Top 10 Most Influential Inventions from Egypt

When we think of Egypt, pyramids, mummies, pharaohs, and sphinxes are some of the things that come up to our mind. Egypt consists of a rich history tracing all the way back to over 10,000 BCE - its Dynastic Period starting at 3,150 BCE with the rise of Ancient Egyptian civilization. What made Egyptian civilization so successful is that it came from the familiarization of the Nile River and its predictable conditions, thus giving an abundance of crops due to its annual flooding and rich fertile soil. The Old Kingdom (or also known as the Age of the Pyramids) also marked a significant milestone to both architecture, cultural, and technology advances that changed the rest of Egyptian history. Along with Mesopotamia, it's no doubt that Egypt contributed a vast collection of technology and inventions - some of that we use today. From hieroglyphics to mathematics, this list presents the top 10 most influential inventions from Egypt.
