SANTORINI PRIVATE TOURS
- ANCIENT THIRA TOUR

Santorini Ancient Thira Private Tours
Ancient Thera Description
The remains of Théra, the ancient capital of the island of
Santorini, extend from the Selláda over the rocky ridge of Mésa Vounó,
which slopes down steeply on three sides. The town, which continued in
existence into Byzantine times, has preserved its original Hellenistic
layout
From the
Evangelismós chapel a path winds its way southwards up the hillside to the
retaining wall of a terrace on which are the remains of the temple of Apollo
Karneios (sixth century B.C.). The temple has a pronaos, naos and two rooms
built against the southwest wall of the naos. The terrace (also sixth C.) to the
south of the temple, built up to make it larger, was used for ceremonies in
honor of the god. Between the temple and the corner of the wall are the
foundations of a rectangular building, within which, cut in the rock, are
the names of various gods (northwest side; some dating from eighth century
B.C.) and of citizens of Théra
(southeast side)
