Storia
Cisamus or Kisamos was town of ancient Crete. It appears as one of two towns of the name in the Peutinger Table 32 M.P. to the west of Cydonia. The name appears as Cisamum in Pliny the Elder. Its site is located under modern Kastelli-Kissamou, where travelers in the 19th century observed 14 or 15 fragments of shafts of marble and granite columns, an Ionic capital, and remains of walls, indicating that there once existed upon this site a flourishing and important city.
