Modern Description: One kilometer west of Kalyvia Thorikou, in the area known as Ennea Pyrgoi (Nine Towers), SW of Agios Petros, lies the 12th c. Byzantine church of Panagia Mesosporitissa the Virgin Mary who protected the sowing that took place in November. The church is a single-aisled basilica, in good condition. A barrel-vaulted narthex and a chapel were later added to it in the western and northern side respectively. None of the original painted decoration has been preserved.
