ARCHAEOLOGY Archaeology Kythnos Island Cyclades Greece

According to archaeological & anthropological findings, the island has been inhabited since the 8th millennium B.C.

Recent paleontologic discoveries at Maroulas , near to today’s Loutra, found traces of 4 tombs of the middle Stone Period, a fact that suggests that this was the most ancient inhabitation of people in the Cyclades islands.

The existence of 20 circular constructions made out of cleft stones was also uncovered in the area of Skouries, which surrounded mining kilns as well as a copper mine located in cape Jouli, which dates back to the first Cycladic period.
