THE GREEK TRIREME WAS THE UBIQUITOUS WARSHIP IN THE MEDITERRANEAN IN CA. 6TH - 4TH CENTURY B.C. IT DEV'D FROM THE AEGEAN LONG SHIP WHICH WAS ROWED BY OARSMEN ON 2 LEVELS, & HAD SAME UPSWEPT STERN & (PRESUMABLY)SQUARE SAIL AS ITS PREDECESSOR. THE TRIREME'S RAM WAS A FURTHER DEV'T OF THE LONGSHIP'S FOREFOOT PROJECTION. LONG, SHALLOW HULL WAS NECESSARY IN ORDER TO ENSURE GUNWALE TENSILE STRENGTH SUITABLE FOR THE 3 ROWS OF OARSMEN. OTHER FACTORS WHICH CONTRIBUTED TO HULL STRENGTH NECESSARY IN SUCH A VESSEL, WAS THE "HYPOZOMA"-ACTING SAME AS A HOGGING TRUSS, AS WELL AS EMPLOYMENT OF LONG TIMBERS WITH MORTISE & TENON JOINING. IN ADDITION TO ITS STRENGTH, POPULARITY OF THE TRIREME WAS PROBABLY DUE TO ITS SPEED, MANOUEVRABILITY & LIGHTNESS.
