A fortified Attic deme on a rocky peninsula surrounded by sea on two-thirds of its circumference, north-east of Marathon. About 600 m south of the town stands the sanctuary of Nemesis on a white marble platform, with a small poros temple of the late 6th century BC beside a large hexastyle temple of 460–420 BC that once held a colossal marble Nemesis by Agorakritos. The acropolis occupies a 28 m hill roughly 230 by 270 m, with a well-preserved main gate; it gets very few visitors and there is no public transport to the gate.
