Ancient Egyptian peasants used ploughs, rakes, forks, baskets, wooden sickles with flint blades, winnowing scoops, sieves and mattocks for digging. Most tools were of wood, or wood and stone, only rarely with copper cutting edges.

Irrigation was sometimes by shaduf (the modern Arabic name) or by carrying water in pottery vessels suspended from a yoke carried on the shoulders.
