User: Trade and transport in egypt and surrounding countries?





Weegy: Boats were a big part of both travel and trade in Ancient Egypt because of the Nile River. There were many different kinds of boats, but the first boats were made of papyrus reeds. [ The reeds were bound with papyrus rope, which is made from reed fibers. This boat wasn’t in style forever. By 3200 BC, timber was being imported from Lebanon to build wooden ships instead. Image of ferry boat at from Greg Reeder, reeder@sirius.com, March 2000. Email message. They had ferries so people without boats could cross the Nile. These ferries carried people and goods across and along the river. Royal boats allowed the pharaoh and his family to ride in style. A huge canopy protected the royal family from the sun and people staring at them. The Egyptians even had cattle boats. These boats had wide flat decks for the cattle. The farmers would do almost anything to protect their cattle because their cattle was where most of their money came from. ]

Trade and transport in Egypt and surrounding countries rely heavily on the Nile River, the Suez Canal, and regional highways, facilitating goods exchange between Africa, the Middle East, and Europe.
