During antiquity, the Ravine of Archampolis was a settlement related to extensive ironworking. Dating of the findings uncovered by excavations suggest that the area was inhabited during the 5th to 1st century BC, but there is evidence of a Geometric period settlement that is yet to be uncovered or was already destroyed by the 5th century BC. The settlement was under the influence of the city of Karystos during the classic period, as revealed by two bronze coins of Karystos and three of the Euboean League, of which Karystos was an active member.
