Why It’s Important
The Egyptians settled in the Nile River
Valley of northeast Africa. They most likely
borrowed ideas such as writing from the
Sumerians. However, the Egyptian
civilization lasted far longer than the citystates and empires of Mesopotamia. While
the people of Mesopotamia fought among
themselves, Egypt grew into a rich,
powerful, and unified kingdom. The
Egyptians built a civilization that lasted for
more than 2,000 years and left a lasting
influence on the world.

The Nile
• The Nile River flows north 4,145 miles from
the mountains of central Africa to the
Mediterranean Sea. 
• In Egypt the river cuts a narrow, green
valley through the desert. 
• Shortly before the Nile reaches the sea, it
branches to form a fan-shaped area of
fertile land called a delta. 
• Most ancient Egyptians lived in this area.
10

the information. Section 1 begins on page 67 of your textbook.
The Nile (cont.)
• For a long time, they were protected from
foreign invasions by the desert, the sea,
and waterfalls called cataracts. 
• Every year, about the middle of July, the
Nile overflowed its banks. 
• The flood waters went down but left
behind large amounts of rich soil good for
growing crops.
11
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
The Nile (cont.)
• Egyptian farmers planted their fields while
the soil was still wet. 
• To water their crops during the dry
season, the Egyptians dug out basins, or
bowl-shaped holes. 
• They used a machine called a shadoof
to lift water from the Nile to the basins. 
• The Egyptians raised flax, wheat, barley,
and grapes.

Section Assessment (cont.)
Making Comparisons How did the
Egyptians’ use of the Nile compare
with the Sumerians’ use of the
Tigris and Euphrates rivers?
Both Egyptians and Sumerians depended
on the rivers for living, and both civilizations
controlled their environment. The Egyptians
dug out basins and built irrigation canals to
the fields. The Sumerians also built
irrigation canals. The Egyptians raised flax,
wheat, barley, and grapes. The Sumerians
grew barley, wheat, sesame, flax, fruit trees,
date palms, and vegetables.

The Old Kingdom
• At first, Egypt was made up of two
kingdoms. 
– One was Upper Egypt, which lay in the
southern part of the Nile River valley. 
– The other was Lower Egypt, which lay in the
north delta. 
• Narmer, also known as Menes, was a king
of Upper Egypt. 
• About 3100 B.C., he led his armies from
the valley north into the delta, uniting the
two kingdoms.
18
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information. Section 2 begins on page 69 of your textbook.
The Old Kingdom (cont.)
• About 2600 B.C., the Old Kingdom started in
Egypt. 
• During the period of the Old Kingdom,
Egyptian cities became centers of religion
and government. 
• Most Egyptians lived on large estates
along the banks of the Nile. 
• A household was made up of an owner’s
family, servants, and artisans. 
• Most Egyptians, however, were farmers
who lived in villages on the estates.
19
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
The Pharaoh
• The Egyptians believed that the strength
and unity of their country came from having
a strong ruler. 
• Egyptian rulers were eventually called
pharaoh, meaning “great house.” 
• To Egyptians, the pharaoh was a ruler, a
priest, and a god. 
• The pharaoh owned all the land in Egypt,
but he gave gifts of land to rich Egyptians
and priests.
20
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
The Pharaoh (cont.)
• The pharaoh also chose all government
officials. 
• The word of a pharaoh was law. 
• The Egyptians believed that what
happened to Egypt depended on the
pharaoh’s actions. 
• As chief priest, the pharaoh carried out
certain rituals. 
• Pharaohs were treated with great respect.
Whenever they appeared in public, people
played music and bowed to the ground.
21
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
The Pyramids
• Another way the people of the Old Kingdom
showed how they felt about the pharaohs
was by building them great tombs called
pyramids. 
• They were designed to protect the pharaohs’
bodies from floods, wild animals, and
robbers. 
• It took many people and much work to build
the pyramids.
22
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Religious Beliefs
• The Egyptians believed in many gods, the
most important of which were the river god
Hapi and the sun god Re. 
• Another important god was Osiris, god of
the harvest and of eternal life. 
• If a person had led a good life and knew
certain magic spells, Osiris would grant
the person life after death. 
• The Egyptians also used a process called
embalming to preserve the bodies of the
dead.
23
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Religious Beliefs (cont.)
• To embalm a body, the Egyptians placed it
in a wooden box and covered it with a
chemical called natron which dried it out. 
• After the shrunken body had dried, it was
wrapped with long strips of linen. 
• The wrapped body was known as a
mummy.

the answer.
The Middle Kingdom
• About 2300 B.C., government officials,
jealous of the pharaoh’s power, took control
of Egypt. 
• Almost 200 years of confusion followed. 
• Finally, new pharaohs brought peace and a
new period called the Middle Kingdom. 
• Pharaohs had less power in the Middle
Kingdom. 
• After death, they were no longer buried in
pyramids but in tombs cut into cliffs.
30
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information. Section 3 begins on page 73 of your textbook.
The Middle Kingdom (cont.)
• The Middle Kingdom came to an end in
1786 B.C., when Egypt was invaded by the
Hyksos, a people from western Asia. 
• The Hyksos ruled Egypt for about 150
years. 
• They copied some Egyptian customs but
most Egyptians hated them. 
• Around 1550 B.C., an Egyptian prince
named Ahmose led an uprising and drove
the Hyksos out of Egypt.

its cities grew larger. 
• It was during this period that the Egyptian
empire was founded. 
• One warrior-pharaoh, Thutmose III,
extended Egyptian control into Syria and
Palestine.
37
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information. Section 4 begins on page 74 of your textbook.
The New Kingdom (cont.)
• One of the few pharaohs who was not

had ruled Egypt before her stepson. 
• Her chief interests were trade and the
building of temples.
38
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Religion
• The Egyptians of the New Kingdom began
to worship a new god. 
• They called the new god Amon-Re and he
became the most powerful god of all. 
• People built many temples in his honor. 
• The temples were also schools–places
where young boys were trained to be
scribes.
39
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Religion (cont.)
• One kind of Egyptian writing was
hieroglyphic, or a kind of writing in which
pictures stand for words or sounds. 
• However, scribes needed an easier form
of writing to keep records. 
• So, they developed two other kinds of
writing in which hieroglyphs were rounded
off and connected.
40
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Decline of Egypt
• Over time, the priests of Amon-Re gained
much power and wealth. 
• As time passed, the pharaoh’s power
declined. 
• Then, about 1370 B.C., a new pharaoh
named Amenhotep IV came to the throne. 
• He did not like the priests and wanted to
return power to the pharaohs. 
• Amenhotep IV closed the temples of AmonRe and fired all temple workers.
41
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Decline of Egypt (cont.)
• He set up a new religion that was different
from the old religion because only one god,
called Aton, was worshiped. 
• After Amenhotep IV died, about 1360 B.C.,
his son-in-law Tutankhamen became
pharaoh. He was only nine years old. 
• The priests made Tutankhamen return to
the old religion.
42
Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display
the information.
Decline of Egypt (cont.)
• Little by little, Egypt lost its power. 
– One reason was the struggle between the
priests and the pharaohs. 
– Another was the pharaohs’ attempts to keep
neighboring countries under Egyptian control. 
• By 1150 B.C., Egypt’s empire was gone. 
• Egyptian civilization kept growing weaker
until Egypt was taken over by a people
known as the Assyrians in 671 B.C.
43

Tutankhamen
c. 1369 B.C.-1351 B.C.
Egyptian Pharaoh
Nicknamed the “boy king,”
Tutankhamen came to power at age 9.
He pleased the priests by rejecting
Akhenaton’s religion. Although frail,
he loved to race chariots and hunt
animals. When he died at age 18,
officials placed him in a treasure-filled
tomb. The tomb’s beautiful contents,
discovered in 1922, made “King Tut”
one of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs.
77
A Big Pyramid
The Pyramid of Khufu contains more
than 2 million stone blocks that
average 2 ½ short tons, or 2.3 metric
tons, each. The pyramid originally
stood 481 feet, or 147 meters, high.
Today its base covers about 13 acres,
or 5 hectares.

Diets Change
The diet of poor laborers and farmers
in ancient Egypt consisted largely of
bread, made of wheat and a grain
called emmer. Today most villagers
and poor city dwellers in Egypt eat a
simple diet based on bread and fool, or
broad beans. For a typical evening
meal, each person dips bread into a
large communal bowl of vegetable
stew.
81
Mummies
Today scientists are able to perform
CAT scans on mummy cases, allowing
the scientists to see inside without
opening the mummy case. Using
computers, they turn the twodimensional CAT-scan pictures into
three-dimensional images of the
mummies.
