Triremes I think...it is in the polybius book about Scipio and the carthaginian/punic wars. Also mentioned in Adrain Goldworthies 'Hannibal'. IIRC, mind you could have been quincs too, but pretty sure it was a trireme.

Take it easy guys. He's had his talk and hasn't actually plugged his website since. And if y'all simply stopped responding with answers that, errrmmm, fit this thread perfectly (catch my drift? :twisted: ), it'd disappear downrange quite soon.

Here is an interesting question I would like to have answered: why is this thread in "Roman Military History & Archaeology"? Let's move it to "Off-topic", and have lots of fun with our new Topic Without Qualities.
