An Early Bronze Age settlement and cemetery in the Cyclades islands off Greece, dating to the 3rd millennium BC. The settlement was surrounded by stone defenses with six semi-circular bastions; inside were a number of small rooms, separated by narrow paths. The cemetery of around 500 tombs, each containing one or two bodies, had artifacts of the so-called Keros-Syros culture, including the highly decorated dishes known as frying pans.
