Overview

Kythera consist the only place on the planet that the resident population of the island (aprox. 3.500 people) composes the 1/20 of the Kytherians that are outside the island and maybe there are more since every Kytherian house has 5-6 other families that related and are located outside Kythera. While in the island,the symbol of the kytherean Immigrant has been made.

In comparison with the size of the island and the number of the Kytherians, the Kytherian Professors of the University around the world surpass the 50, while many Kethereans possess highly positions in foreign countries.

The name Kythera (Cerigo) has its roots deep inside history. Homer reports it in his epic work Iliad, while Goddess Aphrodite, the Goddess of love is being identified with the island and takes the name Kythereia (Akytheros was named the man that had lack of charm).
