Small irrigation canals were constructed by the farmers over whose land they flowed. They worked together creating a system to work as efficiently as possible. Big irrigation projects were initiated by the Pharaoh. He commanded his hydraulic engineers to made plans and his surveyors to mark out the route on the ground. Then hundreds, perhaps thousands or tens of thousands of naked slaves were set to work to make the plans a reality.

The Sumerians, who lived in the region, utilized canals to control the flow of water from the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and irrigate their fields, allowing for successful agriculture in an otherwise arid environment. These canals played a crucial role in sustaining the civilization of Mesopotamia.
