Question

How did the Phoenicians use the Tigris and Euphrates River?
How did the Ancient Egyptians use the Nile River?

Ms. Sue · Accepted Answer

I couldn't find any evidence that the Phoenicians used the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.

Ancient Egyptians used the water from the Nile to grow crops, and they planted these crops in the rich soil left by the annual floods. Of course, the Nile also provided transportation.

They didn't use rivers much. They sailed all over the Mediterranean Sea. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenicia#/media/File:PhoenicianTrade.png
