Uniquely accessible for a private experience, Iassos resonates with a special energy, having been a human settlement since the Early Bronze Age, with its earliest relics dating back to the Chalcolithic and possibly even the Neolithic Era.
The site features a temple dedicated to Artemis, the goddess revered for her association with the hunt, wilderness, nature, and childbirth. In later traditions, Artemis was linked to Selene, embodying the Moon, and depicted roaming forests and mountains, surrounded by her nymph entourage.
