"Archaeologist Discovers Ancient Ships In Egypt"

According to "Janes" this would be the Egyptian Navy.

Built with Jewish slave labor?

Can Jews sue for reparations?

It has long been known that Egypt, China, and India had -- BCE -- fleets of ocean-capable ships. India in particular built truly enormous ships that went nowhere except along the coasts. The mystery remains why none of these then- sea powers ever used them to cross the oceans to the New World. Seems that it took Evil White Homophobic Racist Sexist European Males to make that leap (but I'm certain all the real work was done by uncredited women and third-worlders...)

Fascinating! The question remains: why were the boats left in a cave? Was this used as some kind of dry dock?

I am so envious I cannot stand it. This lady is pursuing a career that I dreamed of in my teen years, but I had no idea that it was even possible for a woman. (Note that I said DREAM. Due to my prefoerence for indoor comfort, I would have burned out quite early and would have been content to just read about others' exploits. LOL)

Just think how much is still yet to be found!
