A viking craft found in Norway somo
time ago was In uso about the year 1000
A. d., and at once became famous as by
far the oldest specimen of watorcraft in
existence. The boats in the Gizeh mu-
scum, it was decided by the learned, were
used at lenst 800 years ago, and were
contomporancous with the Dushur pyra
mids of tho eleventh Egyptian dynasty
With this boat and the two which re-
main i'm the Cairo museum were two more,
which still rest i'm the sands which stretch
desolntcly from the Dashur pyramids, near
which they were found
The nyo boats were found buried at a
considerable depth, not far from the famous
largest pyramid and in such orderly form
and with such mathematical relationship
to the great pile of stone that it was evi
dent that they had been buried with de-
sign at that particular spot.
The boats were found to be alike in the
material Of which they were constructed
and I'm their general dimensions. The ce-
dar of antiquity, which entered into SO
much of the construction Of things OF
wood, was used in building these boats.
While the equipments of the boats had
generally disappeared with time, theil
shapcly outlines stiI remained.
The boat that is i'm Chicago now was
probably better preserved than any 1t is
80 feet long, feet of beam and feet OF
hold A well preserved and peculiarly
marked and designed piece Of rudder Of
wood was found near the boats. Harper S
