The ship models were made first of all for religious reasons. Not happy with the banality of their lives the man wanted another life, an eternal life, but the soul - being immaterial - needed a way to reach the afterlife, like to cross a river, and so it needed a boat. The oldest model is a silver boat found at Ur in Iraq, and dated back to 2,000 BC.
