Neolithic Settlement of Dimini

Reviewed By CarynandLesP - Bunbury, Australia

Well worth a visit. A compact site so not a lot of walking necessary, but plenty to see. Signage and explanations make it possible to create a mental image of the settlement. Includes a Mycnaean tholos (another one about 200m down the road) and a neolithic 'village' made up of a megaron surrounded by 14 one room areas. We were struck by how modern were the needs of neolithic people - very similar to our own times. Entrance fee - €2
