Boats egyptian
Jones, D.
Paperback. 100p with 60 b/w & 8 col plates. (British Museum Press/Texas UP 1995).With the Nile as its main artery it is not surprising that boats played an important part in ancient Egyptian life. Dilwyn Jones draws on the archaeological and literary evidence in his examination of the role of the boat in ritual and belief as well as in the practicalities of everyday life - from papyrus skiffs to fishing boats to enormous obelisk barges.
