Evidence of much humanity's early technological advancement has been found in ancient Egyptian civilization. Beginning about 5000 B.C. the Nile River Valley in northeast Africa provided the agricultural conditions for many permanent settlements that continued to expand. With the support and influence of the rulers and religious leaders, cultural advancment took place in art, music, entertainment, technology, and science.

The ancient Egyptians are considered one of the most advanced of the early civilizations. Evidence of their contributions to teh world can be seen in the magnificent statues of their gods, in poetry and jewelry, in teh ruins of their colossal pyramids and tombs, within their written language known as hieroglyphics, and in their perfections of the mummification process.
