Top Ancient Egypt Flashcards

We’ve all seen movies with living mummies and artifacts from King Tut, but these don’t always give us a realistic understanding of ancient Egypt. The Egyptians had a complex and ancient culture long before most other modern nations existed. Did you know that they had their own name for the constellation we call the Big Dipper? They called it the Hippopotamus! Today, we make most of our bread and beer from wheat, but do you know what grain they used?

They used barley, which was the Egyptians most common crop. Today, we have many different kinds of wind instruments. Did you know that in the ancient Egyptian culture, the only wind instrument was the flute? If you didn’t know these facts, then you have a lot to learn about Egypt’s past!
