Village of Stylloi, Famagusta District
The Village of Stylloi (Pillar in Greek), located some 4 miles west of Salamis north of the buffer zone. Again, as with most towns and villages in Cyprus, there are both churches and mosques. In the north, the churches have been abandoned and are often desecrated, and their icons and relics looted.Such was the case with this church.
