Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Egyptian Ships and Shipping: A Dissertation Structurally speaking, all boats known to have been employed by the ancient Egyptians may be divided into two classes: reed boats, and boats built of wooden planks. There is no evidence that boats of hide or bark ever existed in Egypt. There is a positive reason for believing that the Egyptians never learned to make them, in the fact that their wooden ships never had ribs; if the Egyptians had once learned to build the necessary wooden frame for a hide or bark boat, it would be remarkable that they never used a similar wooden frame in the construction of a wooden boat. Dugouts may occasionally have been imported into Egypt - for instance, from inner Africa. This is a possible explanation of the first dynasty model, Abydos, II, Plate III. But even that model may not represent a dugout: the shortness of the Open space may be due to the fact that the model is of dugout construction.

Download or read book Egyptian Boats and Ships written by Steve Vinson and published by Shire Publications. This book was released on 2008-03-04 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive survey of Egyptian nautical archaeology and history from the Predynastic period to the end of the Ptolemaic period is based on the latest findings in nautical archaeology and research. In particular, the book takes advantage of the study of possible or certain Early Dynastic boat remains from Tarkhan and Abydos, the discovery of large Middle Kingdom ship timbers from Lisht and the find of a Persion-period boat near Heliopolis. Beginning with an examination of the physical environment of the Nile Valley, the author surveys the principal chronological divisions of Egyptian history, concentrating as much as possible on actual remains of boats but also using artistic representations and historical sources. A final chapter surveys the place of boats in Egyptian religious beliefs and practices.

Download or read book Boats written by Dilwyn Jones and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on archaeological and literary evidence, Dilwyn Jones examines the importance of the boat in Egyptian ritual and belief, as well as in everyday life. The sun god was thought to travel across the sky in a solar boat, and Egyptians believed that the deserving might join the god Osiris in his divine bark after death. Boats played an important part in funerary ritual; models were often placed in tombs to provide the deceased with safe passage through the Winding Waterway in the underworld. Also, boats are frequently depicted in tomb paintings. The Nile has always been a vital transport artery for Egypt and boats the principal means of travel. Early papyrus skiffs gradually gave way to wooden craft of increasing size and sophistication, ranging from fishing boats and barges to seagoing warships, splendid ships of state and enormous obelisk barges used to transport stone to temples and monuments. Dilwyn Jones traces the development of the different types of boats and the techniques of their construction through the Old, Middle, and New Kingdom periods. The book is illustrated with photographs of boat models and paintings and with line drawings.
