Model of a Boat
Created circa 1985–1650 BCE
Wood
30 1/2 x 20 1/2 x 41 inches
Ancient Egyptian
During the Middle Kingdom, tombs often contained models of boats for the deceased to use in a journey across water, a trip necessary to achieve resurrection in the afterlife. With its round bottom and prow (the front part of the bow) and stern in the shape of stylized papyrus, this model boat resembles actual boats used on the Nile.
