Ferriby Boats

The Ferriby Boats are three Bronze-Age British sewn plank-built boats, parts of which were discovered at North Ferriby in the East Riding of the English county of Yorkshire. Only a small number of boats of a similar period have been found in Britain and the Ferriby examples are the earliest known se

wn-plank boats found in Europe, as well as the oldest known sewn-plank boats in the world outside of Egypt.
