The Egyptian priests told the Greek historian Herodotus that to build the city, Menes ordered to divert the course of the Nile and raise a dam:
"The priests explained of Menes, the first king of the Egyptians, who had protected to Memphis by a dike.
At that time, the river flowed over large dunes toward Libya.
Menes achievement the diversion of the river to the south, about 100 stages upstream of Memphis, thanks to the levees; took out the old river channel and got the current flow through a channel, between the dunes.
