Extractions: General Info Places of Interest Pyramids History ... Egypt History History Egypt is among the most influential of Arab states. The history of Egypt can be traced 5,000 years back as a remarkable way of life, or civilization, grew up along the banks of the Nile River in Egypt. It flourished for over 3,000 years, longer than most other civilizations in the world's history. Egyptian history begins around 3300 BC. From 3100 BC inscriptions created a way for later Egyptians. It was also the time when the pharaoh, King Menes, created Egypt by uniting the two parts of Egypt, also known as Upper and Lower Egypt, into a single kingdom. He started Memphis in the north and Abydos in the south as his capital cities.

http://pharaoh.heavengames.com/egypt/history/pyramids/intro.shtml

Extractions: Introduction When a pyramid was built, a whole host of support services appeared in the vicinity to maintain it. Housing was needed for the priests who manned the temples, and also for the guards who protected the corpse of pharaoh from people who would like to get their hands on the treasures entombed in the pyramid and the jewellery placed on the body. Farms were needed to provide food for the workers, and so on. It is no wonder that one author has written, "So the pyramid was also an economic engine and, especially during the Old Kingdom, a major catalyst for internal colonisation and the development of Egypt as one of the world’s first true states". The Pyramid Complex ka ). It is also likely that there would be low mastaba (literally "bench") tombs surrounding the complex, belonging to the nobles who served under pharaoh.

HOME Temples and Tombs Pyramids of Giza Thebes Valley of the Kings A journey along the Nile The waters of the mighty Nile allowed the otherwise dry land of Egypt to become a cradle for one of the world's greatest ancient civilizations. From the start of the Old Kingdom around 2686 BC, a great era of rule by pharaohs of more than 30 family dynasties continued almost unbroken for nearly 3000 years. After the glorious New Kingdom, the age of the Egyptian pharaohs ended with decline and rule by the Ptolemies. Today, we can travel along the Nile and explore a succession of old temples and tombs that are testimonies to the remarkable achievements of the people of ancient Egypt. The Old Kingdom: AGE OF THE PYRAMIDS The ancient Egyptian civilization of the Nile Valley came of age under Old Kingdom rulers of dynasties 3 to 6. Their greatest legacies are the huge Giza Pyramids, the results of a spectacular program of pyramid building. The Pyramids of Giza epitomize ancient Egypt, but they were the results of a short period of pyramid building during the Old Kingdom.

Extractions: Review by Ian Stewart. excerpt: You are led into a royal tent, pitched near the pyramids, and bow before the pharaoh and his queen. "I have summoned you to ask you to find who stole the treasure from the pyramid of my forefather," he says. "You must not fail me." A man steps forward. "Great pharaoh, let me find the thieves," he says. "I will bring them to justice whoever they are." The queen puts up her hand for silence, "Thank you, Hori, but as leader of the pharaohs guard you are well known throughout Egypt. For this task we need a stranger." Middle years students who have an interest in history and mystery should enjoy this book set immensely. It contains an introductory history book on ancient Egypt and a paperback mystery adventure story. The two books are very compatible and together create a stimulating educational experience. It is clear that the ancient Egyptians were a god-centered people; the primary focus of life was religious observations and a concern for the afterlife. However, many books tend to focus almost exclusively on these aspects, giving the impression that Egyptians were entirely death-centered. They forget that people had to make lives for themselves: farmers had to sow and harvest; artisans had make goods; merchants had to sell their wares; soldiers had to fight; leaders had to govern; and family life had to go on. If these were not done well, Egypt could not have existed as a Mediterranean and African power for many centuries.

Extractions: THE ROUTE OF THE EXODUS JOURNEYS Part 1 (Originally published in January 1993) The first in-depth study we will present will be the events of the Exodus journey, beginning with the time the multitude leaves Egypt until they cross the Red Sea. A map is attached for reference. We will systematically take each step of their journey. We do not continue their journey once they cross the Red Sea and enter Midian, but we do show on the map the location of Mt. Sinai. FIRST, LOCATE MIDIAN As I began to study the Biblical account, in Exodus 3, Moses encounters the burning bush while he is in Midian, tending the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law. There, God tells Moses that he is to bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt: EXODUS 3:12; "And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: "When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain." Moses was told in this verse to bring them back to Midian, to the mountain where God spoke to him. In my studies of ancient Egyptian history, it became clear to me that Midian was not in the Sinai peninsula—that it was in northwestern Saudi Arabia: GALATIANS 4:25; is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.". All through the Sinai peninsula there is tremendous evidence of the ancient Egyptians having control of this area. The inscriptions tell of their mining operations there. There are temples out there as well as fortresses. Had Moses led the people across the Gulf of Suez, they would have still been in Egyptian-controlled territory.

http://www.wargamer.com/egypt/history_main.asp

Extractions: The establishment of the Egyptian civilization coincides with the 'drying up' of the Sahara desert. While the Sahara was green pastoral grazing land before 3000 BC, this drastic climatic change (disaster) caused the peoples to migrate. Thus the Nile valley became the densely populated stretch of land it still is. There has been some furious scholarly debate about who the ancient Egyptians were. The old sources, like Herodotus, claim the Egyptians were black, like the Ethiopians - and in this respect very different from other peoples inhabiting the coasts of the Mediterranean. It seems that in the ancient world there was no doubt about to which race the Egyptians belonged: they were blacks. During the European colonial era - from 1800 onwards - a scientific tendency emerged to paint the Egyptians 'white'. This popular vision still survives today, stimulated by the fact that present-day Egyptians are predominantly of Arab stock, thus officially part of the 'white' race. Thus, we see actors as Yul Brynner playing the role of Pharaoh in Hollywood spectacles. I remember there's one Michael Jackson video clip in which Eddy Murphy appears as Pharaoh. This picture is probably much closer to the truth.

http://www.swan.ac.uk/classics/modules/clh101.htm

Extractions: From the late fourth millennium BC Egypt was one of the greatest political and military powers in the Near East, forming the earliest example of a great nation state in that area. Not only did it create an enormously successful and long-lived governmental system which lasted in some form down to the establishment of Christianity in the country, but it played a key role in the destinies of neighbouring communities, in particular those of the Upper Nile Valley to the south and Syria-Palestine to the north-east. This module is concerned with the first two thousand years of the political and military history of this phenomenon. Lecturers: Professor A.B.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/middle_east/newsid_1831000/1831616.stm

Extractions: The train accident in which at least 300 people died while travelling from Cairo to the south of Egypt is by a long way the worst train disaster in 150 years of rail travel in the country. This accident was caused by a fire, possibly started by a passenger - and not a crash. One thoery is that the fire could have been started by a passenger preparing food Egypt has a comprehensive rail network. There is a high standard rail service available to tourists and Egyptians who can afford it. However, most Egyptian rail passenger travel packed into cramped compartments on old, slow trains. Passengers on long-haul journeys often carry large amounts of baggage, take small animals onto the trains and prepare their own meals - sometimes using portable gas cookers. Recent Egyptian train disasters: November 1999: Train between Cairo and Alexandria hits truck and derails, killing 10 and injuring seven.
