The town of Mochlos was originally attached to the modern day island and provided the inhabitants with two harbours - one facing East and the other West. Traces of these can be seen underwater.
Excavation of the Artisans Quarter (now on the mainland) has revealed finds dating from about 1500 BCE whereas finds from the cemetaries go back 1000 yrs earlier.
