Yes, boats and ships existed before the construction of Noah's Ark, as various ancient civilizations built watercraft for fishing, trade, and transportation. Archaeological evidence indicates that early boats, such as dugouts and reed boats, were used by cultures like the Egyptians and Mesopotamians thousands of years before the biblical account of the Ark. These early vessels varied in size and design, showcasing the ingenuity of human engineering in adapting to aquatic environments.
