Definition
Plural of dromon; Byzantine warships or swift galleys used in military and naval operations.
Etymology
Plural of dromon from Greek dromos; the standard form used in Byzantine historical texts and Greek contexts.
Kelly Says
Byzantine dromons were so advanced they had siphons that sprayed 'Greek fire'—the ancient equivalent of flamethrowers—making them nearly unbeatable in naval combat!
