Not as good as id hoped, not mentioned that at all yet, but focusing on reconstucting one from a bas-releif. It seems a bit odd not to mention Menkaure though.

Blast got to this thread too late, was the program called 'Hatshepsut's seagoing ships'? Im hoping it'll be on bbc iplayer!

I've been watching it, it is facinating.

They really were very skilled. I wonder how many attempts they had at building a boat that stayed afloat.
