My 2nd essay:


The Nile River is very important to the Egyptians because it was used for transportation, Irrigation, bathing, and water to drink. Every July it floods. Every October it leaves behind rich soil. The delta is getting a broad, marshy triangular area of fertile silt. Managing the river required technological breakthrough in irrigation. In my first 2nd paragraph I’m going to explain how transportation of the Nile and Irrigation were important. In my 3rd paragraph I’m going to talk about how bathing and water to drink from the Nile is important.

 

The Nile was good for transportation for the Egyptians because once they had sailboats they could travel longer distances along the Nile. They could fish and they could get to places quicker. It helped for irrigation because it would flood or they could go get water from the Nile to water the plants and the food. So there was good farming land and the crops grew better because of the rich, and nice soil.

 

 

The Nile was good for bathing because if you were dirty you could go take a bath. If you were hot you could go take a nice bath. You could even give your animals that you were rising like you horse or pigs, etc. The water was good for drinking because you could go get water for yourself to drink or your family to drink. You could also use the water for your animals to drink.
