By the middle of the Age of Rebirth, oar-powered vessels had all but disappeared from the world's oceans, to be replaced by sailing vessels of various types. The galleon was one such vessel. Galleons were three- or four-masted ships, built high in both the forecastle and the stern. These versatile ships were mainly used as cargo vessels, although they were sometimes outfitted as light warships as well.
