A penteconter, alternatively pentaconter, was a small sea-faring vessel and a type of galley used in the antiquity. Due to their size, they were fast and thus hard to ram.

During the Peloponnesian War penteconters were used by Athenians, Spartans, as well as pirates and Persians.

Behind the scenes

Πεντηκόντορος (pentekontoros) is Greek for 'fifty-oared'.
