- 1Ancient harbour of Samos
Historic Site
The ancient harbour of Samos was located at the town of Samos (modern Pythagoreio) on the island of Samos. It consisted of a large mole, which was identified in the fifth century BC ancient Greek historian Herodotus as one of three greatest feats of engineering in the Greek world. Large parts of the ancient mole seem to survive, partially incorporated into the modern mole, but these remains are very difficult to date.
