Family and family honor are precious in Crete. Even supposedly minor offenses such as land disputes or the theft of animals can hurt this honor and, in the worst case, lead to murder.
In any case, only those who fled and never returned could save themselves.
Today many ruins and a cemetery bear witness to the history of the village.
