The rich and fascinating history of Egypt goes back thousands of years celebrating the Pharaohs and the beautiful monuments built by the towers were just one example of their heritage.
Nineteenth-century explorers marveled at the ancient temples
south of Egypt, the Pharaohs' power extended throughout the Nile and even across the Sahara Desert here in Nubia, building huge structures.
That defied human power and nature for thousands of years in the 1960s when the decision was made. building one of the largest dams in the world with seemingly closed temples to be immersed under.
A huge lake whose rescue from the Nile water was possible thanks to international cooperation and the efforts of many.
thousands of people.
It has taken more than two decades of unprecedented effort to save monuments with different technical solutions some rescue temples may be interested in NASA lake while others are transported thousands of miles to Europe or our crossing route south of Egypt takes.
We in this world treasures the Nile flows through Egypt to the Mediterranean both is a waterway and a source of irrigation the ancient Egyptians considered it a gift from the gods one of the most impressive and progressive civilizations of ancient times.
Aswan is located deep in the south of Egypt and has long been the border between northern Egypt and Africa which is part of the ancient nubia lying here buried in sand these days the region is part of Egypt and Sudan in ancient times borders existed.
Naturally, the granite rock rapids of the Nubia cataracts of the Nile were of great interest to the Egyptians because of the ebony of gold ivory, and slaves.
The Nubian kings who were also known as the kings of the Cushite empire were sometimes allies with Pharaoh and sometimes enemies.
Between 400 bc and 300 ad meri with the pyramid, structures were the capital of cus at the end of the 4th century BC, the Pharaohs established a great empire from the Nile River in the north to the head of the first Nile in the south.
The Egyptians built a series of forts to control the area far from the border but the kings wanted to increase even more nubia. 18 European explorers up the Nile River to Sudan was a revelation here in the well-known south of Egypt with numerous ancient sites.
They discovered that for thousands of years the great sacred tombs and temples were engraved on stone tablets sent by the Pharaohs and those of the Greeks and Romans were captivated by the size of their colors and the mysteries surrounding them.
Their history of this rich Nubian treasure was threatened. with the devastation in the 1960s, the waters of the Nile were rising at an unprecedented rate mainly due to the intervention of the Egyptian people. T's population exploded urban development and modernity.
A country where the political challenges of the time and the annual floods of the Nile blocked these events and the Egyptians no longer wanted to depend.
On the river in 1954 Egyptian president, kamal Abdul Nasser decided to build a new dam in Aswan the mammoth.
The project will not only be one of the largest river structures ever in existence but also one of the most expensive areas to fund the construction of a dam.
Emphasized its policy of neutrality and fairness in purchasing weapons in Czechoslovakia. The United States withdrew its offers to finance international banks.
France Israel and England with UN mediation this problem is over the withdrawal of Britain and France Egypt came very close to the Soviet Union that provided.
The resources and expertise to remove the dam project on the ground the as1 dam is 111 meters high from east to west are 3830 meters high and 980 meters wide below to build, 43 million cubic meters of excavation and rock had to be dumped on the old riverbank 17 times.
The amount of material used for the Kio ps dam tower created a large reservoir upstream from NASA lake more than 1 mile -500 length.
The 5250-square-mile [5250 sq km] area required more than 100,000 people to be resettled in Sudan and Egypt and other people to be resettled in newly constructed areas.
Some villages move to another part of Egypt especially Cairo or overseas a large area of water now includes ancient nubia a beautiful and sad place at the same time.
The almost desert coast can be overlooked by the rocky mountains that once marked the edge of the Sahara plain. the small islands now surrounded by dangerous mountains were the tops of 50 mountains.
Years ago our elders told us that before the dam you could roam like you were in a ditch or river it was easy to move from one place to another because the Nile in Nubia was not very wide.
at that time there were no maps or GPS that knew all the valleys and stopped.
Where they wanted and then proceeded to Aswan or ward crossing the NASA lake means to follow. The steps of the Pharaoh's buildings in the mid-1950s the story of the dam's construction began with the archeological race.
Egyptologists from all over the world have a limited amount of time to explore the Nile valley with thousands of years of human history but scientists have only been able to dig.
A third of the archaeological sites before the rise in water level made further excavation impossible.
The project of the dam sparked a worldwide debate about the end of nubia values on how one decides between cultural heritage and further development between food security and past preservation.
Media reports were skeptical of Egypt's chances of saving so many monuments that some foresaw the coming visit to the temple.
The only real diving was even more spectacular the many monuments were engraved on fragile rock...CONTINUE
