::Since its basicly the only armed ship in the fleet (apart from Galactica and Pegasus) and a picture on a forum website with pictures of the escape from New Caprica in Lay Down Your Burdens, Part 2 showed what appears to be a Colonial Defender (from games and also appeared in "Flesh and Bone") my ownly conclusion can be that it was the Adriatic.--[[User:CoreyDanian|CoreyDanian]] October 2006

== Modern Name ==
Why exactly is Adriatic a name derived from modern Times? The Adriatic Sea is named after an etruscan colony and the name is used at least since the 5th Century BC. The Name is found in works of Herodotus or Euripides. And since the Adriatic borders the greek Homeland, it shouldn't be improbable that it's mentioned somewhere in colonial religous writings.

:I agree with Natanael. While the White Star Line's Adriatic probably contributed to using the name on the show, the word itself is NOT a modern neologism (Cf. Cloud Nine, which is). The wikipedia link provided even discusses the ancient etymology of the name. [[User:Albelicious|Albelicious]] 01:51, 22 August 2011 (EDT)
