Assiros is an ancient village in the Thessaloniki prefecture in the Macedonian region of northern Greece, situated in the basin of the Axios River, about 60 kilometers from the city of Thessaloniki. It is a small town with a rich history, with archaeological sites dating from the Late Neolithic to the Bronze Age, and with artifacts such as pottery, metal tools and amber decorations that attest to the vibrant trade networks and cultural exchanges that existed in the area around 3,000 BC. The area around Athiros is predominantly agricultural, with vineyards and olive groves dotting the rolling hills, preserving the tranquility of the traditional Greek countryside. For history buffs, it is not only a window into the early civilization of ancient Greece, but also an ideal place to experience the slower pace of idyllic life.
