Today is Aristomenis day, his tomb is 10 minutes walk from my villa go past at least once a day dog walking, if you google Aristomenis tomb your find a picture of it now its posh as it has a corrugated tin roof over it, if you can find a picture of Nestors tomb your see it has a stone dome over it this would have had the same Nestor being a king his was rebuilt.
So who was Aristomenis.
Aristomenes was a Messenian hero of the seventh century BC, of semi-divine origin, who performed incredible exploits while leading his country for many years in resistance to the Spartans. On one occasion an eagle aided his miraculous escape from captivity.
Sorry but that's all I could find on him, but most of this whole area was once all under water, as there is lots of evidence of that, I have sitting next to me an oyster that is around 3 inch's thick and yes very old and it has many layers of shell.
