On the southern slope of Gavrilos Hill are rock-cut ancient tombs dating from 400-200 BC. The archaeological site consists of tombs, an altar, rectangular niches carved into the rocks, the remains of a catacomb or temple with wall and remains of entrance gate visible. On one of the rocks is a bas-relief depicting a snake crawling on the rock (called Echendra). Archaeologists believe that the archaeological site may have been part of the ancient city of Eleusis, located in what is now Perissa and was one of the most important ports of ancient Thera.
