	Gytheio
		Many scholars attribute bravery, fierceness in battle, and the independence of the inhabitants of the Mani to their Spartan ancestry.
		Even though Gytheio does not possess any significant archeological monuments (only fragments of a Roman theatre survive nearby), it is an enchanting place -- a quintessential Greek port town with houses rising in tiers around the bay.
		A legend links Gytheio's tiny island of Marathonisi with Helen of Troy: After the abduction, Paris brought Helen to the island and the couple spent their first night together here.
