WHEN WAS IRRIGATION FIRST USED? Irrigation is the watering of plants by artificial means. Without irrigation there could be no farming in dry regions. Very early in history, man learned how to move water. The ancient Egyptians, for example, practiced irrigation more than 4,000 years ago. The Egyptians at first carried water from the Nile River to their fields in jars. Later they learned to divert the water to the land through simple dams and canals. The early irrigation systems depended on the yearly flooding of the Nile. Irrigation was carried on by town dwelling Indians of New Mexico and Arizona long before the white man came to America.
The Egyptians did not have running water in their homes, but water could be taken from nearby wells. Workers' homes had very little furniture, including beds and storage chests for clothes. The houses of the wealthy were much larger and up to three stories tall.he ancient Egyptians ate food that is not much different from what we eat today. Because the Nile River supplied them with a constant water source, the Egyptians were able to grow many different kinds of crops in their desert environment.
