Quiz and Beginning Egypt

Today in class we took a 20 question quiz. I think I did well and got all of them right except one question. After I finished the quiz I started reading the chapter on civilization in Egypt. By using mathematical knowledge and engineering skills the Egyptians built magnificent monuments to honor dead rulers. Many of he monuments built by the Egyptians stand as a testament to their ancient civilization. Egyptian settlements arose along the Nile River. The yearly flooding of the Nile brought rich soil and fresh water to their crops. The Egyptians worshiped the Nile like it was a god. In Mesopotamia their kings were LIKE gods but in Egypt their kings ARE gods to them. That's all for today.
