Archaeological remains
The architectural remains on the slopes of Mt. Profitis Ilias at the settlement of Panormos are identified with the ancient Phaestino, a town of west Locris where the important sanctuary of Apollo in Phaestino was situated. Important finds from the broader region attest to the importance of the site in antiquity: a rich classical burial in Pithos, found at Lousa; an ancient defense tower to the northwest of the village; and a considerable number of manumission inscriptions, according to which a slave was "sold" to the god within the precinct of the temple of Apollo. This "sale" of slaves in the presence of witnesses was a widespread practice of manumitting in Central Greece, and particularly in Delphi.
