In the beginning he talks specifcally about how his father was a follower of Marcus Garvey and he believes that he was born to educate people about the people of the nile valley culture because he was born into it. Once he got older and more mature his father went on to tell him that he believed all aftrican people were the children of Ham and he needed to educate people of the nile valley culture because it is where christianity, juhdism, and islam all began. He said lots of major prophets went into africa seeking knowledge including moses, who was taught in the temple of ahnu for over 40 yrs, abrahaham and sabra, who grew rich in cattle and land because of the hospatality of the people of the nile. Also Jesus ' life and mohammad and his 40 deciples life was spared because of the hospatality of the people of the nile. This indicates the character of the people of the nile valley. His father said to learn more about the people of the nile valley stude the farmers and gardners of the land. At the the they had only studied the intrudes and the people who attacked them. Thats his reasoning in indulging his self so much in the nile valley people. He states that in 1970 he began to adopt Dr. Ben s his spiritual father because all of his writings he loved so much and went on to explain why people tend to say that Egypt is in the middle east because of the royalty that it is connected with, people dont want it to be in connection with africa at all. He talks about some of the
The Egyptians were very lucky to have the Nile River because without it they wouldn’t be able to survive. The Nile shaped Egypt by granting them with almost everything they needed. Where the Nileś source came from may have been a riddle to them but we know that came from Lake Tana which is the branch called the Blue Nile and from Lake Victoria which is the other branch called the White Nile. Egypt has been around for five thousand years and for all of those five thousand years the Nile River helped the Egyptians survive in Egypt. The Nile River shaped Ancient Egypt by setting a calendar, providing food and water,
Without the Nile River, Egypt today may not have existed. The Nile River helped shape Ancient Egypt’s diverse culture and various philosophies, which is what made it a very successful (if not the most successful) ancient civilization. The Nile did this in numerous ways such as allowing travel, producing art and religion, and flooding so that people could grow crops. Without the Nile, the success of Ancient Egypt would have been debateable. Ancient Egyptians did have the Nile River however, which led to their ultimate success for almost 3,000 years.
Just as the Tigris and Euphrates rivers shaped the worldview of early Mesopotamians, The Nile shaped the world view of the Egyptians. The Nile River was easily navigated and fairly temperate, which made for one of the greatest agricultural regions in the world at that time. Like clockwork, each year the Nile River would flood the land, leaving behind nutrient-rich silt that provided a bountiful harvest the following season. Due to the agricultural success of the land that followed the Nile the majority of Egyptians would settle close to it shores. The Nile Rivers benevolent waters also allowed the Egyptians to transport its most valuable resources to the southern regions of Africa, especially the divine metal that had been endowed by the gods to Egypt's elite. Even today the Egyptians are considered to be the pioneers of water management.
The Nile River shaped Ancient Egypt society. By: Sima Gollub “The study of mathematics, like the Nile, begins in minuteness, but ends in magnificence” - Charles Caleb Colton. The Nile River shaped Ancient Egypt by: water for food and drinks, trading, roads, transportation, and jobs. If the Nile did not flood every year the Egyptians would not have enough water to survive and thrive.
The Nile river shaped ancient Egypt in many ways. The Nile was important to everyone who lived in ancient Egypt. Without the Nile River the ancient Egyptians would have never survived. The Nile was a big part in everything that the Egyptians did. The Nile took a big part in agriculture, economics, and religion in ancient Egypt.
Did you know that the Nile River is the longest river in the world and flows for over 4000 miles? With the last 660 miles of the Nile River flowing through Lower Egypt and the Nile Delta, it played a big role in ancient Egypt from the time of the first pharaoh in 2920 BC through 30 BC. The Nile River shaped Ancient Egypt in at least 3 ways. It provided for their food supply, transportation and trade, and spiritual beliefs.
Around 40 million people, half of Egypt’s population, lived in the Nile Delta region. The Nile flowed up towards the delta, making it easy for the Ancient Egyptians to trade goods, have water, and plant crops. The Nile river shaped Ancient Egyptian society by providing a seasonal calendar, an irrigation system to help with crops, and safe, secured, settlement lands. The Nile river helped shape Ancient Egypt Society by providing a seasonal calendar which dictated the harvest cycle.
Did you know that the Nile river gives crops water?Although the flooding season and the farming population would build government projects. But with not enough water in the crop season would be poor. The Nile flood cycles are Akhet(flood season) Peret(planting & growing season).With too much water the Nile too much water in it will destroy homes. (Doc B). Did you know about 500 miles of the Nile is in Egypt?Provided they used transportation to get to there crops.
1. How did geography influence the development of Egypt? The nile was a big influence on Egypt’s geography.
He used verses in Bible,which “ God hath given the Earth unto the Sons of Adam, Psal 115.16. And hath made of One Blood, all Nations of Men, for to dwell on all the face of the Earth; and hath determined the Times before appointed, and bounds of their habitation” (Samuel 2) to prove that everyone was “Sons of Adam” (Samuel 2) in order to persuade people that slavery should not be existed on the earth. Also, he argued that “men stealing was ranked amongst the atrocious of capital crimes” (Samuel 3) because it was a form of crime when people took, bought, held and labeled slaves. In his article, he used objective and answer form to argue that why selling the slaves were unreasonable and lawless. Overall, he stressed that it was very evil to sell the slaves and strongly advocate the freedom of slaves which means slavery should not be allowed
The Nile River is arguably one of the most important water sources in the world and has an extremely rich history dating back thousands of years. Without the Nile, the ancient Egyptian civilization would have never existed. Egypt is basically a whole lot of sand and not much else, except they have the Nile River flowing through it, on it’s way to the Mediterranean sea. The ancient Egyptians lived along the Nile River and it provided them with abundant water, food (fish) and the opportunity to develop agriculture along it’s banks. The Nile River was also used for transportation and trade with other regions because land travel was more difficult than floating on the river. The Ancient Egyptians were at the mercy of the seasonal flooding and
Egypt spans across the northeast corner of Africa and the southwest corner of Asia. The country is bordered by the Mediterranean sea and the Red Sea as well as Libya to the west, Sudan to the south, and Israel and the Gaza strip to the east. The majority of Egypt's 390,000 square miles of land lies within the Nile Valley of North Africa. Egypt has over 87 million inhabitants, making it the fifteenth most populous country in the world. Across the country, days are typically warm to hot and nights are cool. Egypt experiences a mild winter from November to April and a hot summer from May to October. The country receives very minimal rainfall throughout the year due to it’s desert climate.
The civilization of Ancient Egypt was one of the earliest in history one of the things that most help the Ancient egyptians was the Nile river.The Nile river is located in egypt and was a huge benefit to the Ancient Egyptians (Transportation,Water,Food),. Today i am going to explain why that is.
The book Gifts of the Nile Valley tells the history of, not only one of Africa's greatest and most important natural monuments, The Nile River, but also uses that history to link the earliest traces of mankind to Africa. The begging of the book explains the importance of the Nile River both for mankind and for the environment around it. The beginning chapters also explain how the Nile River actually works, which I personally found very interesting. According to the book the Nile River is the longest River in the world , stretching as long as 4,132 miles. It also functions much differently than normal rivers. Unlike other rivers, The Nile River flows south to north. Also, while normal rivers need to be fed rain and connected to other bodies of water, The Nile River runs through mostly desert and does not get any rain. The Nile is also not connected to any other body of water. As bizarre as that is, its not the most impressive thing that this legendary river can do. Throughout its entire length, The Nile river has somehow managed to fertilize the soil around it for up to ten miles. It's believed that through this river, Civilizations from thousands of years ago managed to sustain themselves.
Egypt today can be a viable market for the foreign investor, especially the investor who has the ability to see the rewards of in investing in the region for the long haul. The world and Egypt both realize that the region is the gateway to the Middle East. Egypt is leading the way for Arabic countries to embrace a new way of doing business and opening their borders to the ‘global village’ concept.
