Modern Description: Foundations of a fortification of large squared local blocks were found approximately 2 km NW of Agios Georgios (NW of Neapoli, Voion). Sherd scatter, looted tombs, and wheel ruts suggest this was a settlement, possibly Aphroditia/Aphrodisias of Lakonia. Nothing visible at place marked on Anavasi Monemvasia map, and museum guard believes site was mostly destroyed by modern cultivation.
