Kondura (ship)
Kondura or Condura (Greek: κονδοῦρα[1]) was a type of ship used on the eastern shores of the Adriatic.It is first mentioned and described in the 10th century as part of the medieval Croatian navy.It is also mentioned in the 14th century as a type of ship used by the Republic of Ragusa.The etymology of its name is uncertain, it could be a portmanteau word between the verb dondolare (to rock gently) and the Middle Age Greek kondura, short-tailed boat - ancient gondolas, indeed, had a less soaring stern than today's ones - or maybe from Latin cunula, rocking crib.[4] This article about a specific civilian ship or boat is a stub.
