Egypt

If you were in ancient Egypt and you got sick what would do

Funny, you have the exact same question I have for my ancient Egypt quiz!! 6th grade.... sorry getting off topic {LOL} Okay, so I'm pretty sure this is the answer: First, there were mastabas, but then pyramids came because one of the pharaohs wanted something more than a mastaba, and then robbers robbed the riches from the pyramids, and they took a long time to build, so they decided just to bury them under the hills of the desert... and that's all I got :)

Hope this is okay

Haha, this is the exact question for mine : Write a paragraph describing how the tombs of the pharaohs gradually changed during the history of ancient Egypt.

so, summary : 1-mastabas, 2-pyramids 3-under the desert

Egyptian society was oriented around the River Nile, which was used for transportation, watering the crops, and as a site for prayer (since the river was essential to the lives of Egyptians, many regarded it as a sacred place, and some believed a goddess named Anuket preserved and maintained the river). Egyptian society was ruled by a leader called a Pharaoh (who was like a king or queen), and there were definite social classes. For example, upper class people dressed in beautifully-made clothing that was superior in quality to what the poor had; the wealthy also wore jewelry and amulets that were supposed to bring good fortune. Many wealthy people had servants or slaves to work on their land, and the poor had few ways to move up in the society. The Egyptians were polytheists, and worshiped a number of gods and goddesses; they also believed in life after death, and made elaborate preparations so that they would be ready for the next world after they died.

The kings of Upper Egypt wore a white crown, don't let anyone get you confused about that.........I learned it in Social Studies class today!!! XD

The current Wikipedia has the following information on the Climate of Egypt. see related link

Egypt has a arid desert climate. It is hot or warm during the day, and cool at night.

In the coastal regions, temperature daytime temperatures range between an average of minimum 14 °C (57 °F) in winter and average of maximum 30 °C (86 °F) in summer.

In deserts the temperature vary to a great degree, especially in summer; they may range from 7 °C (44.6 °F) at night, to 40 °C (104.0 °F) during the day. While the winter temperatures in deserts do not fluctuate as wildly, they can be as low as 0 °C (32 °F) at night, and as high as 18 °C (64.4 °F) during the day.Hot and dry Khamsin winds blow in the Nile Delta region

There should not be any changes to the temperature from current to ancient Egypt that current information on climate might not be the best available for ancient Egypt

The slaves and peasants worked and made giant mud blocks and they dried in the heat, and they used pulleys and levers to help make them. They dug tunnes and passageways before building to put the mummy in.

Well I know that cats and some dogs possibly even cattle were domesticated. Cattle were used to help move massive objects that man alone couldn't move. As we all know cats and dogs were worshiped for the Egyptians reasons. Cats and dogs were domesticated but we don't know why. Hope this helped!

Egypt was a theocracy. Therefore, religion played a central role in defining laws, conforming societal values, and condoning the Pharaoh's rule.

There are a number of people that lived before the Egyptians. This mainly included cavemen and they were the ones known as homo sapiens.

It led to the current Syrian Civil War in that it gave hope to the Sunni majority of Syria that they could overthrow the yoke of Bashar al-Assad's tyranny. Of course, the problem is that they would like to institute their own form of tyranny as recompense.

The people were too interested in their religion

The traditional way to greet the Pharaoh is. this You would walk into his prescence but bowing forward and then you'd kneel on the floor and lie on the ground (like in a similar to a kowtow) and kiss the ground beneath his feet. In later times important government officals would be permitted to kiss his feet.

when speaking the prostration formula would be appropriate, NEVER address him as King or Pharaoh, a crime worthy of death. Refer to him as 'your majesty', 'son of Ra' etc

The ruler of ancient Egypt that united the upper and lower Egypt under the rule of one Pharaoh was Pharaoh Menes circa 3100 BCE. He was also called Pharaoh Narmer, but could be called Menes. The capital city of Egypt during the Old Kingdom was Memphis, which was named after him. Hope this helps! (Egyptian Zorro)

This depends quite strongly on who was being conquered, but usually it resulted in large percentages of the population being enslaved and brought to Egypt to work. It also resulted in a change of local customs and religions to match Egyptian norms.

A female pharaoh ,named Hotshepsut, chose to dress as a man. Where as other female Pharaoh's wore simple tight fitted dresses that came up to there chest.It was held up by gold straps. The clothes were made out of linen or other imported fabrics.

Egypt is in the continent called Africa.My dad says Egypt is not in any continent.

The region of Northern Egypt is termed Lower Egypt because it is further downstream on the Nile River. Conversely, the region of Southern Egypt is termed Upper Egypt because it is further upstream on the Nile River. The Nile River flows from south to north.

Original Answer Provided: "Menes is the King who united Upper and Lower Egypt"

REVISED ANSWER:

Whilst it can be 'suggested' that Menes was responsible for the uniting of Upper and Lower Egypt, the serious lack of archaeological evidence to support Menes even existing as a living entity in his own right, and under that specific name, means it is not entirely accurate to state him as even a Pharaoh let alone a king responsible for the unification of Egypt.

The argument and debate around Menes and his existence is to whom he relates. Most Egyptologists and historians alike would have it that Menes is one and the same with Narmer (originally thought to be King of Upper Egypt and who leads the strongest claim to being responsible for the unification). Research into Narmer provides strong links between him and Menes, and some of the greatest Egyptologists of the last few centuries, such as Flinders Petrie were convinced they were one and the same.

(However some suggest, due to archaeological finds (and stories relating to both characters that are closely matched); that Hor-Aha (son of Narmer) is actually Menes.)

When you look into this deeper, you discover that is likely that Menes, King Scorpion, and Narmer could potentially all be the same person.

It is further suggested that Menes is the collective name for Ka, Scorpion and Narmer.

Failing that, it is quite possible that Menes is a simply a mythical or semi-mythical character.

Whilst the Egypt Historian Manetho has mentioned Menes, and credited him as the first ruler of Egypt, receiving the honour directly from the God Horus, his name does not appear on the Palermo Stone, and it is only much later in Egyptian periods that the name really begins to be associated with the early ruling of the civilization.

So to the original question posted - Given the stronger archaeological discoveries relating to Narmer over 'Menes' I believe the answer should be Narmer (archaeological discoveries have shown depictions of Narmer wearing the pschent, a crown with two halves representing the 'two lands' of Egypt - in particular the Narmer Palette). Though there could be an argument that potentially his son Hor-Aha played a part (which is possible given that the unification would likely have occurred gradually over many years rather than in a singular event); though the debate will no doubt rage on for many years to come.

Imperialism in Egypt was positive because the Lord Cromer built a dam at Aswan to improve agriculture. It was a negative for Egypt because there was a lack of education beside elementary and technical education and the economic and social life were controlled by the British agents.

One of Ramses's accomplishments where building the temple complex at Abu Simbel. Also, he was made captain of the Egyptian army at the age of ten! All this stuff is true because I got it out of my history book...

Another name for NUbia is Kush. Another name for NUbia is Kush.

Muhammad Anwar El Sadat was the President of Egypt in 1973. He took office in 1970 and served until he was assassinated in 1981. In 1973, he led the country in what was called the October War in order to liberate the Sinai Peninsula from Israel.

The three different types of pharaohs are:

>Tut (Tutankhamun)
