Long before the glory of Rome and the marvels of today’s modern day

skyscrapers, one of the world’s most amazing civilizations flourished in

Egypt. Like most great civilizations, ancient Egypt’s grandeur can be

attributed to a mix of natural bounty and human ingenuity. The rich waters

of the Nile provided the resources and pathways to build dynamic trade

routes, while Egypt’s architects dedicated themselves to harnessing

the power of the Nile to engineer the stunning structures which have

achieved world renown. Over the course of generations and centuries,

these architects built dams, pyramids, temples, fortresses, and tombs

that have become models of engineering innovation. Students will learn

how ideas travel from being virtually inconceivable to becoming reality

through dedication, careful thinking, and daring experimentation.

Egypt: Engineering an Empire delves into the techniques and tools

architects masterminded to create the structures and landscapes that

continue to fascinate us today. The story opens in 3032 B.C. as the

Nile’s flooding tests the dams of the city of Memphis, and follows through the enthralling development of Egyptian

cities over the course of centuries. Powerful Egyptian pharaohs and pedigreed queens enlisted their architects

and thousands of laborers to pour their sweat and talents into enacting their visions. With commentary from

historians and colorful maps, this two-hour documentary offers a fresh perspective on this amazing culture of long

ago and the influence of its inventions in today’s cities and cultures.
