The great Ancient Egyptian civilization arose morre than 5,000 years ago among farmers living on the banks of the River Nile.It laster for 3,000 years longer than any other civilization on Earth.What is really remarkable is that throughout this long history, the way of life and the art and sculpture of Ancient Egypt remained largely unchanged.

The King of Egypt was called the "pharaoh",a word that originally meant
"great house",or "palace",but came to describe the man who lived there.
He was through to be a living god and wore a ritual false beard as a symbol of royalty.
He also wore a red crown and a white crown symbolizing the union of Upper Egypt
(the river valley) with Lower Egypt (the Nile delta)
