A new method for examining maritime mobility of direct crossings with contrary prevailing winds in the Mediterranean during antiquity

David Gal et al.

Summary: The study uses detailed meteorological data and sailing software to examine the maritime mobility of single-masted square sail Mediterranean merchantmen in the Graeco-Roman period, focusing on sailing routes against the prevailing wind. High-resolution climatological data is found to reveal crucial wind variabilities and patterns for mobility. The method generates a large set of simulated sailing outcomes, providing deeper insights into the decision-making of early mariners regarding timing of actions.
