The Nile has a major role in the life of the Egyptians. The Nile flood affected the lands and inhabitants of ancient Egypt. Most of the Nilometers during the Pharaonic and Graeco-Roman period was constructed in conjunction with a temple area. They were used to record the annual inundation of the Nile.
