44. All About Egypt (Masr), Ancient Egyptian History, Pharaohs And Pyramids
Brief overview of egypt covering geography, fauna and flora, history from the pharaohs to the present.
http://www.masr.com/
Visitor # 331989
Egypt presents the visitor with many striking contrasts, particularly in its landscape and in the ancient, Christian and Islamic elements of its heritage. Signs of Westernization and tradition are sometimes found in startlingly incongruous juxtaposition, bur more usually the new is adapted to blend harmoniously with the old. The country itself is united by the great river which flows down its entire length, and which indeed the creator of the country. Without the Nile Egypt would not exist. Along its banks the majority of the people live and cultivate the land as their ancestors have done for thousands of year. This narrow, fertile valley is flanked by the desert- a desert which is always threatening to take over the cultivation. Today controlled by dams and barrages, the Nile no longer floods the country every year. The building of the High Dam at Aswan flooded the whole of the Nile valley between Aswan and the frontier with Sudan, creating Lake Nasser. Preserved from the threat of devastating floods, Egypt is now protected from the dangers of famine by the regulation of the water. The two branches of the Nile, one rising in the highlands of Ethiopia, the other in Lake Vectoria, unite at Khartoum. Flowing north through the deserts of Nubia and punctuated by the rocky Cataracts, the river enters Egypt at the Second Cataract. Aswan itself stands on the First Cataract, the final great bands of granite to break the river's northward course. The Cataract created many rapids and islands which, until the end of the last century, made travel dangerous.

Nile River Geography
Nile Proper . This mighty river flows northward through Sudan and Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. Map Credit
To the south, tropical lakes of Central Africa feed the Nile river. Emanating from Lake Victoria (3720 feet), the Nile flows through Lake Albert (2030 feet) of western Uganda, and northward through southern Sudan as the Mountain Nile to Lake No. Here several smaller tributaries join the river forming the White Nile which flows quietly through the grassy plains of central Sudan to Khartoum.
The Blue Nile drains the high mountains (13,000+ feet) of Ethiopia, with the help of the Atbara River, which flows into the Nile approximately 150 miles north of Khartoum. These two rivers carry rocky debris that eventually forms the fine stone dust known to comprise the black mud of the Nile.
Below (north of) Khartoum the Upper Nile Aswan (also Assuan ), forms the natural southern boundary of Egypt.
Throughout its length, rocky walls, sometimes 600 to 800 feet tall, flank either side of the valley containing the Nile. This valley never exceeds five to nine miles in width throughout the Sudan but broadens past Aswan reaching widths of up to thirty-three miles. Near Gebel Silsileh, about thirty miles north of Aswan, the Sudanese sandstone gives way to limestone. The limestone forms cliffs along the Lower Nile for nearly 475 miles to the Delta
The cliffs reach high, table-like plateaus that are surrounded by sand from the nearby deserts. The Libyan Desert, the northeastern part of the Sahara, borders the Nile to the west. To the east, the limestone plateau skirts the Arabian Desert which parallels high mountains further east. Primarily granite and gneiss, these mountains border the Red Sea and rise to heights of 6000 feet or more.

Egypt also plays a major role in the life of many Bible people from Moses and Joseph to Jesus. So let's start out by looking at Egypt and just where in the world it is and then we will look at the people, the culture and all that other neat stuff! Here are some activities to get you started. As alway have your notebook and timeline ready and use lots of maps. Locate Egypt on your globe and mark it on your map.

    J ust as life arose from the waters of the primeval sea, so the waters of the Nile gave birth to the pharaonic kingdom. A gift to the people of Egypt, the longest river in the world flows north from the heart of Africa to the Mediterranean Sea. Its flood plain was an extensive oasis, a magnet for life human, plant and animal. Humans were drawn there because they could grow crops and settle into permanent villages. The annual flooding of the Nile deposited nutrient rich silt on the land, creating all the ingredients needed to support life and the growth of a great civilization. B ounded on the south, east and west by a impenetrable desert, and on the north by the sea, ancient Egypt was protected from outside influences, which allowed it to evolve in its own unique way.

This website is a collection of photos and text from a 10 day journey in Israel. I
arrived at Ben Gurion Airport in early March of 1999. I rented a car and found the
road. Road signs were in English, Hebrew, and Arabic. Many people spoke a little
English. Spring time in Israel was much greener than the late summer, the photos
reflected some of this. There were inexpensive hotels and restaurants for those who were skillful in finding bargains. There were exclusive areas with more amenities and privileges for those who chose to afford them.

    Nile River and the Desert I n ancient times, the Egyptians called the desert the "red land", distinguishing it from the flood plain around the Nile River, called the "black land". These colours reflect the fact that the desert sands have a reddish hue and the land around the Nile turned black when the annual flood waters receded. T he desert and the Nile River emerged millions of years ago when the ancient sea that covered most of Europe and northern Africa (45 million years ago) shifted, forming the Mediterranean Sea basin. This happened when the earth’s plates moved, creating the Himalayas and the Alps. Over thousands of years, the Nile River evolved into its present shape, surrounded by the Eastern and Western deserts. T he Upper Nile is divided into three tributaries: the White Nile, the Blue Nile and the Atbara River. The White Nile flows from Lake Victoria, Lake Edward and Lake George, and the Blue Nile originates in the Ethiopian mountains. The Atbara River flows from the Ethiopian highlands and meets the combined White Nile and Blue Nile just north of Khartoum. Before the river enters the Mediterranean Sea, it divides into four smaller tributaries in the delta region. T he northern region of Egypt is bounded by two deserts, the mountainous Eastern, or Arabian, Desert and the sandy Western, or Libyan, Desert. Nomadic tribes continue to roam these desert regions as they have done for centuries, stopping at oases to replenish their water supplies.

Aspects of Life in Ancient Egypt
One of the most astonishing facts about Egypt is how little everyday life changed over the millennia. The rhythm of Egyptian life was the rhythm of the Nile until a few years ago, when the Aswan dam was erected. Even today one can find the ancient shadoof, oxen pulling ploughs and houses made of mud bricks.
The gods are gone, so are the pharaohs, the language and the writing. The cities look European in a ramshackle sort of way, transportation is partly 20th century, there's some industry, and radio and television are everywhere. But villages in the farther off corners of the country must still look very much like those of thousands of years ago.
Concerning these pages
I mostly chose topics not widely dealt with on the web. For the time being I do not include anything about pyramids or royal tombs for instance, as plenty of material can be found on these subjects.
Descriptions generally refer to the period of the New Kingdom.

Poor excavation makes these masseboth difficult to date, but most archaeologists believe they are from about 1500 B.C., in the heyday of the Canaanites. The stones may have represented a treaty alliance (cf. Ex 24) or have been a cult center (cf. Lev 26). Why BiblePlaces.com?
