Each year the river flooded, leaving rich soil for farmers to grow edible plants, while also providing needed water. The text describes farming methods such as digging soil by hand with hoes, sowing seeds, and using animals to press seeds into the ground, with plowing often pulled by oxen. It connects the landscape—desert surroundings and the Nile’s flow to the Mediterranean—to the rise of civilization.","Ancient Egypt  \nEnglish  \nAncient Egypt  \nTable of Contents  \nChapter 1 The Nile River. 2  \nChapter 2 Pharaohs and Everyday People . 5 Chapter 3 Pyramids and Mummies. 8 Chapter 4 Gods and Goddesses . 13 Chapter 5 Egyptian Writing. 16  \nChapter 6 Tutankhamen. 19  \nChapter 7 Hatshepsut. 23  \n1  \n\n| CHAPTER 1\u003Cbr>The Nile River\u003Cbr>Long, long ago in ancient Egypt, the Nile River rose up above its banks and flooded the land. 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. | 2\u003Cbr> |\n| --- | --- |\n\n\n| To 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\u003Cbr>ground so that they would grow. |  |\n| --- | --- |\n|  | 3 |\n\n\n| Sometimes farmers used a plow instead of a hoe to dig up the soil.\u003Cbr>Often an ox pulled the plow along. |  |\n| --- | --- |\n|  | 4 |\n\n\n| Ancient 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 . |  |\n| --- | --- |\n|  | 5 |\n\n\n| The Nile River is in northern Africa.\u003Cbr>It is more than six thousand kilometers long.\u003Cbr>The Nile flows north into the Mediterranean Sea. |  |\n| --- | --- |\n|  | 6 |\n\n\n|  | Chapter 2\u003Cbr>Pharaohsand Everyday People\u003Cbr>Egyptians called their rulers kings, queens, or pharaohs.

It may also have protected their eyes from the sun—and kept away little flies. | 8 |\n| --- | --- |\n\n\n| \u003Cbr>Egyptian workers made bricks from mud and straw. The bricks were used for building. The bricks were dried in the hot sun until they were hard and strong.\u003Cbr>Egyptians traveled by boat on the Nile River. The boats were also used to carry food from one part of the kingdom to another. | 9 |\n| --- | --- |","cbCaigQ4LFZK816G","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigQ4LFZK816G","pdf",4556579,1,27,"English","en",105,"# Chapter 1 The Nile River\n## Annual flooding and fertile soil\n## Planting and farming tools\n## The Nile’s geography and flow","[{\"question\":\"Why did the Nile River flooding matter to ancient Egyptian farmers?\",\"answer\":\"The Nile flooded each year and left rich soil behind.
