buried their dead in small pits in the desert. The heat and dryness of the sanddehydrated the bodies quickly, creating lifelike and natural 'mummies'.

Pyramids

Sample Image

The ancient Egyptians built

The ancient Egyptians built pyramids as tombs for thepharaohs and their queens. The pharaohs were buried in pyramids of many different shapes and sizes from before the beginning of the Old Kingdom to the end of the Middle Kingdom.

Geography

Sample Image

The ancient Egyptians thought of Egypt as being divided

into two types of land, the 'black land' and the 'red land'.

The 'black land' was the fertile land on the banks of the Nile. The ancient Egyptians used this land for growing their crops. This was the only land in ancient Egypt that could be farmed because a layer of rich, black silt was deposited there every year after the Nile flooded.
