Eleoussa Continuing along the road which from Moni Kalopetra penetrates into the thick forest of pines that characterises the landscape of the northern part of the island, we enter the vast territory of Mt Profitis Ilias. The first village we meet is Psinthos which possesses two beautiful frescoed churches, Ayia Trias and Panaghia Parmeniotissa. However the village is also famous because it is here that the battle took place in which, in 1912, the Italians definitively defeated the Turks, a victory which led to the Italian occupation of the island. The signs of the Italian presence become tangible when one arrives at Eleoussa, a little village on the side of the mountain. In 1943 Eleoussa (which was then christened Campochiaro) became the summer residence of the Italian governor who ordered that the inhabitants replant the forests of the area. A shady forest of pines covers the slopes of Mt Profitis Ilias 63
