THE TZOUMERKA REGION/ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES AND MONUMENTS

ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES The sharp outline and awkwardness of the Tzoumerka area give the impression of a hard to access, hostile area that is unsuitable to humans. Despite this, the area was inhabited very early on. Surface ruins from the Copper Age, abandoned acropoli and hellenistic fortresses are proof of this. Archaeological digs have been carried out over a minimal area, compared to the number of archaeological sites.
