hello dear, I'm so glad that you like the picture.
I think quinquirieme refers to how many ranks of rowers - 5 in this case .............. but unless we can find anyone that actually sailed on one - we're all none the wiser
As for the crew - no sign of them @!@
This is my new build for SL ....home..... 
It's something I've always wanted to create, and finally got around to doing it. It's not on sim level yet as I'm still figuring out the landscaping. Once it's 'downstairs' the water there will be much, much better

Google is my friend 
...........and yes you'll be seeing more of Hestium in the future. If I can get down to work and stop gazing around and fiddling with the lighting whenever I'm there that is - I think I'm in SLurrrrrve
I added a formal garden yesterday, and moved a build I'd planned for the Garden of The Hesperides onto the plot too - all's looking quite cosy there. xx

Great architecture and I also like the boat shadow, it looks like a bird, adding a symbolic fearture to the scene!

This image invokes the impression of an oasis, one in the water instead of land. I love the words that accompany this image, very beautiful.
