Drakospita (Dragonhouses): Leaving the colonization history of the island aside, maybe the most interesting finding related to mythology is the so-called “Dragonhouses” of Southern Evia. In Evia, like in many other areas in Greece, ancient Greeks used to live in dragonhouses, stone houses with huge internal spaces. They believed that dragonhouses would protect them better than conventional homes from weather conditions, as well as from mysterious natural creatures, like dragons and fairies, which they believed in. They also performed many rituals in order to get rid of creatures of the wind, as well as wind itself, which was a daily problem.

Titans: The Titans were people with the form and skills of gods. It is said that they were the first inhabitants of the island of Evia. The Giants, however, came to the island and smashed them. Although the island was settled by Giants, there were still areas that secretly worshiped the Titans. According to the legend, Evia is an island of high earthquake activity because of the battles between the Titans, the Giants and the Greek gods, which are called Titanomachies and Gigantomachies, respectfully.
