If you visit the site of Ancient Philippi, a walk at the Neolithic Settlement of Dikili Tash is surely worth the visit, as it is one of the oldest settlements of Europe, located at the town of Krinides. It is generally believed that the first people settled down in this region in 6,000 BC. The Turkish name Dikili Tash (standing stone) obviously comes from a big stone located at the site. The Latin letters that are barely distinguished on the stone prove that it was the tombstone of the Roman Officer Cointus Vibius Quartus. The oldest wines worldwide were discovered here and they are 6,500 years old! The 18^th Ephorate of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities of the Greek ministry of Culture started the archaeological research of this site in 1960 in cooperation with the French Archaeological Society of Athens. However there are still many efforts to be done in order to discover more findings. The site of Dikili Tash hides many unrevealed secrets. A visit will bring you in contact with a distant past.
