 From the remains, the many sculptures and written sources, one can see that the city was well fortified and had a marketplace, theatre, altars and temples.The city continued throughout the 6th century AD, as it is evident from the remains of pre-Byzantine basilica churches found in the area.In 2003, the Archaeological Museum of Palaiopolis opened in a building that was donated by the Basil and Elise Goulandris Foundation.
