help with project!!?

I have a project due tomorrow. We’re supposed to be making a travel guide to an ancient civilization, and mine is Egypt. We have to include good things about our place and bad things. I’ve been researching a lot and I cannot find any information about dangers in ancient Egypt. What did people fear living there? What could I write about to “warn” tourists of? And no I’m not lazy and not doing my work, the rest of the project is pretty much done and I’m stuck! There were not very many good books in the library (I’m sure there were some, but I did not have much time to look). Could anyone at least give me some ideas? thanksss! =)

Check out http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/ and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egypt. Think about the life of the average Egyptian including things like war, disease, slavery, dealing with the whims of a pharaoh, drought, pests.

Okay…WHat about the actual physical dangers (Heat, lack of water, dangerous desert animals…) as well as the fear of angering the gods?
