我們可以從古埃及文化中學到甚麼?

古埃及文明起源於公元前3100年左右，比古希臘文化早了大約2300年，是世界上最早的文明之一，它沿著尼羅河發展起來。古埃及人發展了複雜的宗教、政治和社會制度。他們在建築、藝術、科學和技術方面取得了重大成就。古埃及文明對後來的文明產生了深遠的影響，包括構成西方文明基礎的古希臘文明。

認識文明的搖籃：

• 你知道現今我們在用的日曆是3000多年前古埃及人發明的嗎! 古埃及被認為是最早的文明之一，為數學、天文、建築和醫學等許多領域奠定了基礎。 學習古埃及文化可以讓我們了解人類文明的進步歷程，以及我們今天視為理所當然的許多事物是如何奠基的。

問題解決和資源管理：

• 沒有起重機或是推土機這些現代工具，古埃及人的工程師和建築團隊是怎樣蓋出像金字塔這樣巨大的建築?  他們善用智慧與技巧，在資源有限的嚴苛環境中茁壯成長的能力，凸顯了問題解決、資源管理和適應方面的寶貴技能。 這些技能也可以用於日常挑戰和決策制定。

書寫和交流的重要性：

• 象形文字 (一種複雜的書寫系統) 的發展展示了交流和紀錄保存的重要性。 它說明了書面語言如何塑造歷史，並繼續成為進步的基石。

欣賞及接納不同文化：

• 古埃及人有著複雜的宗教信仰體系，為多神信仰；而其獨特且宏偉壯觀的藝術建築、具高度藝術價值的豐富文學，可以培養我們對多元文化和信仰體系的欣賞。學習透過不同的視角看世界，對人類歷史有更開拓的理解。

啟發和創造力：

• 從宏偉的金字塔到精美的藝術品，古埃及體現了創新和藝術表現力。可以激發孩子不論是藝術創作或是到解決問題的創造力。
