Egyptians

The ancient Egyptians built their towns and cities along ariver called the Nile.

Egypt is a hot and dry country in north Africa, but ancient Egyptians lived affluend life.
    The Nile flooded every year. This made the soil good for growing plants. When the land dried up, plants grew in the sun. Egyptian farmers grew fruit, vegetables and other plants on the banks of the Nile. Some people had a pool in their garden where they kept fish to eat.
