Not Mycenean, I'm afraid. It's on the mainland - there's a clue!

Piraeus has been the --- of Athens since Periclean times, when the
so-called long walls, scattered remnants of which can still be seen,
were built to connect it to the city.

To be honest, I don't think it should be necessary to correctly identify all the "missing" words and or phrases which is what I had in mind when I started this off - I only "removed" some words so that the answer was not immediately obvious or "googleable".

I think if you identify the " where" that should be sufficient - what does everyone else think?
