Excavations in the village of Polichrono, at site Geromoiri, have revealed the remnants of an ancient city, called Neapolis. One can reach the site of the ancient town by taking the road leading to Kassandrino village, through the mountains. This road is located just before the hiking route leading to Mavrobara lake, before reaching Polichrono village.
One of the excavation findings in ancient town was a sundial, which shows the correct time not only for Halkidiki, but also for France, China and Rome. This rare finding was discovered in the ruins of an ancient house.
