Delos
According to Greek mythology, Apollo was born on this tiny island in the Cyclades archipelago. Apollo's sanctuary attracted pilgrims from all over Greece and Delos was a prosperous trading port. The island bears traces of the succeeding civilizations in the Aegean world, from the 3rd millennium B.C. to the palaeochristian era. The archaeological site is exceptionally extensive and rich and conveys the image of a great cosmopolitan Mediterranean port.
提洛岛
根据希腊神话，阿波罗就出生在基克拉迪群岛(Cyclades)的这个小岛上。阿波罗神殿吸引了来自希腊各地的朝拜者，而提洛岛在当时则是一个繁荣的贸易港口。岛上有爱琴海从公元前3000年到古基督教时代各阶段文明的遗迹。此处考古遗址格外辽阔、富饶，是一个巨大的地中海世界港口。
