ABOUT

In 1955, Nikolaos Platon conducted excavations in the area before the inclusion of the settlement of Zou in the Municipality of Sitia. There, one encounters the ruins of a Minoan farmhouse.

The building, dating back to the Middle Minoan period, was likely two-storey and comprised over 30 rooms. In close proximity to the farmhouse, a burial cave was discovered, dating back to the Middle Minoan IIIb-Late Minoan era.
