In ancient Egypt all of the buildings and farms were built along the Nile river, since this was the only plentiful water source in the desert. because of this they had to have small, square, houses so as to have the maximum number of people in the small area of the Nile riverbanks. Egyptian men were often farmers or builders, but some were glassblowers and priests, and there was the pharaoh and other royalty. The Egyptian women took care of the house and children, though some also became priests.
