ANCIENT WAR SHIPS.
Large Vessels of the Egyptians, Phosni.
clans and Greeks.


The inventions of the Alexandrian
age were both numerous and varied.
Under the Ptolemaic kings of Egypt
ships were built of lengths varying
from 312 TO 420 feet, the latter carry
ing 1000 rowers, 400 sailors and 1850
soldiers, altogether more than 1000 per-
sons in one vessel. Demosthenes men
tons a merchant ship which, besides
{,he cargo, slaves and crew, carried
more than 800 freemen as passengers
sBoackt, 69). Archimedes built a ship
for Hero, of Syracuse, which was pro-
visled with dining rooms, galleries,
gardens, fish ponds, stables, mills,
baths, eight large towers and an engine
fer hurting stones of 800 pounds weight
and spears thirty-six feet. long. Its
decks were inlaid with scenes from the
niad, and it contained temple of We
nus and other wonders. Although this
huge vessel may have been more use
Sul as pleasure boat than a man-of-
war, yet the Greeks of this age con-
structed fighting ships of scarcely less
gigantic dimensions. Not only this,
but they accomplished in them the
most distant voyages. That of Pytheas
to the Baltic has been already men,
toned. They also sent ships to the In
dies, and several around the Cape of
Good Hope. which, after having made
the voyage from the coast of Spain,
were found wrecked on the shores Of
Arabia. Eudoxus also made the same
voyage, though in the opposite direc-
ton. However, this feat had already
been performed by the Phoenicians I'M
der Pharaoh Necho, 611-605 B. G., and
by the Carthaginians under Hanno.
The art of sailing on a bowline, or
against the wind" if not also antici-
pated by the Phoenicians, belongs to
the Alexandrian age. The invention
of an inclosed basin or dock, for ships,
is also of the same age. Philon con-
structed one at Athens, which har-
bored 1000 ships. The Maritime Code
and the Colossus of Rhodes were Of
the same age.-Scientific American.
