Egyptian Inventions and Contributions Ancient Egypt

Papyrus 1st use of Papyrus (4000 B.C.E) The raw material of Papyrus comes from a plant that grew along the banks of the Nile River. Papyrus was used to make paper, rope, baskets and to manufacture boats.

Papyrus

Pyramid Large Triangular tombs where important people (Pharaohs) were buried.

Embalming The Egyptians were the first to embalm their dead. Embalming was for the purpose of preserving the body so that the soul could return to it after the completion of the “Circle of Necessity”.

Embalming Was more sanitary, people working with the dead did not get sick. It saved lives.

Ink Egyptians mixed soot with vegetable gum and bee’s wax. It was AMAZING ink! When looking at Egyptian text written centuries ago- the writing is still clear and legible.

365 Day Calendar A solar system established calendar, based on 12 months of 30 days each with 5 extra days. The Egyptians also devised the Leap Year calendar of adding an extra day every 4th year circa 238 B.C.E.
