Actually almost all of the people in ancient Egypt lived in the Nile river delta, because of the fertile soil. As such they mostly used boats to transport things up and down the river. They also used a lot of ships for trading with other lands along the Mediterranean coast. For smaller local transport carts were used, as they didn’t live in a desert environment, but instead in a lush agricultural land.
They did not need it for transport. They had camels. Much more useful in a sandy desert.

Well that explains the desertification I guess.

Camels were not introduced to Egypt until the Persians invaded in 525 BCE.
They dragged things on sledges with someone wetting the sand in front of them.
We have no doubt about that.
