A whole fortified city of 300 acres is preserved that is dated from the 4th century until the 1st century BC. The fortification walls are preserved in all their length and in many places they are 9m high. The island, based on epigraphic sources and archaeological evidence, participated in the piratical activity the Cretan cities had developed during the Hellenistic period. The city was destroyed during the Roman campaign “against piracy” in 69-67 BC.
