Algunos de los barcos eran sólidos quinquerremes con grandes quillas de bronce que hendían el agua; algunos eran cuadrirremes y trirremes, todos con afiladas quillas; pero más o menos la mitad de ellos eran naves mucho menores, demasiado bajas para aventurarse a viajar por el mar. Éstas, supuso, eran las embarcaciones de aduanas que patrullaban las siete desembocaduras del río Nilo.
