E
ducation is the privilege of the wealthy. The
wealthy no longer perform manual labor, and
they want their children never to experience the
horrors of toiling and sweating under the sun’s hot
rays. To attain this goal for their children, wealthy
scribes like to have Scribal Schools close by. They also
like access to Libraries to enhance their own knowl-
edge.

Scribal Schools and Libraries are the two types of edu-
cational facilities you can build. Construct them by
clicking the “Education Structures” button on the
Control Panel.
Papyrus
Papyrus, made by papyrus makers from common reeds
that grow along the Nile, is a key resource to both
Scribal Schools and Libraries. Teachers and librarians
use papyrus and cannot bring the benefits of education
to your city’s wealthier citizens without it. Because
they need papyrus to fill their shelves with scrolls,
Libraries cannot be built until there is a supply of
papyrus stored in the Storage Yards. To keep your
education system working, then, it’s important to have
a thriving papyrus industry or a steady stream of cost-
ly papyrus imports.

Once a Scribal School is fully staffed and has a stock of
papyrus, teachers walk through the city’s neighbor-
hoods educating the youth of well-to-do households.
Each time a teacher leaves the Scribal School, he takes
some papyrus with him so that his pupils can practice
