Autor obrađuje pomorski aspekt križarskog pohoda kralja Andrije II. Naglasak je dan na problematici tipološkog određenja brodova kojima su križari prevezeni, a manjim se dijelom autor osvrće i na razvoj brodova do tog doba i na brodsku ikonografiju. ; In an article divided into seven section: War Campaigns, Transport by Ships, Development of Ships, Andria’s Campaign, Contracted Ships, Iconography, The Split Harbour, supported by numerous evidence, a hypothesis is put forward concerning the kind of ships which transported the crusaders of the Hungarian and Croatian king Andria.

During the 12th century its capacity was 200t while later examples reach up to 500t. Its subclass was a ship for the transportation of horses called after the French huissier or in Italian usciere. The Hungarian and Croatian king Andria II collected his army in the summer of 1217 and arrived with it in the city of Split.

Going by the evidence of the earlier, Fourth campaign in 1202, these ships were “navas” and huissiers. Although it is not listed, other ships could have been “barkozis” and “banzonis” because such ... |
