It was named after the mythical Prince Stafilos. His grave was found on the small cape at the right side, together with his golden sword, which is displayed at the Archaeological Museum of Athens. The grave is similar to the royal Mycenaean ones. It is believed that Prince Stafilos with a group of Cretans settled here and founded a town, in 1600 B.C.
