History

Egypt is one of the places where civilization started in the Middle East. Traces of humans were found in Egypt around 700,000 years ago. Early humans traveled through Egypt and Canaanto to get to other places. Probably served as the bridges by which successive waves of humans: homo erectus**,** homo habilis, homo neanderthalensis and homo sapiens, evidently migrated out of Africa and into Mesopotamia and Europe. According to scientists the first pyramid ( The Step Pyramid of Djoser built around 2600 BC) was origanlly surrounded by a 34 ft tall wall which had 15 doors in it. Only one of the doors opened.
