PEASANT
I take part of the COMMON PEOPLE in the Egyptian society.
With my daily work the people of Egypt is dressed and fed. I cultivale
the land and get flour to make bread, barley to make beer and linen
to make clothes.
When the Nile floods the land and I can’t cultivate, I work making
buildings for the Pharaoh.
However, my will is not important, since I’m a subject for the Pharaoh
and I depend on the decisions taken by the privileged class.
