    Maroneia Archaeological Site

    Ancient Maroneia produced the "Ismarian wine" that Homer praised in the Odyssey - so strong it required dilution of 1:20 with water. Odysseus used it to intoxicate the Cyclops Polyphemus. The site includes ancient rock-carved wine presses on Mount Ismaros, theater ruins, and traces of the prosperity wine brought.
