Ancient Egyptian inventions still used today

Ancient Egypt, being ancient and all, scored a lot of world firsts, but a first isn't necessarily an invention. In this video I discuss to firsts that Ancient Egypt came up with that were exported to the rest of the world.

Most of these are still around in one form or another in the modern era, or are at least recognisable to us now.

Look out for a new Armchair Egyptology video every Wednesday.
