Deodoro, also known as Marshal Deodoro,[2] was a coastal defense ship built for the Brazilian Navy at the end of the nineteenth century. It was the lead ship of its class, alongside Floriano. Deodoro was one of several ships to rebel in the 1910 Revolt of the Lash, and it was used for neutrality patrols during the First World War.
