Egypt: barque reference

edit

There is now a reference to the "Solar barge".

However the Barque wiki is not developed for Eqypt. There appears to be some varieties:

  • The "Shrine bark", or "Shrine barque".
  • "Barque" for carrying the King, Pharaoh. (Not just the kings's Solar Barge.)
  • "Barque" for usage on the Nile.
  • Special large "Barques" were made to carry the Obelisks.
  • The ships interred at the Pyramids ? ?

It appears only 7 pages have wiki's to the european barque: ( Barque ), Set (mythology), Hatshepsut, and Seker. But there are many refences to the barque, without the wiki.

Next pages: Amenhotep I, Ineni, Senemut, KV6.

I haven't re-read each page, but I would guess thsee "barques" can't just be replaced by the Solar Barge, which is just one of the many types of "barques" for Egypt. At any rate, It does make for humor, to clik (sic) on Barque and see a many-sailed, detailed ship, of the seas. MMcAnnis,YumaAZMmcannis 05:05, 1 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
