cogs Explanation: "Imbarcazioni e navi del Medioevo" Nel Nord vennero adottate in particolare le sovrastrutture, mentre i costruttori del Sud svilupparono un tipo di nave che sarà nota con il nome di Cocca. Questo modello poi si diffuse dal Mediterraneo al Baltico con il nome di Cogghe. La carena della nave, che aveva uno scafo tondeggiante, si restringeva in ciascuna estremità. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cog_(ship) https://tinyurl.com/359j6nyt Chapter 2 "The Round Ships" |
