Last update: Mar 4, 2025

This photo from 1882-1890 shows the workers of the Société Internationale du Canal Maritime de Corinthe (Greece) in the process of carrying out the earthwork. We see that there are lots of workers, as the work mobilised up to 2000 people spread over the 4 jobsites on Isthmus of Corinth.
