==History== The oldest archeological finds at the site date to the 4th millennium BC, during the Neolithic Period. However, the settlement began around the 16th century BC, when the Minoans colonized Samos. After the Trojan War, the naval and economic importance of Samos grew until its zenith in the 6th century BC. Although it was conquered by the Persians shortly thereafter, the town remained an influential trading center until the 3rd century AD.
