Nauarchus

（ναύαρχος, “commander of a ship”). The Spartan term for the commander of the fleet, chosen for one year; also a general term for the captain of a ship, and regularly so used in the fleets of the Roman Empire (Veget. iv. 32, 43). At Athens the name was used only of the commander of the sacred triremes. See Theoris.
