It was inhabited from the 12th century BC until the Early Middle Ages. It was called Kythnos in the ancient times and the island was named after it. It is also referred to as Ovriokastro and Rigokastro.
== Location == Vryokastro is on the northwestern side of the island, between the bays of Merichas and Apokrisi. The town had an area of 300 acres [CONVERT], and was surrounded by city walls. Part of it the town was the present-day rocky islet of Vryokastraki, which was at that time linked to the town by land. Underwater surveys and excavations show that before the sea level rise, which resulted in the separation of the rocky islet from the coast, there were buildings which are now in the water along with the now underwater walls.
