Tholos Granary
(1 Vote)

At the west end of Tholos beach, Kavoussi, we meet the ruins of a large oblong building that served as a granary for storing grain and other products, especially during the Roman Era. Then, the port of Tholos was a transshipment point for ships carrying grain between Alexandria of Egypt and Rome. It is believed that it was also used during the Venetian Times.
