Ancient Navigators
How They Navigate –
- They would use the sun/Sun compass to guide them in the open sea
- They would use a type of bird called the gannet which is a sea bird and they release that bird at night to find land.
- They could also navigate because in the olden days they had a person called helmsman
- They also had a compass called the gyrocompass
Back in the olden days people used lots of things to keep them safe in the sea which is listed in the list on top but my favorite navigating tool is the sundial and the gyrocompass and the bird gannet.
