Answer 1

Answer:

First Cataract

Explanation:

On the map, we can see that gold could be found in the lower parts of the river of the Nile. This part is called The First Cataract, and it is in the south of Egypt near Aswan.

These cataracts are the areas of the Nile where the flow is quick due to the shallow water. It started at Aswan in Egypt in the first part, and ends in Khartoum, capital of Sudan, with the sixth cataract.

Even in ancient times, gold was found in these places and was one of the main resources for Egypt as well as the kingdom of Nubia, which was on the south.
