The ship pictured is a Trireme, a warship
The article suggests that the ship found was a trade vessel

In those days if you were weaker then your potential customer you traded, if you were stronger a nice sack & pillage might be in order.
In those I doubt vessels were that specialized.

That was the illustration in the article; I lifted a caption for it out of the article itself explaining it.
