Tremithia (Terebinth: Pistacia terebinthus) is a tree that was found in large quantities in the surrounding area.
Indeed, in the old times the village was known for its production of “Pafitiki Pissa” (gum of Pafos) (Cypriot Greek: Παφίτικη Πίσσα), which is made out of the resin of the Terebinth tree.
It probably is the village that was granted in 1375 -along with others -to Tibaldi Belfarang by King Peter II of Cyprus as a reward for the services he offered in the war against the Genoese.
During their tour of Cyprus for the purpose of preaching Christianity, the two saints hid in that cave and remained there for two-three days after being persecuted.
This place is considered as a holy one and many are the faithful that seek to be healed by washing their hands and face with the miraculous water of this cave, the two saints also being known as miracle makers with regards to having fever and shivering.
The fabulous and convenient women’s loft, constructed in a semicircular fashion, allows the faithful of comfortably viewing and enjoying the services every Sunday and on holidays.
