Greek island in the Aegean Sea, belonging to the Cyclades archipelago. In antiquity, an active Ionian trading center. On the island there is a medieval castle on the ruins of an ancient acropolis (remains of a prehistoric settlement and Ionic temple from the 6th century), near the city of Paros, the ruins of the asclepeion and the sanctuary of Apollo Delian, the Byzantine church of Katapoliani. There are well-known deposits of white marble on Paros, already exploited in the times of the Aegean culture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paros http://www.paros.gr/
