Ask Amenophis:

	Is the Nile the largest river in the world?
	What did the Egyptians use instead of pillows?
	What did Egyptians drink?

		The height of the Nile's yearly flood was so important that the Egyptians carved a measuring stick, called the "Nilometer", into its banks and recorded the level of the flood for thousands of years. Every farmer worked on Pharaoh's building projects for part of every year. There were no slaves in Egypt. All Egyptians were free, though Pharaoh owned all the major industries in the country. more
