Agriculture in ancient Egypt
What was the shape of agricultural life in ancient Egypt
The ancient Egyptian knew agriculture long ago since ancient times as a means of obtaining his food
This is especially true after it settled on the banks of the Nile River and the cultivation stages began with plowing
Earth, by breaking up large clumps of silt on its surface
By ax and plow
.................
He who drags the oxen and raises two men for each plow, one of whom presses the handles of the plow
The second leads the bulls, and after preparing the field, the seeding process begins. In the scenes we see the "field scribe" standing in front of the piles designated for seed. If this is done, they are spread in the fields. Each carries his basket and spreads it in the fields, either by hanging it on his shoulder by a rope or carrying it on his hands
.....................
After the end of this process, the process of landing the grain on the ground begins, and it was carried out by sheep and pigs. After this stage, another stage begins, which is
He threshed the grains, then harvested the crop and tied it in bundles. After this process was completed, it began
The process of moving the crop to the place where you will study. This process is to collect the straw in a high pile by a toothed pitchfork, and then start atomizing the grains, which is an attempt to separate the hay and other materials
Far from love and often performed by women with slightly arched wood panels
Then the grains are sifted with a square sieve until they are finally cleared of impurities, and the last of the harvesting work is the appearance of two employees of the farm, one of whom works as a clerk for silos and the other to weigh piles of wheat before storing it in silos, which are conical buildings of clay. In its upper part, there is a small opening
Its lower part is a hole to take the wheat from it

There was also an employee in ancient Egypt who worked as a clerk for silos and another for weighing piles of wheat before storing it in silos, which are made of clay, conical buildings. In its upper part, there is a small opening
Its lower part is a hole to take the wheat from it

In addition to the grains that were grown in ancient Egypt, there were different types of vegetables (such as onions, cucumbers, and melons) and other types that the ancient Egyptians were keen to plant in the garden of their home and this was shown in the inscriptions of their tombs, which listed more than 100 types of trees
(Sycamore, dum, and figs) King Ramses III established in the city of Thebes extensive gardens that appeared in
Cemeteries of the New Kingdom. The Egyptian also knew cattle breeding, which appeared clearly in the scenes, and oxen were the most important and loved domestic animals of the ancient Egyptians
Scenes of animal husbandry in ancient Egypt appeared in many cemeteries, and we see an ox-herder with
His livestock crosses the water or while they eat, and some farmers milk the cows, and the shepherd has taken care of the food of the cattle and has worked on fattening his cattle by feeding them bread dough. Cattle were milked and livestock grazing in alfalfa cultivated fields in the country
