The plaque on a pier at the Arsenal that mentions a Galleon for the first time dates back to 1531: this was a hybrid vessel, equipped both with sails and oars, showing its kinship with the smaller "galleys" by way of a long spur set in the "prow" of the galleon, which over time lost its original offensive function and became a platform from which to maneuver the sails.
