Ark of bulrushes

The ark of bulrushes (Hebrew: תבת גמא, romanized: têḇaṯ gōme) was a container which, according to the episode known as the finding of Moses in the biblical Book of Exodus, carried the infant Moses.

The ark, containing the three-month-old baby Moses, was placed in reeds by the river bank^[1] (presumably the Nile) to protect him from the Egyptian mandate to drown every male Hebrew child,^[2] and discovered there by Pharaoh's daughter.
