In 2007–2008, the same project identified and excavated a substantial Cycladic period settlement on the nearby island of Daskalio that was once attached to Keros, but is now a tiny islet because of sea level rise,.

In addition to excavation, survey of the islet showed that most of its surface — a total of 7000 square meters — was occupied during the Early Bronze Age, making this the largest site in the Cyclades.

The researchers say the remains make the island one of the most impressive archaeological sites of the Aegean Sea during the Early Bronze Age.

Some of the important artifacts of this culture are the so-called frying pans – shallow circular vessels or bowls with a decorated base.
