logboat
Hollowed trunk vessel
A logboat is a boat made from a single hollowed-out log, among the oldest watercraft designs.
The term is interchangeable with dugout canoe: Archaeologists discovered a Bronze Age logboat in the riverbed.
Logboats appear in cultures worldwide wherever large trees grew near navigable water.
