In this paragraph I'm going to compared the cities of Tjeku and Mohenjo-daro. In Egypt they had huge cites like Tjeku. Each city had temples and monuments like the ones Ramses built. In Mohenjo-daro they had baths, in-door plumbing. They also had large temples, along with monuments. In both cities they liked to go to the extreme when it came to the things they built in Egypt it was the monuments, for Mohenjo-daro it was the public baths.

In Egypt they had specialized workers each with there own role to play in the civilization. The top of the social triangle is the pharaoh(s). Then came the priests. Followed by the soldiers. Fourth comes the builders and designers. Next comes merchants. Followed by the traders. Then lastly the slaves. All civilizations had something similar.
