Comments

Delos island is one of two islands (called Diles - ΔΗΛΕΣ -, plural for Delos). The other island which is larger in area is Rhenia - ΡΗΝΙΑ- .

Not sure if you're suggesting an edit. Are you suggesting the "Delos" article should actually be about both islands? Also, please log in and sign your posts, thanks. --Rodii 20:50, 1 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't Cleopatra have a home in Delos that has been uncovered? (not the cleopatra you're thinking of, just someone with the same name) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.146.156.130 (talk) 07:14, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kynthos is a pre-Greek name? What is it, "Indo-European"? How can you make claims like that when Indo-European is a reconstructed, completely hypothetical language. Article has been edited.

While they were apparently the first Greek-speaking people in the region, the Mycenaeans weren't the first people in the region — it's like saying that English places named "Combe" have pre-English names, since that's a Celtic name. Nyttend (talk) 00:27, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Area

The area is probably not 40 km as stated here. In other wikipedias it's 3-4 square km.

Image locations

In my opinion images look better inlined with the text compared to placed at bottom in a gallery. What do you think? Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 18:46, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because it's a small article I just stuck those four in the gallery to relieve the gaps that occur with the pics in the article. _{El Greco}^(talk) 00:08, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Map

Not colorblind friendly, consider the addition of a map with text or symbols rather than just a color indicator of location. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.149.80.46 (talk) 09:09, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
