Ancona comes from the Greek word Ankon which means elbow for its shape as a peninsula.

The Dori a Greek population from Sicily, founded Ancona in 387 BC, they stopped in this place for the possibility that the natural harbour offered.

The heart of the town is the port as well as Colle Guasco a hill in front of the Port.
