What types of jobs did the workers have while building the pyramids? Explain what they did at their job and why it was important.

Ancient Egypt was a barter economy until the Persian invasion of 525 BC and workers were paid in goods rather than cash for their work

Most Egyptians took on their family occupation as social mobility was severely constrained

Jobs ranged from agriculture to mining, to the military, brewing, baking, scribing, medicine and the priesthood

The job of a scribe was one of the few jobs in ancient Egypt, which offered opportunities for social advancement

Each year during the annual Nile floods, many farmers worked as laborers on the Pharaoh’s construction projects

Bureaucrats were expected to politely follow strict rules of etiquette, providing the basis for today’s “civil servant” concept

Priests in ancient Egypt were allowed to marry and their position was often hereditary

Hope this helps :)

it's a secular holiday. it is and was a custom developed to recognize the ending of a time and a wish for a good future. the kind of kiss you exchange, if you are single, is intended to predict what kind of year you will have in the coming year.

it is saying good bye to the last year with all its ups and downs, and hello to the new year, with all its hopes and dreams.
