The history of Milos, Greece can be dated back thousands of years and is rich and varied. Many new visitors to the island may not realize that this is where the Venus of Milos was discovered in 1820 buried on land where the village of Tripiti now stands. It was found by a young farmer who was searching the ruins there with a French naval officer. When both parts were uncovered the statue was bought very cheaply. It now has a permanent home at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

Milos is a popular tourist destination that still retains its own sense of tradition.
