Most of the ancient Egyptians worked as farmers.

Their dwellings are made of clay designed to keep the air cool during the day.

In the kitchen there is usually a millstone for grinding flour and a small oven for making bread.

Ancient Egyptian civilization flourished for about three and a half centuries.

Starting with the initial unification of groups that existed in the Nile Valley around 3150 BC,

this civilization is traditionally thought to have ended in about 31 BC,

when the early Roman Empire conquered and absorbed Ptolemy’s territory as part of a Roman province.

Although this was not the first foreign occupation of Egypt,

the period of Roman rule brought about a gradual political and religious change in the Nile Valley,

which effectively marked the end of the development of Egypt’s independent civilization. Along the Nile,

In the 10th millennium BC, the culture of curing ore using the earliest type of sickle eye has been replaced by the culture of the hunter population,

hookers, and hunter-gatherers who used stone tools. Evidence also shows the presence of humans in southwestern Egypt,

near the Sudanese border, before 8000 BC. The exchange of weather and / or moreover the ragut around 8000 BC began drying out the ragut fields in Egypt,

which eventually led to the formation of the Sahara (2500 BC),

and the early tribes were automatically motivated to move to the Nile where they developed the local agricultural economy.

There is evidence of growing and planting of ore in Eastern Sahara in the 7th millennium BC.

So that 6000 BC the inhabitants of ancient Egypt in the southwest corner of Egypt had herd bulls and built large buildings.

Mortar in building construction was used by about 4000 BC.

The predynastic age of Egypt continued throughout this period,

previously held by various Naqada cultures. scholars however originate the Egyptian Predynastic earlier,

in the Lower Paleolithic (see Predynastic Egypt). In essence, Egyptian culture developed since 3000 BC,

which we already know is in the Nile Valley, which is the longest river in the world.
