Egyptians
We took notes on:
Earliest writing formed c 3100 BC and were small pictures known as hieroglyphics.
Egyptian script was usually written in ink on papyrus which was made form massive Nile reeds.
Papyrus, the precursor to paper, was stored in scrolls and these scrolls were the books of ancient Egypt.
Egyptians created a 12 month, 365 day calendar with seasonal cycles.
Egyptians doctors wrote the health issues out and created potions and cures for illnesses.
Wooden sailboats constructed to increase transportation on the Nile.
Cataracts- rapids
4100 miles- Nile river
The pyramids were massive tombs made out of marble until stripped by Muslim conquest.
The temple of Amon at Karnark is the largest religious building.
