* The way ancient Egypt affected the modern: After all these years of welfare and prosperity, The ancient Egyptians left us the remains of their great civilization. They left us a lot of monuments that show clearly their struggle to make their huge civilization. These monuments tell us how the ancient Egyptians turned the land of Egypt from yellow sand to green fields. The pyramids, as a pharahonic monument, are very important to Egypt, nowadays. They are one of the seven wonders and they are well known all over the world. They are a symbol of Egypt everywhere. Beside the pyramids, there are also many great monuments such as the temples and the tombs in Luxor and Aswan. Those cities are full of tombs in the valley of kings and the valley of queens. Everyday, we learn a new lesson from these monuments to know how to make our future with our hands. These monuments also teach us that by will and hard work everything will be possible. The ancient Egyptians also left us many traditions and customs. . For example, in our world now there are many celebrations that have a pharahonic origin like the New Year celebration. The ancient Egyptians used to celebrate the New Year in great festivals like we do, nowadays. These customs and traditions gave us a lot of useful values like love and peace. These traditions were carved into the Egyptian character because of many reasons. One of these reasons is the geographical location. The location of Egypt in the meeting point of Asia, Africa and Europe made the Egyptians peaceful because from this location they could have invaded the entire ancient world, but they didn’t do so because of their character. We have known most of these traditions and customs from the writings and the papyrus that where found in their tombs and temples.
In our world today, we feel that we need to be like the great pharaohs. We should learn something from their history that was full of wonderful lessons. We feel very proud of our past. We are proud of our ancestors and their wonderful civilization. When we remember our, we feel some kind of strange feelings. We feel that we were one day a part of a great civilization and that we have the responsibility to rebuild that great history and make it once again. We really miss that great history. Everyone wishes he could have taken part in writing this great history. We know that the ancient Egyptians built their huge civilization with their own hands, their strange ability to work hard no matter what the stumblings were and their strong will, which made them the leader of all the ancient civilized world. So, we are all trying to work hard to try to achieve just a part from their civilization. We hope one day to show the world how great we were. We hope that Egypt will cope with the world and join the party in order to renew the victories of the past. |
