Gerokambos on the southern coast of Asterousia range is a major archaeological site and apparently had a direct connection with the sacred spa town of ancient Levena , today's Lendas . It's not a coincidence that its name derives from a corruption of the words " Ieros Kambos " (sacred plane).

In addition to the Gerokambos vaulted tomb , a large Roman-era building was found at this site in 1981, which is believed to have been a mansion.
