Wow, thanks for sharing. That is very cool, so much history in that part of the world. I go to Crete every other year, coasting along its southern side, many ruins of "lost" harbour towns which supposedly were large trade hubs in the mediterranean. I wonder if Silphium played a large role in their economies.
One of the great archeological finds of this decade(https://www.livescience.com/ancient-odeon-discovered-crete https://www.livescience.com/ancient-odeon-discovered-crete) was discovered in Lissus(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissus_(Crete) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissus_(Crete)) in 2022. A great hike from Sougia for those interested, the place truly is beautiful.
