People living at The Nile River
 Most of the Ancient Egyptians lived near the Nile River as it provided water, food, transportaion and excellent soil for growing crops.

Ancient Egyptians couldn't probably survive without The Nile River since there is little rainfall in Egypt. The floods were the only source of moisture to sustain their crops. Every year in the Etiopian highlands, heavy summer rain sent a torrent of water that will overflow the banks of The Nile River. When floods went down, it left a thick rich mud called silt. It is excellent soil to plant seeds in after it had been ploughed. The Ancient Egyptians could grow crops only in the mud the Nile River left behind. So all the Ancient Egyptians had their fields along the Nile River.
