Ancient Origins of the Egyptian Empire

<p>It is nearly impossible to imagine Giza any different today with its desert backdrop and its majestic sentinel-like pyramids that can't help but exude a sense of permanence.</p><p>Edfu's account compiled from a series of now lost books attributed to the moon-god Thoth allows us to reconstruct how the Giza plateau may have looked over 11000 years ago.</p><p>Giza was built around a shallow lake fed directly from the Nile if the texts were believed. This ecosystem is similar to what one might see today in equatorial Africa. If we find a time machine and travel back to this distant era we would find a hot humid atmosphere alive with lush green vegetation.</p><p>This hypothesis is not mere speculation for it is known that the river used to flow closer to the plateau's edge in the past.
