According to Government Gazette No.161 B of 1995, the location shown on the map is considered an archaeological site. That decision was taken to preserve the remains of two ancient temples where today, on top of them are built two churches, the remains of a Roman aqueduct, and the remains of an ancient, proto-Cycladic settlement and cemetery.[1]
