Limnos |
Homer reports the Sinties as first inhabitants of the island.They took care of the God of Fire, Ifestos, which Zeus had thrown on the island, so Ifestos in return, taught the Sinties how to be Blacksmiths.
In the ancient times the island was covered by a cloud of smoke and fire was coming out of it.The fire was coming from the two volcanoes located on the top of its mountains.As years passed by, the cloud of smoke has gone, revealing an island, which once looked like a large field, dry with white sand.
