From this temple Hermias of Atarneus, a student of Plato, ruled Assos, the Troad and Lesbos for a period of time, under which the city experienced its greatest prosperity. (Strangely, Hermias was actually the slave of the ruler of Atarneus*.) Under his rule, he encouraged philosophers to move to the city. As part of this, in 348 BC Aristotle came here and married King Hermeias’s niece, Pythia, before leaving to Lesbos three years later in 345 BC. This ‘golden period’ of Assos ended several years later when the Persians arrived, and subsequently tortured Hermias to death. The Persians were driven out by Alexander the Great in 334 BCE. Between 241 and 133 BC, the city was ruled by the Kings of Pergamon. However, in 133 BC, the Pergamons lost control of the city as it was absorbed by the Roman empire. St. Paul also visited the city during his third missionary journey through Asia Minor, which was between 53-57 AD, on his way to Lesbos. From this period onwards, Assos shrunk to a small village, as it has remained ever since. Ruins around Assos continue to be excavated.

Fira, the capitol of Santorini is on top of a very large cliff. The town hangs precariously at the edge of the cliff. The steep cliffs are 300 m (984 ft) high. See the Wikipedia entry for Santorini for more information on these facinating Islands. In this view you can see one of the ways of getting up and down to the dock. If you feel fit enough, you can use the zig-zag path from top to bottom. You can walk or you can ride one of the ponies which carry tourists up and down the cliff path from the dock at the base of the cliff. The other way you can get up and down the cliff is to use the 12 cable cars, 6 going up and 6 going down. Each car holds 6 passengers. Santorini, Greece, is a collection of small Islands which are the southern most islands of the Cycladic group in the Aegean Sea.

I’d just spent 11 hours on the ferry from Piraeus to Kos Island, my first time on an overnight ferry like that and although I had dozed off once or twice, I hadn’t actually slept. I headed off in search of transport to the other side of the island – I was going to be staying in Kefalos again, a quiet little village with lovely beaches which remain comparatively quiet and great Tavernas which offer delicious local fare at very reasonable prices! As I set off from the harbour the world got bathed in glorious colours as the sun rose … I had to stop and dig the camera out!! :) The silhouetted skyline is the coastline of Turkey.
