A BIASED VIEW OF MILITARY NAVAL VESSELS - SEA TRANSPORT SOLUTIONS




Egypt The very first tape-recorded appearance of warships is on the Nile River,
where Egypt's history has actually centred because antiquity. These boats were
constructed of bundles of reeds lashed together to form a narrow, sharp-ended
hull and coated with pitch, and they were hardly suited for tempestuous seas. By
3000 bce bigger wooden seagoing variations of the reed craft sailed for distant
cruising, trade, and conquest.


2600 bce, based on vessels portrayed in the bas-relief discovered in the pyramid
of King Sahure at Ab r, Cairo. Thanks to the Science Museum, London Egyptian
wooden ships had both oars and sails, being fitted with a bipod (inverted V)
mast and a single, big, square sail. The entire mast could be lowered when under
oars.

The war galley was developed to the exact same pattern but was of stouter

modification of a merchant ship.

At some point in the second millennium bce the commodious merchantman progressed
as a beamy "round ship" powered by sails and emphasizing cargo capacity at the
expenditure of speed. By contrast, the fast battling "long ship" was narrower,
faster, and more agile than the tubby cargo ship. Establishing as both predator
on and protector of maritime trade and seaside cities, it hoisted its sails for
travelling but depended on oars when in action.


The dramatically pointed or "beaked" bows suggest an emphasis on the tactical
use of the ram. Beginning about Research It Here , the Phoenicians dominated the
eastern Mediterranean for about three centuries. Info about Phoenician ships is
fragmentary, but they appear to have actually been constructed mostly for
trading, with a capability to eliminate successfully if necessary.
