2/20/15 Cyber day assignment

The Egyptians have made many inventions. Part of being a great civilization was having technology. Here are some of the inventions in order from importance. I think the most important technology development was Egyptian medicine. They were the first to use magic and medicine men. The Egyptians had a document and talked about the organs. They did bisectimies and put all the body organs in jars, where they also preserved spices. Doing work like that they learned alot about the human body. Another Egyptian break through was the Egyptian Astronomy. The Egyptians developed a 365 day calendar. The calendar had the days divided into 12 months with around 30 days. The Egyptians also invented stone circles and sun dails that showed that they knew about time. The sundail was used to make days. The Egyptians also were very into astronomy. Many of their buildings were aligned with stars and constellations. The Pyramids were located to reflect constellations and monuments were to reflect the cardinal directions and important times of the year. The Egyptians also invented the bed. The first bed was a shallow chest with bedding placed over top and to try to make it soft consisted with ropes stretched across a wooden frame. In their bed they slept and entertained socially and ate.
