Abstract: Abstract The port of Piraeus, is an inextricable influential factor both for the Athenian community and for the Mediterranean societies since the ancient times, up until todays globalized societies thanks to its geographic location. The content of this research is conducted in line with a wide spectrum of management via retrospect research. The operation and the management of a port establishment influences all aspects of the community in which the port operates. Its spatial planning, the services it provides, its adjustment to challenges of the times, have direct impact and cultural significance, not only in the local community, but also in the broader maritime lines of communication, in which the port is integrated. In our research, we conclude that management wise, there aren’t many differences between antiquity and modern times, besides cruises and touristic expeditions in the port of Piraeus whose function for 2500 years has been an operational prototype beneficial for modern port industry.
