A Greek harbor such as Munychia contained a series of shipsheds, arranged on the shore or encircling a cove. Each shed was built to accommodate a warship on dry ground, but it was also used to build ships and maintain them. The ships were pulled from / into the water with ropes and on wooden planks. The warships required a methodical overhaul in dry docks. This was done during the winter months, as there was no navigation during this period. The architecture of the sheds—with their relatively low roofs—meant that the ships were dismasted for their overhauls. The first ship sheds were built in the 6th century BCE. and we know that Pericles built a number of them for a sum of 1,000 talents, which would represent about 150 to 250 million US dollars today. Naval inventories reveal there were 372 shipsheds in the three harbors of the Piraeus during the 4th century BCE.
