The Kechrias

The Kechrias was a pirate trireme sailing the Aegean Sea near the island of Chios 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 Kechrias and his companions in battle, and sank it. Kassandra claimed the sail and finery of Kechrias for her own.[1]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • The ship was named after Cechrias, a son of the god Poseidon, who gave his name to the port of Kechries.
  • Despite the name of the ship, her sails and finery bore the image of the mythical Hydra.
