Stravomyti Cave is 400 meters above sea level on Mt.

Stravomyti Cave first saw use during Neolithic times, as a refuge and burial.

During the Early Minoan period, the quality of pottery suggests that people lived in the caves.

The cave may have once been a shrine to a female deity - Artemis, Diktynna or perhaps Eileithyia.
