Cyber Day 1

This is our first day of cyber school. I am recapping on what we have learned so far in west civ. I think that cyber day is a good idea but not when it's a state emergency and we don't need to make up this day. 

The social hierarchy in ancient Egypt goes from slaves/servants, farmers, artisans, merchants, scribes, soldiers, priests, nobles, than pharaohs. Slaves and servants are at the bottom of the hierarchy. They work for the "government' building pyramids, or they'll work for wealth home owners with cooks, cleaning, and child care. Farmers grow crops like wheat and barley to supply for the Egyptians. Artisans sculpt people and paint important scenes in life. Merchants work in stores and sell good. Scribes kept records, wrote stories, and wrote medical treatments. soldiers fought for Egypt under the Pharaoh. Priests and nobles were the government and were known as the "white kilt class". The Pharaoh is the ruler of everyone and everything and is brought up as a god. 

The Nile river is very important the the Egyptians. The Nile river is where they get there water supply and fertile soil for crop growing. Every July it floods and every October it leaves rich soil for farming. The Nile river gives them everything they need to live. They also use it for transportation of boats for trade and relocating.
