"Arrow ship. Good against close-combat ships. Can transport units."
In-game description

The Lost Ship is an Egyptian ship and counterpart to the Minion in Age of Mythology. They can only be created when the Ancestors god power is invoked on water. This causes 13 ships to rise from the abyss to fight for the player's cause for 1 minute, after which they sink back into the water. Unlike the Minions, they do not benefit from the effects of the Eclipse God Power. As archer ships, they benefit from technologies which affect them. Despite looking like ruined Kebenits, not only do they not have an attack bonus vs. Fishing Ships, they cannot even attack Fishing Ships, nor buildings.
