The shape of the individual planks generates the shape of the hull. In the Roman-occupied parts of Northern Europe, the Romano-Celtic tradition involved flush-planking that was not joined with mortise and tenon joints but was connected by framing elements. (This may be a building tradition that continued with the bottom planking of the medieval <a href="/wiki/Cog_(ship)" title="Cog (ship)">cog</a> and then into the Dutch bottom-based building methods of the 17th century.) The Romano-Celtic method of construction is also a shell-first technique, in that the hull shape is dictated by the shaping of the planks, not by the underlying framing of the finished hull.<sup id="cite_ref-Adams_2013_5-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Adams_2013-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Location: ch 4">&#58;&#8202;ch 4&#8202;</span></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Origins_of_clinker">Origins of clinker</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Clinker_(boat_building)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Origins of clinker"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>There are precursors of clinker construction.

At the same time, Northern European cogs were voyaging into the Mediterranean. The two maritime technological traditions had differences beyond the hull construction methods. Mediterranean ships were carvel-built, <a href="/wiki/Lateen" title="Lateen">lateen</a> rigged (using more than one mast on larger vessels) and still used side rudders. The visiting cogs had a single <a href="/wiki/Square_rig" title="Square rig">square-rigged</a> mast, a stern-post mounted pintle-and-gudgeon rudder and clinker sides. As part of the process of <a href="/wiki/Ship#carvel_to_N_Europe" title="Ship">merging these two sets of traditions</a>, carvel-built ships started to arrive in Northern waters. They were soon followed by shipwrights with the skills to build in carvel construction, with the first being built in this region in the late 1430s. The change is still not well understood. The frames of carvel could be made stronger to support the weight of the guns that ships were starting to carry and allowed gun-ports to be cut in the hull. Carvel construction may have solved the shortage of large cleft oak planks from which to make larger clinker vessels.<sup id="cite_ref-Adams_2013_5-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Adams_2013-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page: 50, 58-60, 69-72">&#58;&#8202;50, 58-60, 69-72&#8202;</span></sup> Despite the large-scale move over to carvel construction for large vessels, clinker construction remained prominent throughout Northern Europe. </p><p>The Nordic clinker boat tradition was inscribed to the <a href="/wiki/UNESCO_Intangible_Cultural_Heritage_Lists" title="UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists">UNESCO List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage</a> on December 14, 2021, as the first joint Nordic application to the list.<sup id="cite_ref-UNESCO_2021_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-UNESCO_2021-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 155px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 150px; height: 150px;"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Nydamboat.2.jpg" class="mw-file-description" title="Clinker hull of the Nydam Boat from Jutland.[citation needed]"><img alt="Clinker hull of the Nydam Boat from Jutland.[citation needed]" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Nydamboat.2.jpg/120px-Nydamboat.2.jpg" decoding="async" width="120" height="80" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Nydamboat.2.jpg/180px-Nydamboat.2.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Nydamboat.2.jpg/240px-Nydamboat.2.jpg 2x" data-file-width="640" data-file-height="426" /></a></span></div> <div class="gallerytext">Clinker hull of the <a href="/wiki/Nydam_Boat" class="mw-redirect" title="Nydam Boat">Nydam Boat</a> from <a href="/wiki/Jutland" title="Jutland">Jutland</a>.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">&#91;<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

New boats in classes of racing dinghy with clinker hulls were built as glued clinker boats. The basic construction was the same as before, but they were built with decks of <a href="/wiki/Plywood" title="Plywood">ply</a> planking, and the lands were glued with no fastenings, except that the ends and garboards were still screwed to the apron and hog. Since plywood would not split, no timbers were used.

In all other areas of construction, including framing, deck, etc., clinker is as capable as carvel. Clinker construction remains to this day a valuable method of construction for small wooden vessels.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">&#91;<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

These two styles originate from increasing change in the details of clinker construction, starting from the 13th century onwards, but with the traditional remaining in use in the Northern part of Scandinavia, where there was limited urbanisation and little trade to continental Europe. Conversely, the modern tradition adopted ship-building practices that were influenced by contact from outside Scandinavia.
