Easton's Bible Dictionary
(Gr. artemon), answering to the modern "mizzen-sail," as some suppose. Others understand the "jib," near the prow, or the "fore-sail," as likely to be most useful in bringing a ship's head to the wind in the circumstances described (Acts 27:40).

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
(n.) The principal sail in a ship or other vessel.
