World of Nakht-Amun Game.

Scores:
Jasmine: 10/10
Christina: 10/10


Home:
Nakht-Amun's home is in an Egyptian village
on the banks of the Nile River. The village was
located in the Valley of the Kings and Deir el-Medina.
It was on hill to aviod the Nile flooding. Modern Egypt
has built dams so the Nile does not flood anymore.

School:
Rich children started school between the ages of
five to ten years old. Children who did not want
to do the lessons were punished. Boys who often
ran away had their legs tied to together and sometimes
they were beaten. Lessons were written in ink on broken
stone or pottery. Scribes taught their own sons and larger
groups while at temples and palaces ran out and taught
their own classes
