Overview

This analysis reveals high costs of labor and resources in LBA shipbuilding, suggesting implications for Eastern Mediterranean forestry.

Key Points

  • The analysis highlights that labor, time, and value in Uluburun shipbuilding were significant costs.
  • Findings indicate a strong contrast between the ship's cost and its minimal impact on local forestry reserves.
  • The toolkit for energetics analysis is developed specifically for studying ancient shipbuilding methodologies.
  • The implications reach beyond this case study, proposing broader applications for energetics in archaeological contexts.
