Three Churches in Paros

Three Churches in Paros

The archaeological site Three Churches is in Paros, at the road that connects Parikia and Naoussa.

The Three Churches took their name from the ruins of three 17th century that had been built on the ruins of an early Christian basilica of the 6th century. This in turn, as it was used, had been built upon ancient monuments even using several of their materials.

We are obviously talking about a multilevel site. Among the findings a column capital stands out (which is exhibited at the Archaeological Museum of Paros) from the funerary monument of Archilochus, leading scientists to believe that here was the Archilocheio, a memorial in honor of the leading Parian poet of antiquity.
