Kephala

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kephala is a hill landform in northern Crete, Greece.[1] This location was chosen by ancient settlers for the site of the Palace of Knossos; the footprint of the Neolithic settlement at Kephala Hill was actually larger than the Bronze Age Palace of Knossos.[2]
