Mongol shippixianai 3
Mongol Ship

This 3D model shows a Mongol invasion ship as depicted in 13th-century Japanese scrolls. The vessels combined Chinese-style hulls with large, reinforced sails, and could transport troops, horses, and supplies. Contemporary accounts describe over 1,500 ships assembling for the invasions, many ultimately lost to storms and combat.
