Info
Just landing in Egypt had us giddy with anticipation. It was a destination that we always thought we ‘probably should visit’ … now that we were here, we couldn’t wait to see the storied antiquities we had read so much about.
Egypt is known as “The Cradle of Civilization” and has one of the longest histories of any country. Human remains have been found from around 18,000 BC. Egypt’s cultural heritage can be traced back to the 6th–4th millennia BC. Love this graphic on the various world civilizations.
