ROMAN MERCHANTMAN
Dating
from before the time of Christ and remaining in use
for several centuries after, the merchant ships of
the Roman Empire represented an important stage in
the evolution of the cargo ship. Roman cargo
ships demonstrated great uniformity in their design.
With the high level of maritime commerce within the
Empire, innovations and improvements were quickly
shared and disseminated within the ship industry.
Some of these vessels
were very large, up to 180 feet long, like the ones
used for carrying grain from the fertile Nile valley
to Rome depicted in the photos below.
