Egypt, Arkansas is a small town located in Craighead County near the Cache River. The town was established in 1898 by New York businessmen attracted to the area's abundant timber. The narrow gauge railway by the Sedgwick Tie and Timber Company connected the town to the major line of the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis Railroad, which stimulated its growth. The town was home to several stores, a gin, a school, and churches in the 1930s and 1950s, but never experienced major growth due to its location far from the main railway line and major highways. In 1942 an oil pipeline pumping station was built near Bald Knob, Ar. to move oil northeast along the Big Inch oil pipeline. The town's decline started after the cutting of timber and the consolidation of schools. It was incorporated as a town in 1984 and had a population of 113 in the 2020 census.
