Fire Emblem Fates — Description

The first known vessels date back about 10,000 years ago, but could not be described as ships. The first navigators began to use animal skins or woven fabrics as sails. Affixed to the top of a pole set upright in a boat, these sails gave early ships range. This allowed men to explore widely, allowing for the settlement of Oceania for example (about 3,000 years ago).

By around 3000 BC, Ancient Egyptians knew how to assemble wooden planks into a hull.[9] They used woven straps to lash the planks together,[9] and reeds orgrass stuffed between the planks helped to seal the seams.[9][10] The Greek historian and geographer Agatharchides had documented ship-faring among the early Egyptians: "During the prosperous period of the Old Kingdom, between the 30th and 25th centuries B. C., the river-routes were kept in order, andEgyptian ships sailed the Red Sea as far as the myrrh-country."[11] Sneferu's ancient cedar wood ship Praise of the Two Lands is the first reference recorded (2613 BC) to a ship being referred to by name.[12]
