RT Article T1 Bow Piece Construction of Ancient Egyptian Baris (Herodotus Hist. 2.96) JF The international journal of nautical archaeology VO 53 IS 2 SP 289 OP 311 A1 Belov, Alexander LA English YR 2024 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1908262222 AB Many ships from Thonis-Heracleion, a submerged city on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt, show numerous parallels with the construction of the Nilotic freighter baris as described by Herodotus (Hist. 2.96). During the spring mission of 2022 four massive constructional pieces of the bow from these ships were excavated and studied. Bow pieces played an important role in the structure of a baris. Obtained information complements the documentation of a baris as described by Herodotus and serves as a new architectural signature for this type of construction.
