was so short anyway, most people died of much simpler causes.

Egyptians had to, for the most part, just grin and bear it.

In Modern Egypt, people have all of the conveniences found in Western countries like fans and air conditioning. Fans are used more, though, since it costs much less to run and repair them.

Egyptians who were in the wealthy class had many luxuries. Commoners had village houses. Houses in Ancient Egypt were not very sturdy. The houses crumbled in about two years. A wealthy person's house was very beautiful. They had many places and rooms in their house. Some of these places were the family chapel, chariot house, central hall, garden, pool, main entrance, and stables. The workers worked and slept in the servants' quarters, kitchen, gatekeepers lodge, grain silos, and the stables. Wealthy people's Ancient Egyptian homes were very colorful. Rich Noblemen liked to make their walls detailed with pictures. Most pictures on wealthy Ancient Egyptian walls were gods and goddesses(compound subject) they worshiped. Village houses were more ordinary then rich peoples' houses. People that lived in village houses were not very wealthy, having wealth.(appositive) A village house had two floors which were the main floor and the roof. Ancient Egyptians used the roof for cooking and a storage area. The first floor had a main room, a passage room, a bedroom, an entrance room, a living room, and a reception room. People in Ancient Egypt loved color, and they had colorful houses.(compound sentence) At the top of the first floor and the bottom of the roof they had steps to the roof and a column supporting the roof. The houses in Ancient Egypt were not very sturdy. Ancient Egyptian houses were made out of mud, bricks, sand, and reeds. They had whitewashed outside walls and unglazed windows. Inside of Ancient Egyptian houses there were bright, patterned walls and tiled floors. All houses, even Pharaohs' houses, had no running water. Egyptians loved cleanness, so to clean things they got a wet rag, went to the well to get it wet, and went back to their house to clean. When the Nile flooded it would ruin the houses so they built low platforms. Their were some typical things for commoners to have in their houses that they bought and sold.(compound predicate) Some of the things that included fire were lamps, a hearth, and a cylindrical, baked clay stove. Ancient Egyptians slept in wooden beds with linen. They ate on a platform for eating. Most Egyptians had clothes, a portable lavatory, and a low table. For storing things most Ancient Egyptians had cabinets. To cook some Ancient Egyptians had a two-handled pottery saucepan. Wealthy people had many luxuries. Instead of cabinets wealthy Ancient Egyptians had enjewled cosmetic cabinets. Since Ancient Egyptians did not use pillows because the snakes would kill them they used headrests. Ancient Egyptians had their own wells, cattle pens, and store rooms.To sit in comfort , wealthy Ancient Egyptians put cushions on their chairs. They had big courtyards. In their living room they had foot stools and woven rush mats. Just like middle class Egyptians, they had sheets.
