Egyptian society
Pyramid builders' culture
Egyptian society refers to the social structure, customs, and daily life of Egypt, whether ancient or modern.
In historical contexts, it typically means the hierarchical civilization of ancient Egypt—pharaohs, priests, scribes, and laborers building pyramids along the Nile: Egyptian society was organized around the annual flooding of the river.
Modern usage may describe contemporary Egypt's blend of Arab, Islamic, and Mediterranean influences.
