Read the text and find if the sentences are True (T) or False (F)
What was life in ancient Egypt like? Scientists have found writing and drawings on walls that tell us
many things about the customs and traditions of the people who lived in the area around the river Nile.
Let’s go back a bit in time and see what Tipi, a young girl, has to say:
“Egyptian homes are very often built of bricks made of mud that we dry in the sun. In this way, they become very hard. Our houses are usually white to offer shelter from the heat of the sun. There are columns in the front and small windows and doors that also keep the homes cool. The roof is flat and sometimes my family and I sleep there. We eat many things like vegetables, bread and tasty seafood that fishermen catch in the Nile with nets. They must be careful though! The Nile is full of crocodiles!
My parents drink wine and a different kind of beer that we make with bread!
I play a lot with my friends. A very popular game among children is one with small balls made of
wood or cloth. We also have religious festivals in honour of the many Gods we worship. During these celebrations we wear traditional costumes”.
