Ancient Egypt Exploration Worksheet
Field notes: life in Ancient Egypt
Ancient Egyptian civilisation grew along the River Nile in north-east Africa. Each year, the river’s floodwaters spread dark, fertile soil across its banks. Farmers grew crops such as wheat and barley, while the river also provided water and a route for boats carrying people and goods. Beyond the green river valley lay dry desert. Egypt was ruled by a pharaoh. Scribes learned to read and write using hieroglyphs, a system of signs that could represent sounds, words or ideas. Most people could not read or write. Pyramids were monumental tombs built for some pharaohs. Egyptians prepared some dead bodies through mummification because they believed the body was important in the afterlife. The process took time and included drying the body and wrapping it in linen.
