Antiquity
In the present village of Therma, traces of an ancient settlement were found, that was on the Roman road of Amphipolis-Heraclea Sintica. Right next to the village, at the sites "Paliambela" and "Mizaria", the necropolis would extend, as evidenced by the finding of ancient graves. Also inside the village, during the construction of houses, foundations of ancient buildings were revealed. Lastly, during the works for the construction of the water supply network, various inscriptions had come to light. The foundation of this ancient settlement should have been related to the use of the thermal springs here and the construction of suitable thermal baths.
