 | | Ancient Egypt was a civilization located in Africa, along the upper Nile, reaching from the Nile Delta in the north to as far south as Jebel Barkal at the Fourth Cataract of the Nile at the time of its greatest extension (15th century BC). |
 | | It lasted for three millennia, from around 3000 BC to 30 BC, arguably ending when the Roman Empire conquered Egypt. |
 | | By 3300 BC, just before the first Egyptian dynasty, Egypt was divided into two kingdoms, known as Upper Egypt (Ancient Egyptian: Ta Shemau) and Lower Egypt (Ancient Egyptian: Ta Mehu) [Adkins, L. and Adkins, R. The Little Book of Egyptian Hieroglyphics, p155.] |
