The ancient Greeks and Romans developed more sophisticated designs with iron flukes that could dig into the seabed, establishing principles still used in modern anchor design. The major breakthrough came in the early 19th century when British inventors developed the stockless anchor, which could be easily stored and deployed from a ship’s hawse pipe. This innovation revolutionized maritime commerce by making anchors more practical for larger vessels.
