When did it start being spelled that way? I don’t recall it ever being anything but ‘Piraeus’ in English.
I thought it was Piraeus as well, “Where worn-out ships go to die.”
I performed a Web search for “Piraesus”, and it turned up a link to a discussion of the Piraesus Rail Museum. As a matter of a citation, here is the link
: Piraesus Rail Museum - Trains Magazine - Trains News Wire, Railroad News, Railroad Industry News, Web Cams, and Forms
So Piraesus must be a place name [*-)]
