Picture dated May 1964 showing the construction of the Aswan high dam in Egypt. The construction of the Aswan High Dam was initiated by Gamal Abdel Nasser and designed to control the Nile River, to create hydro-electricity for Egypt and to increase arable land in Egypt by one third, more than double its current power resources and create the world's largest man-made lake, Lake Nasser. The project, financed with Russian help, began in 1960 and the Aswan High Dam was inaugurated in 1971, the year after the death of President Nasser. (Photo credit should read -/AFP via Getty Images)
