In ancient Egypt, butchers were vital for providing meat for daily consumption and religious offerings. They prepared animals for temple rituals and sold meat in markets, though it was often a luxury. Despite their importance, they belonged to the working class. Butchers used simple tools and were depicted in tomb art performing their tasks.

These battles highlighted the strategic use of the Nile for both warfare and logistics.

SHIPBUILDING ⛵️
Shipbuilding in ancient Egypt was essential for transportation, trade, and religious ceremonies. Early ships were made of papyrus reeds, later evolving into wooden vessels with sails and oars. Cedar wood was imported for durability, while local materials like sycamore and flax were used for construction. Ships were used to transport goods, conduct trade, and support military and religious activities. The famous Khufu ship (circa 2500 BCE) exemplifies their advanced craftsmanship, highlighting the importance of shipbuilding in Egypt’s development.

In ancient Egypt, moving massive statues involved advanced techniques. Workers used wooden sledges to transport statues, often wetting the sand ahead to reduce friction. They also built ramps to lift statues to elevated spots. A famous example is the colossal statue of Ramses II, which was moved from Aswan to Thebes, reflecting the Egyptians' impressive engineering skills.
