Beer makes things better , it's how the workers were paid

bobwjr Level 10 Feb 14, 2021

Along with Beer brewed by mixing bread, water and grain together and leaving it to ferment, they were also paid with fresh meats, fruits, vegetables, fish, were given good and decent accommodations, had their families with them, i.e. wife and children, worked 8 days and had 2 days free of work plus had the BEST medical care available for the times.
Actual money, Coinage, was NOT used in Ancient Egypt until AFTER the Greeks went there much later in the country's history, everything was done on Barter System before the Greeks.
