The concept of civilization

Civilization is all produced by the human mind of arts, sciences, literature, philosophy and legislation, and the ability to benefit from this outcome. Historians divide the history of humanity into eras. There are prehistoric times and historical ages.
The life of Egyptians in the era of prehistory and the concept of the age

Prehistoric Egyptian history is a long age - estimated by historians hundreds of thousands of years - precedes the first human knowledge of writing. The man of that era did not record his ideas or his works in any way, but left silent traces of tools and weaponry and remnants of houses and cemeteries .. and others. Writing is therefore the boundary between the prehistoric era and the historical era. Historical epochs begin with the invention of man to write, and start recording the activity, and the events. The events of history are measured in years and centuries, and the century is equal to 100 years. It is noted that the calculation of the years before the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ is moving towards a decline in the number of years.
Prehistoric sections

The pre-family era is divided into: the old stone age, the modern stone age and the era of mineral use. The stone ages were named by this name for the manufacture of man most of his tools of stone.

The life of the Egyptian man in the old stone age




The human life in Egypt did not start on the banks of the Nile, but on the mountains and plateaus where the harsh natural conditions controlled man, and his means of life were limited and primitive. The Egyptian man lived an unstable life, moving from one place to another in search of food, cave dwellers, hunting animals and birds, and counting on the collection of seeds and fruits from plants and trees.


This man made his stone tools, such as the knife, saw, and the ark, and was large and coarse. At the end of this ancient stone age, man knew the fire by rubbing hard stones together. The discovery of fire helped to develop the life of the ancient Egyptian. He used it in cooking and lighting, the removal of predators, and the hunting of animals.

The Life of the Egyptian Man in the Modern Stone Age


After the rains, drought and vegetation disappeared in the late Quarantine, people were forced to leave the plateau and resort to the Nile Valley in search of water. In this new environment, man was brought to agriculture. He produced grains such as wheat and barley. He nursed and nursed the animals, such as cattle, goats and sheep, and lived a life of stability, order and construction instead of life.

 Ancient Egyptian man consecrated animals.
Human habitation was built in mud and wood. Local communities appeared in the form of small villages, and man tended to bury his dead in tombs. In this age, the machinery and tools industry grew, characterized by precision and small size, and also pottery.

 Thus, the modern stone age is characterized by several advantages: transformation to agriculture and stability, animal rehabilitation, the upgrading of the manufacture of tools and weapons, the construction of houses and tombs, and finally the pottery industry.
The life of the Egyptian man in the era of the use of minerals

 The era of the use of minerals is the era that follows the modern stone age, and ends with the beginning of the age of the families in ancient Egypt. In this era, the ancient Egyptians knew metals, such as copper, bronze and gold. These metals made their tools, machines and jewelry. Copper was the most widespread mineral and the most important of its mines in the Sinai Peninsula.

 Also in this age, the textile, wood, and pottery industries were developed. The houses were built of milk instead of mud and wool, and were sprayed with papyrus mats and made pillows. The most important characteristic of this era is the emergence of certain acts of worship, such as the sanctification of man to some animals
