Modon is mainly known for its Venetian castle, an important crossroad for travelers, pilgrims and merchants during the Middle Ages. Nevertheless, some of its fortifications come from ancient Greece and they have not been studied as yet. Therefore, the study and dating of the ancient walls of the castle and of the remains of columns and buildings offers a more complete picture of a site whose long history is not only written on paper, but is still seen on stone.
