Abstract
Egyptian civilization dates back to the dawn of civilization and remnants exist
in a continuous 6000 year-old record.
The artistic genius engendered by Egyptian
civilization, the superb condition of many burial chambers, and the dry climate have
made it possible to reconstruct a history of agricultural technology.
Ancient Egypt is
shown to be the source of much of the agricultural technology of the Western world.
