KIDS' ANIMATED HISTORY EGYPT

It is very interesting to watch this video because so many things can be learned about Ancient Egypt.
1. Pyramids, the most famous symbol of ancient Egypt which were actually tombs for the Pharaohs (rulers) with a lot of treasures.
2. The Sahara Desert, the biggest hot desert in the world which would also protect them from any attacks from enemies.
3. The Nile River, one of the largest rivers in the world which overflows too much when it is the rainy season but it makes the soil very good for farming after the flood is gone. The nomads (wanderers) started building homes near the Nile River. This is how Ancient Egypt was born. Because of the Nile River, farming with irrigation and trade started the Egyptian civilization.
4. The social pyramid is a group of different people with different importance, such as the Pharaohs (rulers), the Priests (performs offerings & rituals), 
the Scribes (writers who used hieroglyphics), the Soldiers (protectors of Egypt & conquerors), the Traders and Craftsmen, the Peasants and the Slaves.
5. Egyptian art will always have wall drawings that tell how they live. 
6. Egyptian science -- from the Egyptians, the study of the stars was learned because they have many astronomers and scientists. They made the 365-day calendar. 
7. Imhotep, founder of Egyptian medicine, high priest and 1st known architect in history.
8. Papyrus is an early form of paper where notes from medicine were written down.
9. Mummification, the way they preserve the dead.
10. Rosetta Stone, a carved black stone tablet that tells about the history of ancient Egypt.
11. Tutankhamun tomb which was discovered by Howard Carter, which was believed to be cursed after it was opened.
12. Cleopatra was the last Pharaoh of ancient Egypt who fell in love with Marc Anthony who lost to the Roman Empire. 
The end of the Egyptian empire started because many of the Pharaohs have been fighting among each other while others have also invaded Egypt until they lost. But even when the empire has fallen, the Egyptians have given us so many things in history.]]> 2017-10-31 09:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/s_tristan115066/o9a782acvjcp/wish/202043299
