The "Kaloktistos" wall

  The site has not been excavated and there is not enough evidence available concerning its history. The well-built ("kaloktistos") retaining wall, constructed in the so-called Lesbian masonry is dated to the Archaic period. Today it is visible up to the height of around ca.3 m.
  The area was declared an archaeological site in 1960, 1991 and 1992, and more specifically, the fortification wall was declared in 1964 and a group of retaining walls near Kaloktistos, in 1962.
