Kritinia
Kritinia (Greek: Κρητηνία) is a Greek village in the municipal unit of Attavyros, on the island of Rhodes, South Aegean region. In 2001 its population was 606; 542 in the village proper and 64 in the locality of Kameiros Skala. ==History== The village, meaning ''New Crete'', was founded by some families escaped from Crete (Κρήτη) during the Turkish rule in the island.〔(Historical infos about Kritinia )〕 Originally, the settlement was located by the coast, in the current position of Kameiros Skala; but after the Byzantine era it was moved on the hills, for safety against pirates. In 1658, the Venetian Doge Francesco Morosini tried to conquer Rhodes entering at Kameiros Skala beach, but the Venetian army was rejected. The castle above Kritinia, named ''Kastellos'' (Κάστελλος), was built in 1472 by Giorgio Orsini to protect the inhabitants of the village from the attacks of the Ottoman fleets. Until the liberation of the Dodecanese, the village was named ''Kastelli'', from the Latin ''Castellum'', meaning castle.
