Rafina–Pikermi: The Long History of the Place

A long journey through time—beginning with paleontological evidence and continuing through prehistoric and historical periods, the Byzantine era, the Latin rule, Ottoman domination, and the Greek War of Independence—unfolds in the pages of this book. It proceeds with the emergence of modern Rafina, the Second World War, and the Greek Civil War, reaching the present day with the formation of the Attican municipality and its local administrative structures.
The Municipality of Rafina–Pikermi presents a panorama of images of its “territory” across time—a reference work for the people of the region, its visitors, and researchers of the history of northeastern Attica, as well as for anyone interested in local history and in understanding the broader course of history that it reflects.
