A pyramid is a massive structure with a rectangular base and four triangular sides. Mummification is the process of embalming and drying corpses to prevent them from decaying. Hieroglyphics is a more flexible way of writing for the Egyptians. Papyrus is a tall reed that grows in the Nile delta.
Main Idea- 3. Living in a desert benefited the Egyptians because they would have a large space to grow there crops. When the Nile flooded, it would water the plants and leave silt which was good for planting. 4. The Egyptians viewed the Pharaoh as a God. 5. Egyptians mummified biddies so they wouldn't decay and would make a ceremony for them.
