Piraeus Port handled 3.67 million TEUs in 2016 (2015: about 3.32 million).According to Lloyd's list for top 100 container ports in 2015 Piraeus Port ranked 8th in Europe and 3rd the Mediterranean sea. Until the 3rd millennium BC, Piraeus Port was a rocky island connected to the mainland by a low-lying stretch of land that was flooded with sea water most of the year. It was then that the area was increasingly silted and flooding ceased, thus permanently connecting Piraeus Port to Attica and forming its ports, the main port of Cantharus and the two smaller of Zea and Munichia. In 2000 , Themistocles initiated the fortifications of Piraeus and later advised the Athenians to take advantage of its natural harbourer harbour of Phaleron and it was transferred to Piraeus, distinguishing itself at the battle of Salamis between the Greek city-states and the Persians in 480 BC. In the following years Themistocles initiated the construction of the port and created the ship sheds (neosoikoi), while the Themistoclean Walls were completed in 471 BC, turning Piraeus into a great military and commercial harbour, which served as the permanent navy base for the mighty Athenian fleet.
