The sightseer then has found in the first niche, a fragment of parapet with an embossed cross and a written illegible inscription which cannot be found today, while on the second niche, he saw piles of bones.

The sanctuary was founded shortly after the arrival of the Parians at Thassos, in the mid-7th century BC, and it had continuous religious activities all the way up to the end of the worship of the ancient gods. Within the sanctuary, there are many inscriptions and carvings on several architectural parts of buildings, but also on marble bases, which were found. In one of these bases there is an inscription with prayers to the "Gods Saviors ", in other words to Dioskouri. According to the Greek mythology Dioskouri, Castor and Polydefkis, were twin brothers, sons of Zeus and Lyda and brothers of Helen of Sparta. They are considered to be protectors of sailors since they appear as constellations in order to help sailing. They are directly connected with the sanctuary of the Great Gods of Samothrace and the famous Kaviria Mysteries. The find of the inscription and the existence of two buildings with identical floor plan, led to the wrong assumption that the place was a sanctuary dedicated to the twin sons of Zeus, Dioskouri. Excavations revealed a surface, with overall dimensions of approximately 30 x 17 meters, which is occupied by two buildings with identical floor plans, but with one building to be slightly larger than the other. For the construction of buildings, the area was leveled and smoothed, while marble blocks were used in order to create a terrace. The buildings which were constructed for the operational needs of the sanctuary, have a portico with five columns and behind it there are two apartments. The northern apartment of each building is slightly larger than the equivalent southern apartment, of each building. The northern apartment of each building has a hearth made of marble bricks. The oldest archaeological layer in the north building, is dated on the mid-7th century BC. However, the building got the form it has today, during the period between 530 BC and the 3rd century AD. From approximately 470 to 465 BC, the Ionic columns of the portico of the northern building started to get replaced by Doric columns instead. This replacement was never completed. The smaller, southern construction was built between 500 and 470-465 BC. Both buildings were abandoned in the 3rd century AD. The buildings were serving as utility rooms where all the religious people gather, in order to host the symposiums, which followed the sacrifices and prayers for good navigation of the sailors who were transferring the marbles of the quarry. The excavations of the northern building took place in 1887 by Theodore Bent, and brought to light this archaic kouros, which today is located at the Archaeological Museum of Istanbul. The archaic kouros, is a typical representation of Thassian archaic sculpture which demonstrates the sovereignty of the artistic standards of Paros, which was the metropolis of the colony of Thassos. Inscribed base shaped altar, of the late Roman period (second-third century AD) A.1 ῃ εὔπλε ῷ Ἡρ - κλ ῷ εὐ υ ῷ Θεσσ λονει- 5 κεῖ ῷ Ἐπικ ή- ου κ ὶ Ζωΐλου. Ζωΐλῳ ρ ικερ- δενπόρῳ εὐ- υ ῶς. The translation of the inscription is approximately the one follows: Good Luck! Wishes for a good journey to the lucky Hercules from Thessaloniki, a ship which belongs to Epiktitos and Zoilos, and also good luck to Zoilos, the great merchant, called “archikerdemporos”. Archikerdemporos was probably the name of the title of the head of a group or a trade union of merchants. In other signs the term “nafkliros” is displayed instead. In the north building, the sanctuary of Dioscuri as it is called, and on the pillar of the portico with the Doric columns, there are carvings preserved which are dated since antiquity. In these inscriptions, carved out probably by visitors of the sanctuary, we can read the names of the latter and also perhaps the names of their partners as well. So in the picture shown, we could read the following: NIKOBULE OF EPHESUS GOOD TRUTH VITHYS GOOD In another part of the pillar, symbols are inscribed on the marble, which could probably reveal the sexual orientation of the visitors of the site! The first Greek colonists, who arrived on the island in the early 7th BC century, are Parians who settled after going through hard battles with the local Thracian tribes on the north side of the island, where the port is today, where they discovered the ruins of the ancient city of Thassos. It is likely that Parians chose Thassos due to the potential to extract gold, as well as silver, lead, copper and iron, but also because of the quarrying of marble, and also because of the precious and plentiful timber, which fed all the local shipyards in order to build the fleet which was promoting the products of the island, including the famous, Thassian wine throughout the ancient Greek world. The exploitation of the marble quarries, as well as the gold and silver mines of the inland of Thrace brought during ancient times,a great economic growth and prosperity throughout the island. Thassos developed its own coinage and its coins circulated widely in the ancient world. On the front side of the coins there is a representation of themes related to the worship of Dionysus: either the god of wine himself, or his followers Satyrs and Maenads. On the back side, and also depending on the historical period, there are representation of dolphins, craters, concave squares, or even Hercules. A silver Stater of Thassos of the Classical Age: A representation of a typical Dionysian scene of a Silenus who grabs a resisting Mainada, the resistance of the latter is indicated by her right hand which is raised with an open palm. This is dated back to the 5th century BC (around 463-411 BC), it has diameter of 21 mm and its weight is 8.66 grams. On the back side, a concave square appears. A silver four drachma coin of Thassos of the Roman Age: It pictures the head of the young Dionysus crowned with ivy. This is dated back to the 2nd century BC (after 148 BC) and it has diameter of 30 mm and its weight is 16.92 grams. On the back side there is an illustration of: Hercules with lion skin and a bat and there is an inscription which says "HERCULES SAVIOR OF THE THASSIANS". This specific coin, as well as a coin of Maronia dated on the same period, are the most important in the region.

Here, and at around the 2nd or 3rd century AD, a young virgin was buried. On the west side, an inscription with fifteen verses is visible, while on the north side of the sarcophagus, you can see a carved ancient ship, similar to the ones which were used to carry and trade the marbles of the region. With the exception of this sarcophagus, as well as few tombstones, there is nothing else spotted or found from the ancient settlement. The text of the inscription is considered to be the words of a girl who died before she could get married. This information was provided to us by the same deceased young girl who according to the verses, she says “I, as well as the other virgins, didn’t feel at all the pleasures of the delightful dances. And this happened because my mother mourned for my death very early. And my father did not accompany me together with a young man, to the bridal chamber "(verses 9-12). According to the beliefs of the time, dead virgins were able to communicate with the living, and this is due to the fact that at another point on the inscription we read that: "God gives the right to the virgins, even after their death, to be able to talk to all people, as if they were alive "(verses 7-8).

Time, as well as human activities, economic and quarrying, left their indelible marks on Alyki. Visitors can tour the archaeological site and see monuments which are dated all the way from the Archaic period to the Byzantine period, but they can also see the sites of the ancient marble quarries which were very accurately described by the archaeologists as an "open museum of ancient technology". At the entrance of the Archaeological site, there is a sign from the Archaeological Authority of Kavala and Thassos, which displays a floor plan with all the religious buildings of Alyki, topographic map of the peninsula with general information, and a proposed circular route, which enables the visitor to get a clear picture of the area and its history. The antiquities of the peninsula of Alyki were known to the foreign sightseers as early as the 19th century, when the island was conquered by the Ottoman Empire. The first excavations on the site of an ancient temple, took place from 1886 to 1877, by Theodore Bent. In 1924, A. Laumonier and Y. Bequignon continued the excavation which Bent had started before. However, proper regular excavation activities on the site started by the French Archaeological School in 1961, and they were led by J. Servais and P. Bernard. These activities got completed in 1964. The first excavations in the early Christian basilicas were led by F. Salviat, in 1964, and they continued, during the periods 1969-1973 and 1976-1977, under the command of Jean-Pierre Sodini. There are two versions considering the current name of the region. The first version is based on the testimony of Emmanuel Miller, who names the region "Alki". The latter word in ancient Greek means: power, strength and vigor. This name is probably related to the strong economic activity as well as the big number of castles of the region, castles which aimed to control the quarries as well as the countryside, and which were found by the French, archaeological, surveys. Later on, probably due to alteration of the original name, the area was named "Alyki" and that happened because of its supposed salt deposits, during the summer months, which are formed on the cavities of the quarry, cavities which the villagers use for their olives. Today, there are no such deposits anywhere on the bay, even in its drier places. The only sediment which you can observe in these places is crumbled marble dust, caused for the erosion due to sea waves and the wind, and there is nothing related to salt, or even a small quantity of it.

This area today is known as Alyki a name which is in use for this region since the late Byzantine period. But the region was also known during ancient times, and that was due to the exportation of its excellent quality marble. Today, there is a different type of economic growth for Alyki. The unique landscape, which is made up from the incomparably beautiful sandy, rocky and pebbly beaches, the olive and the pine trees which are reaching the seafront while they are passing through the white marble of the subsoil, as well as the crystal clear turquoise waters of both bays, are great attractions which contribute to the increase of the visits in the area. At the same time, the stone huts of the local fishermen and olive growers, are serving today visitors as places of hospitality and catering.
