Framed Print of Greek Fire, Medieval Weaponry
Byzantine sailors pour Greek fire from bow nozzle at enemy. Greek fire was an incendiary weapon used by the Byzantine Empire in naval battles to great effect as it could continue burning while floating on water. It is said to have been invented by a Syrian engineer, named Callinicus, in the seventh century (673 AD). The secret behind the Greek fire was handed down from one emperor to the next for centuries. Rumors about its composition include such chemicals as liquid petroleum, naphtha, burning pitch, sulphur, resin, quicklime and bitumen, along with some other "secret ingredient". The exact composition, however, remains unknown. Synopsis of Histories by John Skylitzes, 12th century. © New York Public Library / Science Source
