0965775 - Detail of the prow of the alabaster boat. Head of a Syrian ibex and a figure thought to be Princess Mutnedjmet, of the 11th dynasty, who died when she was about 5 years old. Tukankhamen, by Christiane Desroches Noblecourt, page 109. The alabaster boat from Tutankhamen's treasures could easily be a good example of the ancient levitating ships. The columns would be a rare form, but they may be tets or djeds, ancient Egyptian wireless batteries setting up magnetic field propulsion, perhaps working in unison through the cancellation of opposite poles.
