Why was the wood in Egypt so expensive?

0

Egypt is a desert. There are some oases, but not a large quantity of trees. Wood for any major construction had to be brought in from a distance. There were no vehicles for mass transportation. It had to be sent by manned ships down the Nile. The ship’s crew had to be paid and fed, which raised the cost of the product.
