Modern Description: From the first kouros a path leads to a small cottage where it is possible to take refreshments in the shade of citrus trees. Not far beyond, a path leads diagonally up the hillside to the second kouros, which lies exposed on the hillside. It is of similar dimensions, and though more eroded, was in a slightly more advanced state of completion. The front of the face has sheered off and both legs are broken at the knees. Fragments of the feet and shins lie in the area. From here it is possible to cut southwest across the fields and rejoin the stone kalderimi or mulepath which leads from Myli across the hill, south to Ano Potamiá (35mins by foot), arriving in the village beside its spring and taverna.
