A drawing depicting the carving of a ship from the quarries of Alyki. Although this is a sketchy unfinished carving, which does not allow reliable conclusions, we could assume that the hollow shape and the deep water immersion, which gives sailing stability and low speed movement, are realistic characteristics of the ships used for transporting marble bulks from the quarries of Alyki. The mooring ropes of the load and the rudder of the ship might be depicted too.
