Nature Park Proposal: Phaliriko Delta - Athens - in Maps
 |
April 2015
Most European capitals have a treasure trove of maps—old maps—documents of dramatic landscape changes. We have such good documentation in the Delta area of Kifissos and Ilissos. There is a swamp here, which has been a favorite hunting ground for hunters and naturalists since ancient times.
I will be posting a few maps here, as well as some modern maps.
 |
| 1785: Large wetland in the delta of the Kifis and Ilisos rivers in the Gulf of Phaleron. Then Athens was a village. |
 |
| Late 18th century: note the description of the "Falerum swamp" in the Faleriki Delta region. |
 |
| A map from the late 19th century shows Phaleron Bay with the Kifissos River, extensive coastal wetlands and dunes. |
 |
| Google Earth map (last photo) with a red line showing the route to the area (in Saint-Bourdakis) |
 |
| Plans for the Moscato Beach City Park project. The idea was to build a multi-use park with expensive features (pools, paths, lots of concrete). |
 |
| Rivers of Athens. The map shows which are still open (dark) and which are completely closed (light lines). Publisher unknown. |
