KASOS > HISTORY
HISTORY
As with all the Dodecanese islands, Kasos has a significant history. According to archaeological finds in Ellinokamara Cave, Kasos has been inhabited since prehistoric times.
The Kares are believed to have been the first settlers on the island.
In ancient times the island developed in trade and the sea.
It participated in the war against Troy while during classic times it belonged to the Athenaeum Partnership.
Kasos followed the same fate as the other Dodecanese islands. It knew many conquerors, catastrophes and Roman, Byzantine and Venetian domination of the island.
The residents of Kasos took part in the Revolution of 1821 and, as the naval force of that time, offered their fleet to the war effort. The worst page in the island’s history was written then. On 7th of June 1824, the Turks burnt Kasos to the ground and killed the island population.
Only a few managed to escape this tremendous holocaust. It was these people and some emigrants that built the island once again. Every year on the anniversary of holocaust, events are organized in remembrance of it. In 1912 Kasos came under Italian control.
Incorporation of Kasos with Greece was in 1948, along with the rest of the Dodecanese islands.
