What can a pastiche Middle Kingdom boat tell us about body worlds? In my recent article, I take a model solar boat as a case study to illustrate how the notion of body worlds can help us make sense of the complex biography of this object. ⛵ tinyurl.com/txae35k9 #egyptologyindialogue

A wooden painted model boat with ten standing and two crouching male figures in knee-length white kilts facing towards the mast at the centre of the boat. The bow has a trapezoidal finial with a striped cover and the stern, an orange, white and black box with a yellow-brown falcon on top.
