Giant Indian coracles
#1
Does anyone know anything about these giant coracles from Hogenakkal, India? I 'm just wondering if larger ones than modern Welsh coracles were used in ancient times?

Something along this line? They're coracle shaped, sort of...and bigger :mrgreen:
Or did you have a different time frame in mind?
