Physical Features The Giza Pyramids The Giza Pyramids were built in 2,550 B.C. Some Egyptologists believe that it only took 10 years to build the ramp that goes from the Nile Valley floor to the pyramid itself, then 20 more years to actually build the pyramid. About two million blocks of stone were used to build Khufu's pyramid. Each weighed 2.5 tons, and the heaviest blocks, used on the top of the pyramid, were an estimated 4 to 6 tons.

Geographic Factors and Natural Resources Nile river (6,690 km), Sahara desert (8,600,000 km2), Arabian desert (2,330,000 km2), Sinai Peninsula, Lake Nasser, Qa Adequate Water supply. Population distribution or density is affected very much by the presence or absence of water in any region. Everything-man, plant or animal life-lives on water and, as' such, adequate supplies of water are necessary for different occupations. If water is available in deserts, then deserts soils can support a higher density of population. In the Nile Valley of Egypt, a large number of people are found who are engaged in the cultivation of superior quality cotton and many other crops. In India, the Rajasthan Canal Project is being developed to supply water to dry areas of Rajasthan. But unfortunately, water resources are very much limited in deserts and they are easily exhausted due to scarcity of water. Besides, due to relief features, all deserts lands are not suitable for irrigation purposes ttara Depression, Gebel Katherina (2,637 m)
