Description

An unusual tour in the area of Ancient Aigeira. This place has a history spanning seven millennia. Many people have passed through, some as conquerors, others as settlers, and some as refugees, shaping and being shaped by this land.

Settlements as well as magnificent cities were built, flourished, and withered over the years, leaving behind ruins of glorious eras along with legends, beliefs that many have found a way to survive to this day.

An unusual tour, a dialogue with an old friend, Pericles, in the area of Ancient Aigeira, a wander through the beauties of the place.

Why is our mountain called Eurostina, what is the legend of the "stone-aged old woman" and what connection might it have with the goddess of the Pelasgians, Gaia, whose sanctuary is mentioned by Pausanias? Which villages formed the Kapodistrian municipality of Aigeira? What was today's Aigeira like back then? Do villages go through adolescence? And if so, how long does it last, when can we say they reach adulthood?

Some of the issues this book attempts to address.
