How is the Egyptian different from our seasons?

The Egyptian seasons are primarily based on the annual flooding of the Nile River and the agricultural cycle, comprising three main periods: Akhet (flooding), Peret (growing), and Shemu (harvest). Unlike the four seasons of temperate climates, which are determined by changes in temperature and daylight, Egypt's seasons are closely tied to agricultural practices and the river's behavior. Additionally, Egypt's climate is predominantly arid, leading to less variation in weather compared to regions with distinct seasonal changes. This agricultural focus resulted in a calendar that prioritized farming activities rather than temperature changes.
