Chambered Tomb

Inside the wall, a second enclosure enclosed the rocky peak of the hill. It is partially preserved at the level of the foundation, while the carvings in the rock for the placement of the stones are clearly visible. On its southeastern side is a rectangular tower, measuring 11.6x5.6m, built with the isodomic masonry system, which survives to a height of approximately 8 structures (i.e. 4 meters). A chamber tomb has been carved to the east of the tower. The rectangular recesses for placing votive offerings on the southern face of the rock indicate the existence of a small sanctuary (second half of the 4th century BC).
