History
Ancient ship designers tried numerous tricks to get more power for warships, including putting more men on single oars. The most successful design was the trireme, three tiers of single rowers per side. This ship provided reasonable maneuverability and speed. It appeared around 600 BC and made up the bulk of Mediterranean navies for several hundred years after 500 BC.
