maybe he's judging from his period,however he's describing a trireme's crew and for example Plato is talking about a sickle spear used by an Athenian hoplomachos on a trireme.The result was that the weapon stuck somewhere and the hoplomachos nearly died trying to retrieve it while the enemy were attacking :lol: .I don't know about iron hands.I thought I'd heard them somewhere,probably Thucydides?Or maybe i'm confusing them with the "dolfins" or something?
