Heraklion (Greek Ηράκλειο (n. Sg.), Also out of date Heraklion, in the spelling Heraklion used by the city itself, ancient Greek Ἡράκλειον, Herakleion, in the Middle Ages Chandakas, in the time of the Venetian rule Candia, then Turkish KandiάστοΜaloye, modern Greek [2]) is the largest city on the southern Greek island of Crete and the seat of the administrative region of Crete. The name is etymologically derived from Heracles (see history). In the case of scientific literature, it should be taken into account that the name Hieraklion (derived from Hieron) is also used in more recent texts.
