they were brilliant in making ships that were quite different from the anient galleys used during the Trojan war. their ships could be controlled or steered by thought. the ruler of phaeacia was Alkinoos. the phaeacians carried Rhadamanthus to Euboea, the furthest of any place, and came back in the same day. Homer describes their ships as a falcon.
