Duilius ordered the construction of 120 ships equipped with hook bridges called Corvus, which means "crow". This innovation allowed the Romans to defeat Carthage's powerful enemy fleet and turn the sea war into close fighting.

Following the victory against the Carthaginians in the Battle of Mylae in 260 BC, Duilius was honored with a victory parade and the planting of a column adorned with the beaks of the Carthage warships seized in the Roman Forum; The column has become a symbol of its symbol and is on the ship's coat of arms today.
