Caligula's "Giant Ship", also known as the "Round Ship", was a very large barge, the ruins of which were found during the construction of Rome's Leonardo da Vinci International Airport in Fiumicino, Italy. This was previously a Roman port a few kilometres north of Ostia at the mouth of the Tiber River. The ship was dated to c. 37 AD using dendrochronological dating methods. This Roman barge had a length of between 95 and 104 metres (312 and 341 ft) and a beam of about 20.3 metres (67 ft). It was six decks high, displaced a minimum of 7,400 tons, and carried a crew of 700–800.
