It's also here on our front porch!
This is the model of the Nile river as suggested in Susan Wise Bauer's Story of the World Activity Guide for the ancients (vol. 1). Okay, I did the actual model by myself, but the girls enjoy flooding it. It was a pleasant sight to see the grass seeds all sprout up. The rock you see is supposed to represent the mountains in Northeast Egypt, so we're actually looking at it from the east in the top pic and from the north in the lower pic.
I had a nice little pyramid fashioned and painted shiny gold, but I failed to realize that natural (air-dried) clay will reconstitute when it sits in a puddle of water..... So my pyramid melted.
