Although rock had been quarried at this site for centuries going back to ancient times, nobody had any idea that there was a Hellenistic and Roman tomb complex just outside Ayia Napa until in 1989.
Cyprus is a place that is constantly unearthing remnants of its early civilisations and these tombs are worth a little tour.
There are 19 rock chambers in total, each with a large rectangular entrance that would have been sealed with a large limestone slab.
