Ancient Egypt: The Development of Record Keeping in the “Old Kingdom”

Yıl 2012, Sayı: 3 - Sayı: 3, 41 - 62, 01.07.2012

Öz

The Ancient Egyptian Civilization is one of the longest and richest civilizations
in the world. The development of record keeping and the rise of the importance of
the scribe corresponded with the realization of a large agriculture surplus and the
introduction of centralized and efficient administration of the country. The old kingdom,
2686 – 2160 BC was the era of pyramid building. These magnificent and large projects
testify to the ingenuity of the architects, the administrators, and the scribes of the time.
The record keeping function was responsive to the needs of the society and its rulers.
