In ancient Egypt, the two prominent figures associated with shipbuilding were Pharaoh Khufu and the shipwrights of the Old Kingdom. Khufu, known for the Great Pyramid of Giza, also commissioned the construction of solar boats intended for his afterlife. These ships were crafted from cedar wood and showcased the advanced maritime skills of Egyptian artisans. The shipwrights played a crucial role in designing and building vessels for trade, transportation, and ceremonial purposes along the Nile and beyond.
