The development of ancient Egyptian civilization since September 12,000 BC. Reception and development are considered its most important features due to Egypt’s distinguished geographical location, as it is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, while it passes through the Nile River, coming from the south and heading towards the north. It is also considered the natural border of Egypt and its extension in both the Eastern Desert The Western Sahara and the Southern Falls are a divine reward and protective elements that help impede the movement of invaders and greedy people, which helped destroy an ancient civilization over time .The land of Egypt is also characterized by clear features and a clear harmony between the surface of the earth, its mountains, its plains, its Nile, and its seas, which pushed the ancient Egyptian artist towards contemplation and creativity. This special nature of Egypt and its distinct composition had a strong impact on the development of ancient Egyptian art, as this helped to distinguish it in a style that distinguishes it from others, especially in the form and style of wording that appeared influenced by the geographical terrain of Egypt.
