Mark Antony possessed 500 ships and 70,000 infantry, and made his camp at <a href="/wiki/Actium" title="Actium">Actium</a>, and Octavian, with 400 ships and 80,000 infantry, arrived from the north and occupied <a href="/wiki/Patras" title="Patras">Patrae</a> and <a href="/wiki/Corinth" title="Corinth">Corinth</a>, where he managed to cut Antony's southward communications with Egypt (via the <a href="/wiki/Peloponnese" title="Peloponnese">Peloponnese</a>) with help from <a href="/wiki/Marcus_Vipsanius_Agrippa" title="Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa">Marcus Agrippa</a>.

Antony had been the most important and most successful senior officer in Caesar's army (<i><a href="/wiki/Master_of_the_Horse#Magister_Equitum_(Ancient_Rome)" title="Master of the Horse">magister equitum</a></i>) and, thanks to his military record, claimed a substantial share of the political support of Caesar's soldiers and veterans.

When he left Octavia Minor and moved to <a href="/wiki/Alexandria" title="Alexandria">Alexandria</a> to become Cleopatra's official partner, many Roman politicians suspected that he was trying to become the unchecked ruler of Egypt and other eastern kingdoms while still maintaining his command over the many Roman legions in the East.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">&#91;<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

But by the publication of Antony's will, which <a href="/wiki/Plancus" class="mw-redirect" title="Plancus">Lucius Munatius Plancus</a> had put into Octavian's hands, and by carefully letting it be known in Rome what preparations were going on at <a href="/wiki/Samos" title="Samos">Samos</a> and how Antony was effectively acting as the agent of Cleopatra, Octavian produced such a violent outburst of feeling that he easily obtained Antony's deposition from the consulship of 31 BC, for which Antony had been designated. In addition to the deposition, Octavian procured a proclamation of war against Cleopatra. This was well understood to mean against Antony, though he was not named.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84_16-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84-16"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In issuing a war declaration, the Senate deprived Antony of any legal authority. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Battle">Battle</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Actium&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Battle"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Antony initially planned to anticipate an attack by descent upon Italy toward the end of 32 BC; he went as far as <a href="/wiki/Corcyra" class="mw-redirect" title="Corcyra">Corcyra</a>.

The early months passed without any notable events, other than some successful forays by Agrippa along the coasts of Greece, primarily designed to divert Antony's attention. In August, troops landed near Antony's camp on the north side of the strait. Still, Antony could not be tempted out. It took some months for his full strength to arrive from the various places in which his allies or his ships had wintered. During these months Agrippa continued his attacks upon Greek towns along the coast, while Octavian's forces engaged in various successful cavalry skirmishes, so that Antony abandoned the strait's north side between the Ambracian Gulf and the Ionian Sea and confined his soldiers to the southern camp. Cleopatra now advised that garrisons be put into strong towns and that the main fleet return to Alexandria. The large contingent furnished by Egypt gave her advice as much weight as her personal influence over Antony, and it appears that this movement was agreed to.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84_16-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84-16"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Octavian learned of this and debated how to prevent it.

Antony had shown up to Actium with a much larger force of around 500 ships, but could not man all of them. The problem facing Antony was desertion. <a href="/wiki/Plutarch" title="Plutarch">Plutarch</a> and <a href="/wiki/Cassius_Dio" title="Cassius Dio">Dio</a> speak of how desertion and disease plagued Antony's camp. What Antony lacked in quantity was made up for in quality: his ships were mainly the standard Roman warship, <a href="/wiki/Quinquereme" class="mw-redirect" title="Quinquereme">quinqueremes</a> with smaller <a href="/wiki/Quadrireme" class="mw-redirect" title="Quadrireme">quadriremes</a>, heavier and wider than Octavian's, making them ideal weapon platforms. However, due to their larger size, they were less manoeuvrable than Octavian's ships.<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Antony's personal flagship, like his admirals', was a "ten". An "eight" war galley had around 200 heavy marines, archers and at least six ballista catapults. Larger than Octavian's ships, Antony's war galleys were very difficult to board in close combat and his troops were able to rain missiles onto smaller and lower ships. The <a href="/wiki/Harpax" title="Harpax">harpax</a>, Agrippa's device made for grappling and boarding enemy ships, made this task a bit easier. The galleys' bows were armoured with <a href="/wiki/Bronze" title="Bronze">bronze</a> plates and square-cut timbers, making a successful ramming attack with similar equipment difficult. The only way to disable such a ship was to smash its oars, rendering it immobile and isolated from the rest of its fleet. Antony's ships' main weakness was lack of manoeuvrability; such a ship, once isolated from its fleet, could be swamped with boarding attacks. Also, many of his ships were undermanned with rowing crews; there had been a severe malaria outbreak while they were waiting for Octavian's fleet to arrive.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG/220px-Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="120" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG/330px-Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG/440px-Ballistae_on_roman_ship.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1523" data-file-height="828" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Ballista" title="Ballista">Ballistae</a> on a Roman ship</figcaption></figure> <p>Octavian's fleet was largely made up of smaller "<a href="/wiki/Liburna" title="Liburna">Liburnian</a>" vessels.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84_16-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84-16"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> His ships, though smaller, were still manageable in the heavy surf and could outmanoeuvre Antony's ships, get in close, attack the above-deck crew with arrows and ballista-launched stones, and retreat.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Moreover, his crews were better-trained, professional, well-fed and rested.

With many oarsmen dead or unfit to serve, the powerful, head-on ramming tactic for which the Octaries had been designed was now impossible. Antony transferred to a smaller vessel with his flag and managed to escape, taking a few ships with him as an escort to help break through Octavian's lines. Those left behind were captured or sunk. </p><p>J. M. Carter gives a differing account of the battle. He postulates that Antony knew he was surrounded and had nowhere to run. To turn this to his advantage, he gathered his ships around him in a quasi-horseshoe formation, staying close to the shore for safety. Then, should Octavian's ships approach his, the sea would push them into the shore. Antony foresaw that he would not be able to defeat Octavian's forces, so he and Cleopatra stayed in the rear of the formation. Eventually Antony sent the ships on the northern part of the formation to attack. He had them move out to the north, spreading out Octavian's ships, which until this point were tightly arranged. He sent Sosius to spread the remaining ships to the south. This left a hole in the middle of Octavian's formation. Antony seized the opportunity and, with Cleopatra on her ship and him on a different ship, sped through the gap and escaped, abandoning his entire force. </p><p>With the end of the battle, Octavian exerted himself to save the crews of the burning vessels and spent the whole night on board. The next day, as much of the land army had not escaped to their own lands, submitted, or were followed in their retreat to Macedonia and forced to surrender, Antony's camp was occupied, bringing an end to the war.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84_16-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEShuckburgh1917780–84-16"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Alternative_theories">Alternative theories</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Actium&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Alternative theories"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Scientists researching the "<a href="/wiki/Dead_water" title="Dead water">dead water</a>" phenomenon are investigating whether the Egyptian fleet may have been trapped in dead water, which can substantially reduce the speed of a ship.<sup id="cite_ref-28" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-28"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>28<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-29"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Aftermath">Aftermath</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Actium&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: Aftermath"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/Death_of_Cleopatra" title="Death of Cleopatra">Death of Cleopatra</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Cleopatra_VII,_marble,_Vatican_Museums,_Pius-Clementine_Museum,_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Cleopatra_VII%2C_marble%2C_Vatican_Museums%2C_Pius-Clementine_Museum%2C_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg/220px-Cleopatra_VII%2C_marble%2C_Vatican_Museums%2C_Pius-Clementine_Museum%2C_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="314" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Cleopatra_VII%2C_marble%2C_Vatican_Museums%2C_Pius-Clementine_Museum%2C_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg/330px-Cleopatra_VII%2C_marble%2C_Vatican_Museums%2C_Pius-Clementine_Museum%2C_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Cleopatra_VII%2C_marble%2C_Vatican_Museums%2C_Pius-Clementine_Museum%2C_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg/440px-Cleopatra_VII%2C_marble%2C_Vatican_Museums%2C_Pius-Clementine_Museum%2C_Room_of_the_Greek_Cross_2.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1240" data-file-height="1768" /></a><figcaption>A (restructured) <a href="/wiki/Roman_sculpture" title="Roman sculpture">Roman statue</a> of <a href="/wiki/Cleopatra" title="Cleopatra">Cleopatra</a> wearing a <a href="/wiki/Diadem" title="Diadem">diadem</a> and <a href="/wiki/Greco-Roman_hairstyle" title="Greco-Roman hairstyle">'melon' hairstyle</a> similar to <a href="/wiki/Ptolemaic_coinage" title="Ptolemaic coinage">coinage portraits</a>, marble, found near the <a href="https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomba_di_Nerone" class="extiw" title="it:Tomba di Nerone">Tomba di Nerone</a>, Rome along the <a href="/wiki/Via_Cassia" title="Via Cassia">Via Cassia</a>, <a href="/wiki/Museo_Pio-Clementino" class="mw-redirect" title="Museo Pio-Clementino">Museo Pio-Clementino</a><sup id="cite_ref-30" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-30"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>30<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-31" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-31"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>31<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>32<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></figcaption></figure> <p>The battle had extensive political consequences.
