Dory also means wood shaft. It meant that initially.
So dorydrepano might well meant sicle on long stave-at least to the ancients.
Marines could very well be heavily armed because on board, the battle stops when the last enemy is dead captured or thrown overboard.
Most savage combat takes place in confined spaces and ancient naval fighters were desperate men.

Kind regards
