The Nile River created the conditions in the Nile River Valley region that encouraged the flourishing of some of humankind's earliest sedentary cultures. The Nile's quickly northward flowing waters not only created the agricultural land that made civilization possible but provided an easy route for trade between regions up and down the river.

Although the Nile River Valley provided all of the agricultural production for the region, the Nubians were adept hunters and enriched their kingdom by trading animal products such as skins and ivory. Exchanging Valentines can be an awkward process, especially when you consider “Vinegar Valentines” and other snarky sentiments - whatever your tastes, enjoy the sweet and sour cards alike in this gallery! Ralph Epperson purports to uncover hidden and sinister meanings behind all the symbols found on the Great Seal of the United States, committing America to "A Secret Destiny. The ASA Restoration Project was established by Anthony Browder (with the generous support of the Hilliard family) as a fitting tribute to a man who was loved worldwide and taken from us too soon.

As a work challenging Eurocentrism and making an argument for the worldwide cultural impact of Kemet, he succeeds and enlightens many. As noted, Browder is more adept at challenging the biases of Eurocentrism and exploring its effect on our world history, Kemet's legacy, and Afrikan consciousness than he is at shaping a convincing global narrative of Kemetian influence. But, it is a joy as a person of color when he challenges the faulty logic of racism by demonstrating Nile valley society's influence throughout the US, especially; his section on contemporary Egyptian symbolism will interest most, as well as his later examination of Eurocentrism and white supremacy. Those cultures first became Upper and Lower Egypt, then merged into the Old Kingdom between 3100 and 3050 B. Egyptians established major cities at Memphis and Thebes along with many others in the Nile River delta.

Ancient Nubian culture grew alongside the banks of the Nile in similar fashion to Egypt, only several centuries later and farther south along the Nile, south of modern-day Aswan. The flooding of the Nile River would begin in June and continue through September, the water would recede by October, leaving fertile lands for crops. The well-documented whitening of Afrikan history is explored, and as a true critical thinker, Browder poses interesting questions without forcing us to accept his point of view. The Nile River continues to be the lifeline of North Africa, moving people and goods, while providing sustainability. This created excellent agricultural land along the banks of the Nile, an area that otherwise would have been desert.The Nubian people utilized the Nile River for agriculture developing irrigation and farming methods.
