The site of Thorikos had been inhabited since the Neolithic period (c. 4500 BC). Prehistoric and Mycenaean settlements existed on Velatouri Hill where the acropolis is now. Tombs of the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age are found on the lower slopes of the hill, beneath the Classical levels.
The theater was constructed between 525-480 BC and sits below the acropolis, on the south slope of Velatouri Hill. It is unique due to its shape which comprises an elongated layout with an oval orchestra and is the earliest theater ever found in Greece.

At Cape Sounion, the Athenians built a sanctuary surrounded by a wall. The sanctuary consisted of temples dedicated to the gods of the city. The principal temple was dedicated to Poseidon, the god of the sea.

This is a Doric temple and is the only temple which has been preserved until today.

Sounion National Park was established in 1971. The importance of such forest for the microclimate of the capital is evident. Also, the plant life of the park, although not sufficiently researched, is of particular interest.

The mines in Lavrion area is one of the oldest mines in Greece. In this area you will see a lot of ancient ore washing basins in. To wash the ore, large quantities of water were collected in these basins. They collected the rain water that was subsequently channeled to the different washing stations on the site.

The “Chasm Chaos” is a chasm almost circular shape depth 55 m. and a diameter of 120 m. It was probably formed by the collapse of the cave roof. In the area south of Chaos scattered mining galleries and ore residues.
