The  Daily Life Of Farmers And Soldiers In Ancient Egypt





The ancient Egyptian farmers were quite poor, they didn’t really have much, many of their houses were made out of mud bricks and some floors were made out of packed dirt.  Most of the farmers cooked with small ovens fueled by burning cattle dung. They were sometimes called out to help make big things such as pyramids etc. Although some of the wealthier and luckier farmers could get out these jobs. They usually ate bread, fruit, meat and beer. They wore a coarse linen kilt and a pear of reed sandals.

 
The ancient Egyptian soldiers were the ones that went to battle for the Egyptians, sometimes Egyptians would force young men into joining the army, the pain they went through was unbelievable they had really tough training
every day. They mostly ate bread and wore sandals.
