The Nauplios was a pirate trireme sailing the Aegean Sea south of Paros Island with lesser pirate vessels during the 5th century BCE.
During the Peloponnesian War the Adrestia, commanded by the Spartan misthios Kassandra and captained by Barnabas, engaged the Nauplios and his companions in battle, and sank it. Kassandra claimed the sail and finery of Nauplios for her own.[1]
