fuego griego 20
Incendiary weapon of the Greeks of the Byzantine Empire that they threw against the enemy ships burning them irretrievably. Although the formula was secret, it is believed that the mixture consisted of petroleum, quicklime, sulfur, saltpeter and resins. Quicklime in contact with water would perhaps be the incendiary spark.
