Byzantine navy

Portion used

all

Low resolution?

slightly reduced, sufficient to make out major features

Purpose of use

to illustrate the article by providing an expert scholarly opinion of how the ships used by the Byzantines looked, the complex shapes and designs of the vessel are near impossible to be conveyed with words alone.

Replaceable?

No, there is no exact representation of these ancient ships. Exact drawings through studies and research are conjectural.[1] Any self-made sketches based on these theories and diagrams would be derivative.
