It describes farming practices such as digging soil, planting seeds, and using animals like cows to press seeds into the ground, as well as plowing with an ox. The chapter also frames ancient Egypt geographically as a civilization along the Nile, surrounded by the Sahara Desert and recognized as the gift of the Nile.","Ancient Egypt  \nEnglish  \nAncient Egypt  \nImages by Core Knowledge Foundation, © 2019 Core Knowledge Foundation.

This happened each year. Farmers used the rich soil the river left behind to grow plants that could be eaten as food. The Nile River also brought water to the plants that grew.  \nTo grow plants, Egyptian farmers first dug up the soil. Sometimes they used a hoe for digging. Then they dropped seeds into the ground. Animals such as cows stepped on the seeds and pushed them into the ground so that they would grow.  \nSometimes farmers used a plow instead of a hoe to dig up the soil. Often an ox pulled the plow along.  \nAncient Egypt was a civilization on the continent of Africa. The land of ancient Egypt lay along the Nile River. All around this land was a desert, called the Sahara Desert. Ancient Egypt became known as the gift of the Nile.  \nThe Nile River is in northern Africa. It is more than six thousand kilometers long. The Nile flows north into the Mediterranean Sea.  \nCHAPTER  \n2  \nPharaohs and Everyday People  \nEgyptians called their rulers kings, queens, or pharaohs. Whatever their title, they were the most important people in ancient Egypt. They made the laws and were in charge of the army. This is a statue, or stone carving, of a pharaoh.","cbCaik31zaBtDBwl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik31zaBtDBwl","pdf",7041585,1,20,"English","en",105,"# Table of Contents\n## Chapter 1 The Nile River\n## Chapter 2 Pharaohs and Everyday People\n## Chapter 3 Pyramids and Mummies\n## Chapter 4 Gods and Goddesses\n## Chapter 5 Egyptian Writing\n## Chapter 6 Tutankhamen\n## Chapter 7 Hatshepsut","[{\"question\":\"How did the Nile River help farmers in ancient Egypt?\",\"answer\":\"The Nile flooded each year, leaving rich soil behind and bringing water to growing plants, making farming possible.\"},{\"question\":\"What farming steps did Egyptian farmers follow to grow plants?\",\"answer\":\"Farmers dug up the soil, planted seeds, and used animals like cows to step on the seeds so they would grow.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is ancient Egypt often called the “gift of the Nile”?\",\"answer\":\"Because the civilization developed along the Nile River, and the river’s water and fertile land supported the people who lived there.\"}]",1784273243,31,{"code":4,"msg":30,"data":31},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":32,"title":13,"keywords":33,"description":14,"schema_data":34,"social_meta":84,"head_meta":86,"extra_data":88,"updated_unix":27},"ancient-egypt-chapter-1-the-nile-river","",{"@graph":35,"@context":83},[36,52,66],{"@type":37,"itemListElement":38},"BreadcrumbList",[39,43,46,49],{"item":40,"name":41,"@type":42,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":44,"name":45,"@type":42,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",{"item":47,"name":12,"@type":42,"position":48},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/",3,{"item":50,"name":13,"@type":42,"position":51},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/ancient-egypt-chapter-1-the-nile-river/88380/",4,{"url":50,"name":13,"@type":53,"author":54,"headline":13,"publisher":56,"fileFormat":59,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":60,"datePublished":60,"encodingFormat":59,"isAccessibleForFree":61,"interactionStatistic":62},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":55},"Person",{"url":40,"name":57,"@type":58},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-17",true,{"@type":63,"interactionType":64,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":65},"ViewAction",{"@type":67,"mainEntity":68},"FAQPage",[69,75,79],{"name":70,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":72},"How did the Nile River help farmers in ancient Egypt?","Question",{"text":73,"@type":74},"The Nile flooded each year, leaving rich soil behind and bringing water to growing plants, making farming possible.","Answer",{"name":76,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":77},"What farming steps did Egyptian farmers follow to grow plants?",{"text":78,"@type":74},"Farmers dug up the soil, planted seeds, and used animals like cows to step on the seeds so they would grow.",{"name":80,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":81},"Why is ancient Egypt often called the “gift of the Nile”?",{"text":82,"@type":74},"Because the civilization developed along the Nile River, and the river’s water and fertile land supported the people who lived there.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":50,"og:type":85,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":57,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":87,"canonical":50},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":90},[91,95,98,102,107,112,117,122,126,129,133],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":92,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":96,"slug":97},80,"literature",{"id":51,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":99,"show_sort_weight":100,"slug":101},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":103,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":108,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":109,"show_sort_weight":110,"slug":111},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":113,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":114,"show_sort_weight":115,"slug":116},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":118,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":119,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":123,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":21,"slug":125},9,"Religion & Spirituality","religion-spirituality",{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":127,"show_sort_weight":21,"slug":128},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":130,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":131,"show_sort_weight":130,"slug":132},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":134,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":135,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":136},19,"General","general"]
