ancient Egypt relied on the flood of the Nile. The Nile flooded during June to September, when the water retreats the Egyptian people started planting the seeds for their crops. They would start harvesting the crops in March through to May. The Egyptians waited for the Nile Flood so that the soil would be rich ready for the seeds which ensure maximum sucess of their crops.
they grew things like: figs, melons pomegrantes wheat, barley, vegetables, vines, and flax. If the water had raised by more than 7 metres it would destroy homes it my cause famine depending on what time it reached 7 metres.
