Question

Those who support the alien theory believe that the ancient Egyptians were very primitive. What evidence about the ancient Egyptians suggests that claim is inaccurate? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer:

The ancient Egyptians were far from primitive. They were some of the best inventors of their time, creating technology that surpassed that of other civilizations during this time period.

Explanation:

• Around 3000 BC, Egyptians discovered how they could make bronze, which was far more durable than other metals during that time.  This innovation started the Bronze age.

• Ancient Egyptians were among the first groups of people to write and to keep records.
• The ancient Egyptians turned the Cyperus papyrus plant into sheets which could be rolled into scrolls. They basically created the first paper.
• To write on the newly invented paper, they created ink made for writing.
• The Egyptians devised a highly accurate solar calendar by recording the yearly reappearance of the star Sirius (the Dog Star) in the eastern sky.
