Chapter 4 Section 2- The Old Kingdom Ancient Egypt Chapter 4 Section 2- The Old Kingdom

The Old Kingdom The Big Idea Egyptian government and religion were closely connected during the Old Kingdom. Main Ideas In early Egyptian society, pharaohs ruled as gods and were at the top of the social structure. Religion shaped Egyptian life. The pyramids of Egypt were built as tombs for the pharaohs.

Main Idea 1: In early Egyptian society, pharaohs ruled as gods and were at the top of the social structure. The Old Kingdom was a period in which the Egyptians developed a system based on the belief that the pharaoh was both a king and a god. As the population grew, social classes appeared. Egypt began to trade goods with its neighbors.

Egyptian Trade, c. 1400 BC

Egyptian Society Social classes Pharaohs ruled Egypt as gods. Many nobles, or people from rich and powerful families, were officials and priests who helped run the government. Scribes and craftspeople wrote and produced goods. Farmers, servants, and slaves made up most of Egyptian society.

Main Idea 2: Religion shaped Egyptian life. The Egyptians had gods for nearly everything, including the sun, the sky, and the earth. These gods would often mix human and animal forms. Egyptian religion focused on the afterlife, or life after death. They believed that when a person died, his or her ka left the body and became a spirit. They developed embalming to preserve bodies and keep the link between the body and the spirit. The specially treated bodies wrapped in cloth were called mummies.

Main Idea 3: The pyramids of Egypt were built as tombs for the pharaohs. Pyramids are huge stone tombs with four triangular sides that meet in a point on the top. Historians are unsure how they were built. Pyramids displayed amazing engineering, or the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes. The size and shape of the pyramids showed the importance of pharaohs. They were the people’s link to the gods, so the Egyptians wanted their spirits to be happy.
