ACTUA'RIOLUM. Diminutive of ACTUARIUS. A small vessel, or open boat, propelled chiefly by oars, never exceeding eighteen in number; the one which transported Cicero (Ep. ad Att. xvi. 3.) had ten; but they were sometimes assisted by a sail when the wind served. (Scheffer, Mil. Nav. ii. 2.) The example (Actuariolum/1.1) is copied from a miniature in the Vatican Virgil.
