Ships, Sailing, Maritime / Histoire maritime de Gênes du XVIIe siècle
Italian term or phrase: cavallaro
Al Magistrato dell’arsenale spettava poi il compito di nominare il « soprastante », una sorta di direttore tecnico, che aveva il compito di gestire il magazzino dei materiali e soprattutto di armonizzare e controllare il lavoro di tutti gli operai che si recavano a lavorare in arsenale.
Al servizio del soprastante, infine, vi era uno specifico cancelliere e un « cavallaro », destinato a fungere da corriere porta-ordini lungo le Riviere.
