Flag of Elos - Image by Olivier Touzeau, 16 September 2013
Elos was called Durali until 1912. The name of Elos dates back to
ancient times: the geographer Pausanias mentions a seaside city near Sparta
called Helos, whose inhabitants were enslaved and became the helots. In
Greek mythology, Helos was founded by Helios, the younger son of Perseus.
The town was reduced by siege by the Dorians, and their inhabitants became
the first slaves of the Lacedemonian state.
The seat of the municipality was in Vlachioti (Βλαχιώτης, 2,373 inh.). Main productions in Elos are oranges and olive oil.
The flag of Elos (Kokkonis website) was blue with the municipal seal in the middle and the words "ΔΗΜΟΣ ΕΛΟΥΣ" beneath in gold.
