It is interesting to see the diversity of rams on the front of these prows. Quite wide ranging in
style and development. Some such as the Akarnanian example I have posted above bear double rams, one below/at the waterline and one above the waterline. Some are plain, purely functional (generally below waterline examples) and some are ornamented, as with the lion's
head on the above waterline ram on the Akarnanian prow.
