What were the eastern western and north boundaries of Egyptian settlement

Egypt has always had its life linked to the waters of this river and its flood periods, during which the soil of the banks is fertilized, making it possible to develop an agriculture capable of supporting huge populations. For this reason, in ancient times Egypt was known as the "Barn of the East".

In the last centuries of the 5th millennium a. C., with the process of desertification of North Africa and the formation of the Sahara Desert, as statistics and seminars from the region were drawn to the banks of the Nile River. The occupation of the Nile basin occurred from the successive access of tribes from Libya (west), Ethiopia (east) and Palestine (without Middle East), which ended the formation of the Egyptian population.
