Greece, Aegian Sea, Cyklades, Island of Siros.
Siros, the capital of Cyklades, was an island that thrived during the Ottoman occupation.The gallant sea merchants traded all around Mediterranean,collecting considerable wealth and offering also, with their ships and money, substantial help to the Greek uprisal in 1821.
