This was a Bronze Age port along with Enkomi, and became the main city after Enkomi was abandoned in 1050 BC. It was favoured by the Romans, leading to the classical ruins now visible, notably the gymnasium and amphitheatre. But it too suffered from silting, and came under Arab attack in the 7th century AD, and the population abandoned it for Arsinoë the present-day Famagusta.
