The civilization that I thought as most interesting to learn about was the ancient Egyptians . They use their resources to create things that are so beautiful such as their art pieces. They take little amounts of things and create things that are so useful. Like paper if Egyptians made paper they would take woven mat of reeds and pound them together until they made a thin stiff sheet. When they struggled to find food they figured out that using resources( like the Nile) could provide plenty to eat. When the Egyptians noticed that the Nile flooded about the same time every year they saw that it made a very rich layer of soil called silt. This soil was a good place you could grow your crops. Farmers began digging canals and bringing the fresh water to their crops. This provided fresh water for irrigation. After seeing that the Niles floods were very important the Egyptians focused on growing their crops. That led them to giving up growing crops and starting other things thats how we have the calendar and tools today and that is why Egyptians are my favorite civilization.

My Fave Civilization
My favorite civilization was ancient Egypt. Ancient Egypt has such a fascinating culture, it has amazing art, beautiful architecture, and their religion is extremely fascinating. I love the fact that even though the ancient Egyptians only had very basic technology they still managed to build these beautiful structures (tombs in particular) and build traps to defend them. Their art was also very amazing the fact that people back then could memorize what all of the different hieroglyphics meant and how to write them is astonishing. But my absolute favorite part of ancient Egypt is their religion. I love ancient Egyptian religion so much, my favorite Egyptian god is Anubis the fact that he watched over the dead is so cool. What's your favorite ancient Egyptian god/goddess?

ancient egypt
Ancient Egypt was very dry. The civilization had to form along the Nile River because it was a source of water and food. Everywhere else there was sand. This kept them safe from invaders because no one could cross the desert and get to them. The ancient Egyptians made art. They also made things like copper tools, clothes, pots and jars. Another very important part of ancient Egypt civilization was their hieroglyphics. Hieroglyphics are what they wrote with. They were pictures instead of letters. They wrote on papyrus.
Ancient Egypt
The ancient Egypt civilization formed all along the river of the Nile. The river provided everything; it gave food, water for growing crops, and transportation. Once the civilization was formed, they developed cool things like copper tools and pots and jars for storage and food. They also developed methods of communication, the main one being hieroglyphics. A few years back, I had memorized the alphabet in hieroglyphics instead of doing classwork. This was fine because classwork in elementary school doesn't matter all that much. Hieroglyphics is a writing system for communication using symbols to represent phrases or characters. When studying hieroglyphics, I also learned about a common weapon they used called the Khopesh. I have found the civilization of ancient Egypt interesting ever since the 2nd grade.
Click-bait about civilization
The civilization that I read about and that I really liked so much was the Indus Valley. I think they are the best civilization because they are so peaceful and I say that because they built an entire city from there hands and tools to stay away from dangers. They also never tried to fight for something or never tried to go to war with any other civilizations. The Indus Valley traded very fairly when they traded and they also had a good amount of food to keep there stomachs full. The king of the Indus Valley is very loyal and his name is Mohenjo-Daro. Another cool thing about them and why they are the best civilization is that they never had any weapons on their base. The cool thing was that they were so safe, they never thought about having weapons in their base or whatever you call it.

Indus Valley Civilization
My favorite civilization to learn about was the Indus Valley Civilization because it is originated from where I’m from. This civilization was based in areas around South Asians, and it was also one of the oldest civilizations ever. I was also interested in the various technologies that they had during this time. These included a new measurement and maths system, they were also great at building docks and metallurgy. They were also very involved in trading around this time, and did it a lot with neighboring nations/empires.

THE BEST CIVILIZATION!
I am writing about what my favorite civilization. What I think is the best civilization is the Indus Valley people. Why I think that is because they were very clean and they did not have dirt or grime in their streets. They also had plumbing in each and every house because then they would not get infected from the feces. I also liked that they did not have wars. So they were all safe. That is why I think that they are the best.
