<p>Modern tourists enter through a reconstructed gate to view the ancient Stadium of the Olympics.<br />
<br />
"The originating Olympic Games are traditionally dated to 776 BC. The games were held every four years, or Olympiad, which became a unit of time in historical chronologies. These Olympiads were referred to based on the winner of their stadion sprint, e.g., "the third year of the eighteenth Olympiad when Ladas of Argos won the stadion". They continued to be celebrated when Greece came under Roman rule in the 2nd century BC. Their last recorded celebration was in AD 393, under the emperor Theodosius I, but archaeological evidence indicates that some games were still held after this date."

With a population of over 70,000, Kalamata is the capital and main port of of Messenia. Today Kalamata is known as the home of the Kalamata olives and Kalamata olive oil.<br />
<br />
Kalamata occupies the site of an ancient city, probably that of ancient Pharae, a city already mentioned by Homer. <br />
In medieval times, Kalamata is first mentioned in the 10th-century and got following the Fourth Crusade was conquered by Frankish feudal lords William of Champlitte and Geoffrey of Villehardouin in 1205. Kalamata remained in Frankish hands until , coming under the control of the Byzantine Despotate of the Morea in 1428.<br />
<br />
Kalamata was occupied by the Ottomans in 1481. In 1659, during the war between Ottomans and Venetians over Crete, the Venetians captured Kalamata. The town and its castle were plundered and destroyed, and all able-bodied men were carried off to serve as rowers in the Venetian galleys.<br />
The Ottomans reoccupied Kalamata in the war of 1715 and controlled it until the Greek War of Independence, when Kalamata was the first city to be liberated as the Greeks rose in the War of Independence in 1821.<br />
<br />
The Archaeological Museum of Messenia, built on the site of the city's old market hall, antiquities from Messenia from prehistoric and Mycenaean times to the Byzantine and Latin eras<br />

<p>This Cretan endemic species was thought to be endemic to cliffs in the <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/nturland/51012960860">Moni Kapsa (Perivolakia) gorge</a>, east of Ierapetra, until this population in a stream bed near the sea at Pacheia Ammos was <a href="https://doi.org/10.3372/wi.54.54103" rel="noreferrer nofollow">found in 2014</a>. It could be that the plants here originated as seeds washed down from the cliffs of the <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/nturland/2637364607">gorge of Cha</a>, which lies about 4 km upstream from this locality.<br />
