Zagora 10th-8th Centuries B.C.

The peninsula of Zagora can reached with a 45 minute walk along the footpath which starts at Stavropeda. Life at the settlement of Zagora began in the 10th century BC and continued until the end of the 8th century BC. The settlement was protected by a strong wall, 3 m in height and 2 m - 4.80 m in thickness. Inside the community was a sanctum founded in the 8th century BC and used until the classical times, even though the locality had been abandoned. The findings from the excavation of this site can be found at the Archaeological Museum in Hora.
