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.
