Description

The rich archaeological findings on Lesvos (or Lesbos) show that the island was inhabited from early antiquity due to its fertile hinterland and its advantageous geographical position.

The first organized communities developed about four thousand years ago and soon enough trading began with Asia Minor, other islands of the Aegean Sea and the wider Greek area. The nature and position of the island often made it a target for the powers of those times, but also contributed to the development of a particularly distinguished civilization marked by Sappho, Arion, Pittacus, Alcaeus, Terpandrus, Theophrastus, Theophanes and numerous other poets, writers and philosophers.

Alexander the Great liberated the island from the Persians only for it to later fall under the domination of the Romans.
