The Zaloggo monument is situated not far from the archaeological spot of Kassopi. Historical accounts tell us that in 1803, 63 women from the Sοuli villages, along with their children, plunged off the cliff while dancing, to avoid capture by Ali Pasha’s troops (1788-1822).
The Acherontas strait and Estuary region is amongst the 18 sites of natural significance acknowledged as being the most impressive in that area.
Here, the most renowned necromancy site (or oracle of the dead) of antiquity can be found, near the northwest shores of the Acherousian lake.
The earliest mention of the Acheron necromanteion is found in Homer’s Odyssey, where Circe instructs Ulysses to seek out Teiresias, the blind prophet, in the underworld, to receive a prophecy for his journey back to Ithaka.
