Was it cold or hot where the Egyptian or Indus Valley civilizations.
It is difficult to determine the exact temperature during the time of the Egyptian and Indus Valley civilizations as they existed thousands of years ago. However, both civilizations were located in regions that generally experience warm to hot climates.
Egypt is located in northeastern Africa, and much of its land consists of desert. As a result, the climate of ancient Egypt was primarily dry and hot, with temperatures reaching high levels, especially during the summer months.
The Indus Valley civilization was situated in what is now Pakistan and northwest India. The climate in this region is generally hot, with temperatures often exceeding 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) in summer. However, the presence of the Indus River led to more moderate temperatures in some areas.
Overall, both civilizations would have experienced hot or warm climates for the most part.
