It was discovered 250 yrs ago on someone's estate? Do you think they
were automotive engineers? Did you even read the article?

Yes I did read the article. did you?

It was built possibly 250 years ago and found in a barn on a
historical estate. But please humour me. What native tribe constructed
it and from which University did they recieve their engineering
degree?

Beavers build dams and lodges on streams up here. Darn liberal arts
majors.

Did you read the article ?

In the 2nd paragraph it says: " and was brought to England by Lt John
Enys in 1776 after fighting in the American War of Independence."

Is England still in Ontario?

?? You claimed that some sort of engineering major found it or made
it. It's unclear.

Not sure what beavers have to do with engineering degrees, but I'm
sure you'll enlighten us at some point.

Birch bark, interesting. I'd like to see it.
Around here (Florida) native American dugout canoes are often found
when lakes are drawn down or during dry spells. On Newman Lake near
Gainesville, 80 of them were found (it is alligator paradise so I
expect they were used to hunt gators or catfish). One was found here
in Tallahassee last week (estimated 500 yrs old) when Lake Munson was
drawn down.
