Ancient Egyptians ranged from extremely poor serfs and slaves to incredible wealthy royalty like Pharaohs; kings and queens.
This documentary is an overview of the history of most Egyptians. This groups is mainly made up of farmers and farm workers.
We first look at social hierarchy. There's a common misconception that Egyptians were divided by their occupations. For example, a pyramid might be ordered: Pharaoh, Government Officials (Vizier/Priests/Nobles), Soldiers, Scribes, Merchants, Artisans, Craftsmen, Farmers, Construction Workers, Serfs, Slaves.
Next we look at why the Nile river was so essential to Egypt's prosperity.
Most farmers lived by the Nile river and used it daily so it was extremely important.
The work life of farmers is fascinating, so we spend a decent chunk of time seeing how farming worked in ancient Egypt. See the tools and process Egyptians used to farm and grow their crops.
After this we walk through a reconstructed ancient Egyptian house. You'll see all of the rooms and furniture that was typical in a home at the time. Their pets were also important, so dogs and cats are briefly mentioned.
Next we look at the ancient Egyptian diet. The staples were beer and bread. Wheat derived products were the basis of all meals. See what an Egyptian would eat from day to day in a full day of eating.
Following the Egyptian menu, we take a look a what happens when an Egyptian dies. Life expectancies and causes of death are not a fun subject, but the process of death was a massive part of ancient Egyptian culture.
On a lighter note, we finish off with family and free time. Much of life was spent on a farm working, but family was always the main focus of an Egyptian. What kids did in their spare time isn't really too different to what kids did today.
In summary, this is a complete look at what daily life of an Egyptian was really like.

This is a brilliant channel. I'm an Australian mum who is homeschooling my Year 7 son during the covid19 lockdown. He's studying Ancient Eygypt and this video has been a great help for him. I hope this channel grows.

Where I live, world history class is very disorganized, like they jump from topic to topic to topic, and the crazy thing is, a world history teacher told me that you don’t learn about Ancient Rome, Ancient Greece, or Ancient Egypt! They do however learn about Ancient Mesoamerica, and the Incas which is also pretty cool! Your child is lucky to learn about Ancient Egypt in school!

ALL the students were zoned out or asleep. I sat in the back, alert, sitting up and super interested when my teacher droned on about Mesopotamia, Tigres and Euphrates, etc.

I. M. That’s really cool! I always had an interest in history, ever since I was young. In 8th grade, we learned about American History mostly in Social studies class.

A very nicely done video indeed! Just two critical comments if I may: (1) There are camels shown in one scene near the beginning of the video. The problem is that there were no camels in Ancient Egypt. The Egyptians only had donkeys and horses, but no camels. They were introduced to North Africa after the fall of Ancient Egypt to other powers such as the Greeks and Romans. (2) A number of the lower-class men shown in the video are wearing head wrappings and body garb much like Arabs have worn over the centuries. The video rarely shows Ancient Egyptians sporting the typical hairstyles and linen blouses and skirts we typically see in all their artwork.

[@youtube__handle]

[@drearydancer]

The kind of beer they had was very weak. They drank for thirst, not to get a buzz. But yeah, you're right. lol

[@jazzycat8867]

The beer they drank contained less than 2% alcohol and they didn’t drink to get drunk the did so to make use of the barley

[@angr3819]

It was very weak and watery. Only just enough alcohol to ensure it was sterilised. Same throughout much of the world. It was the most certain way of making sure water was drinkable and would not make people ill or kill them. Of course beer could be a made more strong and abused but by and large on a daily basis it was extremely weak.

[@yueeeeeeee]

Why you left this Channel? Was so amazing

[@thepeoplewhofearfire1450]

This is a nice documentary, the only mistake is the narrator's repeated insistence of Egyptians lack of currency which is entirely False. Egyptians used a measurement of weight in gold & silver as currency. You can't have an established civilization with a merchant class & no formal & centralized structural system of coinage. Barter trade doesn't work in city states let alone a unified empire like Egypt. This a historical fact attested by egyptologists & anthropologists.

[@Wolffjord]

It's not completely wrong to say that the (pre Tolemaic) Egyptian economy was based on barter, on the one hand because there was no currency (i.e. combining the functions of unit of account, means of payment and store of value), and on the other hand because certain painted scenes showed goods being exchanged in markets. However writings has explicit references to units of accounting (called "shat"), referenced with text as "I paid 10 shats for a cloth". We do not know what "shat" was or how much it actually valued. In any case it was not a currency as we intend it. It was used for accounting and made payment of taxes, and exchange of goods easier.

Great video - I love ancient history. If you want to see the flooding of the Nile, check out the mosaic of the Nile at Palestrina in the Temple of Fortuna. The detail is fascinating. I thought this flooding lasted a week or two but it turns out it lasted many months from June to October regularly and predictably. There was no large scale farming at this time of year but there was a lot of fishing and water related activities. The flooded Nile was incredibly rich in fish, birds and all kinds of wild life. By October the waters had receded to a manageable level and the large scale wheat farming started. The yield of wheat was so prolific that free farmers could do very well indeed, especially since slaves did a lot of the work. Herodotus describes the annual flooding of the Nile and even mentions details like how people slept on platforms as high as possible to avoid the mosquitoes that the flooding produced.

I travelled Egypt several years ago and really not much had changed for local farmers. Outside of the the major cities, life is still extremely dependent up on the river for farming, and people still live simple lives.

MAYBE for local farmers, but i've visited Egypt last year and that place has been rundown by the invader's descendants. The Nile River is so filthy it's borderline hazardous to drink from (except in Upper Egypt near Aswan where in indigenous Nubians take care of the river). The streets of Cairo is laden with garbage, and sky was almost always grey and gloomy from pollution (rarely was it ever blue).

I'm in college right now and History is honestly without a doubt my single favorite subject since kindergarten. The things we have to research/learn about are things I watched Animation channels like History oversimplified on anyways.
