ASINI

Argolida, Greece

Offered exclusively at our Greece Retreat

The archaeological site of Asini, which is reported by Homer, consists of the citadel, built on a triangular rocky hill surrounded by sea, the neighbouring region and the hill of “Barbouna” to the west. The excavations have revealed settlements and cemeteries of the Early Helladic, Middle Helladic, Mycenaean, Geometric, Archaic and Hellenistic periods, as well as the important Mycenaean necropolis of “Barbouna”. The walls of the citadel with the big tower date in the Hellenistic years (3rd century B.C.) The citadel was reconstructed in the Byzantine years.
