The acropolis has been located in the area of Kanalia, between the rushing waters descending from Olympus, near modern Skotina. Sections of the fortification are preserved among the dense vegetation. Of particular importance for the prehistory of Macedonia are the Late Bronze Age (13th-12th century BC) cemeteries with copious grave goods. The finds are housed in the Dium Archaeological Museum.
