Traces of Ancients
The archaeological findings on the island are scarce. It makes the local heritage of the past even more unique. The rigid & mountainous landscape of the island pushed the dwellers to build underground constructions.

Researchers say it is an underground water reservoir made by the Romans to sustain their seaside settlements. The inner space is surrounded by huge blocks of sandstone & supported by columns. It is an unexplored & unique site.

Poseidon Temple
A very rare rock-carved temple. Barely visible bas-relief ornaments outside & inside give an idea of the construction's age. Although poorly preserved, it is a unique site in its original form.
