[1] The city of Laurion was famous in classical antiquity for its silver mines (the Laurio mines), one of the main sources of revenues of the Athenian state, which formed the basis for the establishment of the Athenian hegemony on the Aegean Sea. The metallic silver was used above all for the minting of coins. He was famous for the poor treatment of slaves who worked in mines. It was a much less important port than the nearby Piraeus. It is located about 60 km south-east of Athens, south-east of Keratea and north of Cape Sounion. Laurion is located in a bay where the island of Makronisos is located (in ancient times called Helena). The port is positioned in the middle, and grid-like streets cover the residential area. The GR-89 highway crosses Laurio and ends south to Cape Sounion.
