Did you know?

A few things to look out for as you explore Ancient Egypt.

The Great Pyramid of Khufu was the tallest human-made structure on Earth for more than 3,800 years.

The Nile’s annual flood left rich black soil — called kemet, “the black land” — that made farming possible in the desert.

The Great Sphinx at Giza is carved from a single limestone outcrop and has watched over the plateau for around 4,500 years.

Hieroglyphs mixed pictures and sounds — scribes used them for temples, tombs and official records, while everyday writing often used a simpler script.
