I agree completely that most Greek and Roman merchant ships were sailing ships, not galleys, for the reasons given. To be honest, my information about merchant galleys comes from a novel, and the author may have been wrong.he sailors, who usually did not row, were also free volunteers. OTOH, merchant galleys, which were owned by civilians, used slave rowers. Slaves were plentiful in Greek, and especially Roman, times and relatively inexpensive to buy.
Ancient Rome. To the ancient Romans, Venus wasn't a planet but a celestial body: she was the goddess of love and beauty. The Romans built an empire of gigantic proportions. At its height, it encompassed nearly the entire European continent as well as parts of the Middle East and Africa. The Roman Empire's tentacles stretched from England to Egypt, from Spain to Iraq, and from southern Russia to Morocco. More significantly, ancient Roman civilization thrived for nearly one thousand years.
