Kastelli Hill

Kastelli Hill (also Kasteli; Greek: Λόφος Καστέλλι or Καστέλι) is a landform at the city of Chania on the island of Crete in the present day country of Greece.[1] The Minoan city of ancient Cydonia was centered on Kastelli Hill,[2] which later was selected by the Romans as the site of an acropolis.
