People in Ancient Egypt travelled by feet. They used their two feet to walk around in city life. They walked around and looked at what people were selling. They used boats to transport goods to the Markets in the City. The first boats in Ancient Egypt were rafts. The rafts were made of tightly woven papyrus reeds. Guiders would use poles to guide the rafts through shallow water. Later, the Egyptians attached a mast and square sail to their boats. These ships also had oars for power in calm weather and for maneuvering around docks. Further in time, the Egyptians built larger boats to ply trade routes on the Mediterranean Sea. Some of them were 180 feet long and 60 feet wide. They travelled by boat on the Nile River.
