From Petra village nearby as you climb up before
the village Petri, there is a rocky hill where
at the base below that hill is known as the
"Achilles well" because the great hero anchored
his ships there.
The area is called "Achilleiophigada=Achilles
well" (ΑχιλλιοπηγÜδα
by the locals).
Witnessing remains today ruin walls, mooring
stones, carved holes to hold rings to tie ships,
and the path approaching that little harbor one
can notice the smoothness of the busy path of
the rocks.
