Delos Archaeological Site & Museum

Despite its diminutive size, Delos is one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece, and certainly the most important in the Cyclades. Delos was a place of such importance that the surrounding islands were known as the Cyclades, since it was thought that they lay in a circle round the island on which the Apollo-Sun, god of day light and Artemis-Moon, goddess of night light were born. The special importance of Delos is emphasized by the fact that, geographically, it lies on the straight line on which also Dodona, Delphi and the Acropolis Parthenon are!
