Geography- waterGeography- water The Nile R. was a great source

of water. Also the Mediterranean Sea was

important- not to drink but to get fish out of.

The Nile ran north which was important because the Egyptians could use as a “highway” to send goods to the Mediterranean Sea, also the wind went from the north to the south so if you put a sail on your boat you could go south too.

Finally the Nile R. was also a natural irrigation system

It was a natural irrigation system because it would flood every month or so it would give fresh water to plants!

Daily LifeDaily Life Government officials- these social workers mainly worked for

the pharaoh. What they did was carry out orders, they were the most powerful group in Egypt (besides the pharaoh). They were powerful, wealthy, and enjoyed a good life.

Priests- they were also a very powerful group. The reason that they were so powerful was because religion was so important in Egypt. Priests were in charge of temples, religious rituals, and death ceremonies surrounding death and burial.

Scribes- the scribes held a respected position in society. They recorded information for religious and government leaders. It took many years of schooling to become a scribe.

Artisans- this position included carpenters, metal workers, painters, sculptors, and stone carvers. Artisans were highly skilled, but had a low social status.

Peasants- they were the largest social class. Peasants worked the land, providing Egypt with a stable food supply. When they weren’t working in the farm, they were working on the pharaoh’s massive projects!
