प्रश्न

Answer the following question briefly:

Describe the structure of dwelling houses in ancient Egypt.

संक्षेप में उत्तर

उत्तर

Houses were built around the crossing of two major roads. They were made of sun-baked bricks. Almost all the houses had flat roofs. The number of rooms in each house depended on whether the family was rich or poor. While most of the people lived in a one or two-room house without bathrooms, the richest people lived in three ­stored houses, usually made of stone, with as many as thirty rooms with bathrooms, gardens, and pools. An average house had three rooms, a courtyard, and a kitchen area. A narrow staircase led to the roof. The windows were small and were placed high up close to the ceiling to keep out the sun and let the daylight enter.
