Aulis Archaeological Area

The site of the 5th c. temple of Artemis Aulidia is signposted from Vathy, but fenced and locked. The temple sits just inside Boiotian territory on a main land route from Chalkis. It adjoins a protected harbor. The temple foundations and the sacred spring across the street are visible through the fence. The temple is oriented to face the SE, possibly looking toward Delos, Artemis' birthplace. Beneath the floor of the 5th-century BC temple an 8th-century BC apsidal building was found with Geometric pottery. E of the temple is the roofed 'sacred fountain' with steps. SW a Hellenistic complex of pottery workshops (3rd-2nd century BC) has been brought to light and near these a hospice (îåíὼí). In Late Roman times (4th century AD) baths were built in the area of the temple. The sanctuary was destroyed in AD 396, during the Goth incursions.

ΕΞΩ ΠΑΝΑΓΙΤΣΑ

Prehistoric settlement and cemetery of the Early Bronze Age (3000-1900 BC), located in a fertile and strategic place on the Euboian channel near Chalkis. A ten-year period of work at Manika was completed some time ago. Yet only a small part of the settlement has been excavated. Most of the site (around 600 stremmata) has been covered over by buildings, which have prevented further excavation.
