This picture makes you wonder. We are in the region of Thace and the archaeological site is called Mesimvria-Zoni. Somewhere in the coast between Alexandroupoli and Komotini this remarkable ancient town proves that Greeks from Thace were an exceptional tribe. They actually invented in-house air conditioning ages ago!
We are looking at the floor of a house. This part was covered with soil and these pitchers (kanatia or κανάτια in Greek) gather the humidity during winter and release it back in the summer.
