Does anyone know what fruits and berries were available in Ancient Egypt at about 1800 BC?

From what I've gathered in a few minutes they made some 'great' beer...

Here is an article that names many of them:
Ancient Egypt: Fruits and Vegetables (http://nefertiti.iwebland.com/timelines/topics/vegetables.htm)

And this one, To Live and Die in Ancient Egypt; Food, Drink, and Feasting (http://www.fodors.com/miniguides/mgresults.cfm?destination=cairo@40&cur_section=fea&feature=30001) adds that "nabk berries were common."

And if you want to take it further, here's a bunch of links for pages with "ancient egypt" AND fruit AND berries. (http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&newwindow=1&safe=off&q=%22ancient+egypt%22berries+fruits&btnG=Search)

That's very helpful - thanks a lot!
