Lindos History
According to Homer Lindos was built by the Dorians in the
12th century B.C. Rhodes sent nine ships to the Trojan War
which all came from Lindos. The oldest finds that came to
light here was stone from the Neolithic Period (3rd
millennium B.C) which proves how far back the history of
Lindos stretches.The find known as "The Chronicle of the
Temple of Athena" confirms that several of the best known
names in Greek history visited the Temple among them
included Herakles, Helen of Troy and Menelaus, Artaphernes,
King of Persia and Alexander the Great. The ancient theatre
of Lindos lies to the right of the harbor several parts of
its wedge shaped seats and the orchestra have survived as
they were carved into the rock. The rock that provides the
base of the Acropolis is almost triangular in shape standing
a proud 166m high. The walls of the Acropolis were built by
the Knights and once inside the Acropolis there are four
levels to explore on the very top (the fourth level) of the
ancient Acropolis you will find the reconstructed Temple of
Athena. According to ancient Greek mythology the first
temple was created by Danaos. The temple whose ruins you see
today was built in the middle of the 4th century B.C. Lindos
has many places of historical interest one other top
recommendation is the Church
