The best invention in Ancient Egypt

The ancient Egypt did many inventions in the past. The Pyramid is one of them. This is an important invention because it still at this time. Although there are different inventions left by the ancient civilization of Egypt, it is the best invention of all others because it contends died pharaohs. It left a legacy and knowledge about this culture. For this reason we can mention various pros and cons of this invention.

Firstly, this is an invention designed by the pharaohs of ancient Egypt, when they and other important people died; they were buried with his fortune for the way that the ancient Egyptian people believed that died people to travel toward their other world. Also with the pyramids can be investigated the culture, for example the mummification is part of ancient Egypt’s culture. The pyramids show us the knowledge that ancient Egypt could take to build the pyramids. Moreover, the pyramids are a legacy left by the ancient Egyptian people which are part of culture today. On the other hand the pyramids are a sample of architecture that is part of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Secondly, the pyramids are essential to the economy of Egypt. The pyramids show culture and beliefs of ancient Egypt. For this reason the pyramids are a tourist place. Many People travelling to Egypt to see the pyramids and they can get to much knowledge about Egypt’s culture. This has been changing over time. When there is a lot of tourism in the country, this increase revenue. This is an advantage because the Egyptian population may have more money and work. Although there are different inventions left by the ancient Egyptian the pyramids are the biggest tourist attraction in Egypt.

Although the pyramids have many pros, also we can find contras. The pyramids are a very old invention; this can be dangerous for people who visit them. The pyramids are very old and for that it does not have the necessary security for the quantity people that visit it. On the other hand the Egyptian people have rules in order to enter the pyramids for example can not be filmed inside the pyramids. That is why visitors can not have a memory of the pyramids on the inside.

In summary, there are different inventions left by ancient Egypt but the most important inventions are the pyramids. These left a legacy and knowledge about the ancient Egypt’s culture. In my opinion this is the best invention left by this civilization and this may be a sign of the ancient culture of ancient people Egypt.

In ancient Egypt, they had many inventions that left a legacy of humanity. Two of them are the pyramids and the wooden boat and sails. It has been found information on these two inventions. There are many similarities and many differences between the pyramids and wooden boat and sail.


One similarity is that these inventions were developed in ancient Egypt with too many materials. For this reason, both inventions have been a legacy of this culture. Both inventions were developed because population's needs ancient Egypt. Both inventions helped the Egyptian's culture, because both inventions are preserved at present. finally, the development of both inventions continue until this day.


Nevertheless, these two inventions also have many differences. The pyramids were invented in order to the death of farahones while the boat was invented to fishing. Another difference is that the boat could be used as a means of transportation while the pyramids were exclusive to the pharaohs and their families. Another important point is that everyone in the population could use the boat. In addition, the pyramids were much delayed in their building and it need many people involved while the boats were constructed in a short time and it were more useful for the population.

There are differents heroes and gods. In Egypt, people feel that the heroes are the gods. Osiris and Isis are two important gods of ancient Egypt. These two gods are also similarities and differences. I will outline some of these with reference to Osiris and Isis gods.
One similarity is the relationship, because they had a good relationship. Moreover, they were brothers and were married. For this reason, these are very well understood. Both gods governed ancient Egypt and they also left many knowledge. Neither hate other gods as his brother Seth.
They were also beloved by everyone. For this reason, Osiris was taught by other regions while Isis governed. Last, people remember the gods by their government and the culture they left behind.

The Egyptian family and his Pyramid


What are the causes and effects of the pyramid of hierarchy in the Egyptian civilization?
Nowadays, Egypt has been changing because in the past the ancient civilization had different rules and laws. For this, I want to speak about the causes and the consequences of taking them.
First of all, the Egyptian civilization had a pyramid.This shows that the hierarchy had the civilization. The pharaoh was the god to which we all should follow, for this reason the pharaoh was not chosen by the people, because the next pharaoh was the succes of the current. Other causes was that there were slaves in the Egyptian civilization. The salves had to do that the pharaohs requested. Also, the Pharaohs controlled to professional soldiers. On the other hand, the farmers and artisans sold products to the pharaohs to survive. when the childrens grew, they had to do the parents´ job. They did not climb in the pyramid. The last causes produced differents effects.
The first effect was that the pyramid change. In 1971 it made a constitution which was explained that it no longer had pharaohs. This year the town had to choose a chairman. And since then so is governed in egypt. There are new rules and laws. Other effect was that since they remove the name of slaves. They were no longer slaves, and they were giving them more opportunities to be equal to others.
In conclusion have been different causes and effects of what it was before and is now in egypt. For this reason it is interesting to know as the Egyptian civilization and which have been changes.

Life of the Egyptians

What are the causes and effects of the Egyptian civilization?

There are different ancient civilizations. All civilizations have left many lessons on the planet. For this, I must take into account what are the reasons and the consequences that they left us. I want to know about the family, the work, the clothes, the meals, etc.

First of all, Egyptian civilizations are centered on rivers this was based along the Euphrates and the Tigris Rivers and their tributaries. The Egyptian family was along the valley of the river NILE, since this civilization planted their own food throughout this, as they don´t have water. Most of the family worked in agriculture. Egypt was divided between the pharaohs for them was almost a god, priests, artisans, slaves. They had a system based on religious beliefs, under the direction of a character Pharaoh semi-divine, usually male, belonging to a succession of dynasties, possibly not the same lineage.

The second point Egyptians ate necessarily two large meals each day: one at dawn and another at dusk. Leads to Egyptians for go to the market to purchase food. They ate plenty of cereal, vegetables, and fruits. The rich soil of the Nile River made growing crops easy. On the other hand, the structure of the Egyptian family was made up of father, mother and children. The father was responsible for providing his family. The mother stayed home and raised the children. Small children and other female relatives lived in a special part of the house. Much of the children's time was spent in training for their adulthood. By age four the children would help their parents in the field or train as craftsmen. The last causes produced different effects.

The first effect was that the Egyptian civilization only worked in agriculture and they knew develop other jobs. At present the Egyptian civilization leave their areas architectural (houses) where they lived. These spaces are tourist zones at this time. Other effect was that by being divided by a pyramidal structure, many Egyptians were poor and they worked for the Pharaohs. For this reason, the Egyptian slaves were exploited by the Pharaohs and they left than slaves die. Other slaves have many sickness and they also has many hungry.The effect of the family structure was that women were not taken into account when decisions in the family.

In conclusion, the Egyptian civilization is one of the civilizations that leave many lessons. At present the culture of this civilization lies in a world and many people want to see how they are developed in the past, this can be seen in the architectural monuments that left us well to visit and learn more of their culture.

Ancient Civilization

In the past there was too many ancient civilizations who taught us and left us many things. For this reason we have to investigate, because these civilizations displayed as our ancestors lived and know that has changed.

Something was common among the ancient civilizations of China, Rome, Greece, Mesopotamia, Egypt, and India was that most of them started as a dictatorship, a monarchy, or a dynasty.Almost all of the civilizations had one or two great leaders. For example, Egypt had King Tut, Greece had Alexander the Great and Rome had Julius Caesar.
China has had many different leaders through the years. Some of the most powerful dynasties were the Shang, Zhou, and Qin. These dynasties and many others ruled from the times of 1500 BC to 1900 AD.
These ancient civilizations were agriculturally-dependent, it is clear that abundant fresh water would be important.
Most important to early civilizations was the water supply. It also influential are the degree of natural resources and absence or presence of natural barriers. It is no accident that the great ancient of civilization are centered on rivers or river valleys.
Not only were rivers used for irrigating crops and daily water needs (washing, cooking, bathing), but societies also relied on the rivers for communication and transportation.
In conclusion, all the Acient civilizations there were very intelligent and left we too many things and knowlegdes. It is very interesting to know the ancient civilization because they left many thing to visit and know about their culture.
