Class on February 19

  Today we studied a chapter about the ancient Egypt. Egyptian's life is centered around the would's longest river, The Nile river. One of the unique thing about this river is it is flow from south to north instead of north to south. Egyptians use water from Nile for drinking, irrigating, bathing and transportation. Nile river flood every year on July and leave behind rich soil on October. In the Egypt,
there is a huge statue called" The great Sphinx of Giza". This is a statue with a lion head and human's body. It is build on 2555-2532BC, more than 4000 years ago. It is the oldest monumental statue in the world. Egypt have a hirachy social form. The slaves at the bottom of pyramid serve rich people with household and child raising duties.
