Distances: Sunda Strait to Southern Maldives: Approx. 1600 n.m. The vessel should be capable of transporting some Maldives to Northern Madagascar: Approx. 1300 n.m. 25-30 persons, all necessary provisions, stores and a cargo of a few cubic metres volume. Assuming that the voyaging route to Madagascar was via the Maldives, a reasonably swift vessel As far as possible the reconstruction will be built could expect to make each leg of the voyage in using construction techniques from 1st millennium approximately two weeks in the southern winter Southeast Asia: edge-doweled planking, lashings months when good southeasterly winds can be to lugs on the inboard face of planks (tambuku) to expected. However, a period of calm can be secure the frames, and multiple through-beams to experienced at any time of year and provisioning strengthen the hull structure. for three-four weeks would be prudent. The Maldives would provide limited opportunity There are five bas-relief depictions of large vessels for re-provisioning. It can be assumed that rice with outriggers in the galleries of Borobudur. They sufficient for protracted voyaging would be carried are not five depictions of the same vessel. While from Java. the five vessels are obviously similar and may be seen as illustrating a distinct type of vessel there are differences in the clearly observed details.

    Ship Construction Techniques in Antiquity around the World and Modern Documentation Methods in Underwater Archaeology INP Séances scientifiques Speaker: Max Fiederling M.A. Ancient Ship Building and construction techniques around the world Terms and categories: hide, log, sewn, lashed-plank, clinker (and reverse-clinker), Mortise and tenon / shell-first and frame-first. Frame-first technique dominates the modern ship construction industry, the ancient ship builders relied primarily on the other techniques to build their watercrafts. Regardless of differences in the construction, the vessels of the ancient world were also seaworthy crafts, capable of allowing people to engage in large-scale maritime trade as well as in inland trade on rivers and lakes. Stone carving - Norway / 9000 BCE? During the Paleolithic people probably began to build watercrafts for the first time, with which the high seas can be sailed. They were probably already plank boats or larger skin boats. Cyprus, Crete, Sardinia, Ireland, Canary Islands => first traces of settlements originating from the mainland. The targeted deep-sea fishing also begins a little outside of visual contact with the coast. Framed Boats Bark Canoes Skin boats Skin boats dominated seafaring in places that were scarce on wood, including the arctic and subarctic. They were made by stretching skin or leather over frames of wood or bone. These include kayaks and umiaks, coracles and currachs Birchbark Canoe Coracle / India 2019. Large birchbark canoes, like the one pictured above (1926) were used by northern Indigenous groups to reach interior waterways Ancient Assyrian bas relief (700-629 BC) of the river Tigris showing the shipping of in search of caribou.

  • Canoe and Kayak Licence Requirements
    Canoe and Kayak Licence Requirements Waterways & Environment Briefing Note On many waterways across the country a licence, day pass or similar is required. It is important all waterways users ensure they stay within the licensing requirements for the waters the use. Waterways licences are a legal requirement, but the funds raised enable navigation authorities to maintain the waterways, improve facilities for paddlers and secure the water environment. We have compiled this guide to give you as much information as possible regarding licensing arrangements around the country. We will endeavour to keep this as up to date as possible, but we always recommend you check the current situation on the waters you paddle. Which waters are covered under the British Canoeing licence agreements? The following waterways are included under British Canoeing’s licensing arrangements with navigation authorities: All Canal & River Trust Waterways - See www.canalrivertrust.org.uk for a list of all waterways managed by Canal & River Trust All Environment Agency managed waterways - Black Sluice Navigation; - River Ancholme; - River Cam (below Bottisham Lock); - River Glen; - River Great Ouse (below Kempston and the flood relief channel between the head sluice lock at Denver and the Tail sluice at Saddlebrow); - River Lark; - River Little Ouse (below Brandon Staunch); - River Medway – below Tonbridge; - River Nene – below Northampton; - River Stour (Suffolk) – below Brundon Mill, Sudbury; - River Thames – Cricklade Bridge to Teddington (including the Jubilee

    UC Berkeley Survey Reports, Survey of California and Other Indian Languages Title The Plank Canoe of Southern California: Not a Polynesian Import, but a Local Innovation Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1977t6ww Author Meroz, Yoram Publication Date 2013 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California The Plank Canoe of Southern California: Not a Polynesian Import, but a Local Innovation YORAM MEROZ By nearly a millennium ago, Polynesians had settled most of the habitable islands of the eastern Pacific, as far east as Easter Island and as far north as Hawai‘i, after journeys of thousands of kilometers across open water. It is reasonable to ask whether Polynesian voyagers traveled thousands of kilometers more and reached the Americas. Despite much research and speculation over the past two centuries, evidence of contact between Polynesia and the Americas is scant. At present, it is generally accepted that Polynesians did reach South America, largely on the basis of the presence of the sweet potato, an American cultivar, in prehistoric East Polynesia. More such evidence would be significant and exciting; however, no other argument for such contact is currently free of uncertainty or controversy.1 In a separate debate, archaeologists and ethnologists have been disputing the rise of the unusually complex society of the Chumash of Southern California. Chumash social complexity was closely associated with the development of the plank-built canoe (Hudson et al. 1978), a unique technological and cultural complex, whose origins remain obscure (Gamble 2002). In a recent series of papers, Terry Jones and Kathryn Klar present what they claim is linguistic, archaeological, and ethnographical evidence for prehistoric contact from Polynesia to the Americas (Jones and Klar 2005, Klar and Jones 2005).
