Place - History of Andros

Her story Andros is connected to that of the other Aegean islands. The name of the island goes back to mythology. The prevailing version claims that the first inhabitant of the island was Andros (or Andrews). Andros had a divine origin. His father was Anios, son of the god Apollo, and his mother Creusa or Roio, daughter of Stafylos, son of the god Dionysus. The mythological origin of the inhabitants of the island interprets the dominant worship of the god Dionysus and the presence of the gods-ancestors in their coins. Other names of Andros are: Hydrousa (due to its many springs), Epagris, Noagria and Lasia.
