Science Needed to predict floods Astronomers noticed the Nile would rise about the same time Sirius would appear Sirius = the Dog Star Worked out the average time between appearances of Sirius  led to 365 day calendar Math Could add, subtract, multiply, divide Knew geometry Math helped Egyptians create the pyramids

Doctors = specially trained priests Knew a lot about the body because of mummification process Understood herbalism Greeks and Romans used Egyptian medicinal practices
