The Nile delta, about one hundred miles from the Mediterranean, was known as Lower Egypt. Upper Egypt refers to the area upstream, closer to the source of the Nile, while Central Egypt is the region in between the two. Axum is a city located in present-day Ethiopia and was not part of ancient Egypt. Greater Egypt is not a commonly used term in reference to the delta.
