Ancient Greek warship with three banks of oars (7)

I believe the answer is:

trireme

(Other definitions for trireme that I've seen before include "Roman/Greek galley" , "Long rowing boat" , "Ancient rowed ship" , "Oar-driven battleship of classical times" , "Ancient vessel with three banks of oars on each side" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
