The sanctuary's Temple of Artemis, which was originally built in the late eighth century b.c. and reconstructed in the late sixth century b.c., managed to survive the construction of modern villas directly atop it.Courtesy Swiss School of Archaeology in Greece

Jim West could find him.
I see what you did there ;)
Must be different than the Temple of Artemis known to be in Ephesus, Turkey. Only a couple of pillars were still standing when I was there around ten years ago...destroyed long ago by earthquake IIRC.
Depends on Artie’s disguise.

I warned the Styrans about hanging with the Eretrian boys, with their ouzo parties and their Dionysian orgies, but would they listen? Noooo.
According to a notice in Der Kleine Pauly by Ernst Meyer, Amarynthos was a deme of Eretria on Euboea with a sanctuary of Artemis Amarysia and a great annual festival. See Strabo 10,1,10 p. 448 and Livy 35.38.3. There was also a cult of Artemis Amarysia in the Attic deme of Athmonon. Amarynthos was located at H. Vathia about 10 km east of Eretria.
But looking at a map of Greece it looks like the ancient name of Amarynthos has been restored.
Eretria just wanted to unite with Styra to get access to their Styrafoam. They had a monopoly.
isn’t that temple located in the home island kingdom of wonder woman?
No wonder those triremes floated so well. I never knew.
the site as a-ma-ru-to, which is where we can nearby, the village of true-amarillo... the birth place of the Henry Weinhard’s Longhorn Ranch on the way to Saragosa. It was bought out by Stuart Angus so they could expand the world’s stock of Black Angus four legged Steak growth and storage... and manufacturing.
ROFL... by the way did you guess what I want for dinner? ... I want steak.
“Shut that bloody bazouki off!”
Yup, it’s implied in the article that the reason for the renaming is the discoveries associated with this.
