I agree completely that most Greek and Roman merchant ships were sailing ships, not galleys, for the reasons given. To be honest, my information about merchant galleys comes from a novel, and the author may have been wrong.he sailors, who usually did not row, were also free volunteers. OTOH, merchant galleys, which were owned by civilians, used slave rowers. Slaves were plentiful in Greek, and especially Roman, times and relatively inexpensive to buy.
When considering the context of the American Slave trade in Cereno the first thing to keep in mind is that Cereno's ship, the San Dominick, is a slave ship.Cereno describes his ship as having a few hundred slaves on board when it embarked on its journey.e allows his slaves to remain above deck. The fact that the slaves still revolt-and gladly, as Melville is careful to emphasize-shows that this attempt to mitigate the slaves' inescapably miserable condition does not work. One cannot be a happy slave in Melville's story.
