Day 7- Finnishing up Egypt

Today in class we went over the Egyptian part of the reading. In the reading it talked about the climate of Egypt which is hot in the deserts but was good near the Nile but got worse the further away the town was. The book also talked about the soil which was fertile after the silt deposits from floods. There were almost no geographic defenses. There were three kingdoms/times and there were the upper kingdom and the lower kingdom which the lower kingdom is closest to the equator and the upper kingdom is further away. The reason for this is because of the elevation of the kingdoms.The middle kingdom started when the old kingdom got invaded by outsiders. The last kingdom was the new kingdom and they came from the Middle Kingdom and from outsider and they continued for a short time. The Egyptians used mummification to preserve their body’s for kA the after life
