This καλντερίμι was part of the main connection between Ch. Sfakion and Anopoli. Most of the paths of this type were artfully repaved after the Turks left during the Cretan State period (1898-1913) and are well preserved in places, unless modern road construction has crossed them (like this one in the last third).

The paths were partly well laid out but slightly changed by some earthquakes.
