History of Egypt
The
history of
Egypt
has been long and rich, due to the flow of the
Nile
river, with its
fertile banks
and
delta
. Its rich history also comes from its native inhabitants and outside influence. Much of Egypt's ancient history was a mystery until the secrets of ancient
Egyptian hieroglyphs
were deciphered with the discovery and help of the
Rosetta Stone
. The
Great Pyramid of Giza
is the only one of the
Seven Wonders of the Ancient World
still standing. The
Lighthouse of Alexandria
, one of the other Seven Wonders, is gone. The
Library of Alexandria
was the only one of its kind for centuries.
