They say that in old times, visiting the island, Empress Helena of Constantinople was amazed by the number of venomous snakes and how many people die from them. Knowing that cats successfully fight against snakes, she sent two ships with cats. They were left on the island at, as now called, Cat Cape (Gata Cape), not far from Akrotiri. Nearby the monastery St Nicholas Cats was erected.
