Mykonos

Mykonos or Myconos is an island of Greece.
It is one of the Cyclades, a group of islands of the Aegean Sea, lying between Tinos, Siros, Paros and Naxos.
It has an area of 86 km² and an elevation of 364 m. It is made mostly of granite and has little water. There are approximately 6200 inhabitants (2002). The largest town is Mykonos, also known as Hora, on the west coast.
In Greek mythology Mykonos was the location of the battle between Zeus and the Gigantes and the island was named in honor of Apollo's grandson Mykons. During these ancient times, Mykonos, due to its proximity to the then highly populated island of Delos (situated about 2km away), became very important as a supply island and possibly as a getaway location for Delian citizens.
