In 1862, a small bronze statue of an Attic trireme was discovered within the Erechtheion. The hollow body of the vessel was designed to hold oil, with a wick placed at the opening at the bow where the flame would burn.

An inscription engraved along the left side of the ship dates to the late 5th century BC and identifies the object as a dedication to Athena, bearing the words HOLY OF ATHENS.

This lamp represented the naval strength of Athens and their protector of the city, Athena.
