Ancient Egypt - Culture
by Kari Phippen
The ancient Egyptians were a religious people. Two of the earliest religious cults were sun and nature. As an agricultural society, they depended upon the cyclical nature of the Nile floods to replenish the lands with fertile topsoil and they depended upon the sun to help produce a bountiful harvest. Witnessing the natural processes of the earth likely influenced their beliefs in the afterlife.
Kamil explains,
Such religious beliefs pervaded society. Egyptians often buried their dead on the West bank of the Nile River presumably due to their belief that the underworld was located in the west where the sun died each day. Relatives of the dead often buried miniature boats in their tombs to transport the soul in the afterlife. Like many other tomb artifacts, these were often marked with symbols of the sun God Re.
Great Pyramid
organization
The pictograms, hieroglyphics, murals and contents found in such edifices reveals a great deal about daily life in ancient Egypt. They offer answers to the question of why construction of these monuments was undertaken in the first place and give evidence of the effect they had on the life of the common man. The symbolism of the tomb paintings carried spiritual meaning. Through pictograms, murals on tomb walls we also know that their religious beliefs had a fundamental effect in shaping the organization and structure of Egyptian society.
Scholars argue that the first written language arose out of the need to keep records of harvests and rainfall. Historians believe that as few as one percent of the populace were literate. Scribes held a special position in Egyptian society and were revered as powerful and important people. The occupation required mastery of over 700 hieroglyphs representing objects, ideas, or sounds. Their education involved the study of reading, writing, and mathematics. Scribes functioned as tax collectors, record keepers, even architects. Scholars further suggest advances in astrology arose out of their need to predict the annual flood.

Allard, Denice. The Egyptians (Pictures of the Past). Milwaukee: Gareth Stevens Publishing, 1995. (Nonfiction Picture Book, RL Ages 7-9). Annotation: This book describes various aspects of life in ancient Egypt. Each section is accompanied by a detailed illustration of the concept being explored. Topics include home life, recreation, life on the Nile, and religion. This book would be a good reference book for young students.

    Lecture 2
    Ancient Western Asia and the Civilization of Mesopotamia
    What is good in a man's sight is evil for a god,
    What is evil to a man's mind is good for his god.
    Who can comprehend the counsel of the gods in heaven?
    The plan of a god is deep waters, who can fathom of it?
    Where has befuddled mankind ever learned what is a god's conduct? Before Civilization
    Between 9000 B.C. and the beginning of the Christian era, western civilization came into being in Egypt and in what historians call Ancient Western Asia (modern-day Cyprus, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Turkey, southwestern Russia, Iraq and Iran). The earliest permanent settlements occurred between 9000-6000 B.C. and were accompanied by the domestication of plants and animals. Between 4000-3000 B.C., the first cities appeared in response to the pressures of population growth, the organizational requirements of irrigation and the demands of more complex trade patterns. According to our previous definitions, these societies of Egypt and Ancient Western Asia correspond to what we would call civilization (see Lecture 1 Around 10,000 B.C., many hunter-gatherers living along the coastal plains of modern Syria and Israel and in the valleys and hills near the Zagros Mountains between Iran and Iraq began to develop special strategies that led to a transformation in the human community. Rather than constantly traveling in search of food, people stayed in one region and exploited the seasonal sources of food, including fish, grain, fruits and game. At a community such as Jericho, people built and rebuilt their mud brick and stone huts rather than moving on as had their ancestors. In general, these communities began to focus on seasonal food sources and so were less likely to leave in search of new sources.
