The island near where this was found sounds like a good place to go if you want some peace and quiet. It's half-way between Cythera and Crete, is about 8 square miles in area and has a population of 44 people.

Cythera, about 20 miles to the north, was associated with the goddess Aphrodite--which inspired Watteau's painting Embarcation for Cythera.
