Mesara Plain
The Mesara or Messara Plain (πεδιάδα της Μεσαράς) is an illuvial plain in southern Crete, stretching about 50 km west-to-east and 7 km north-to-south, making it the largest plain in Crete. On a hill at its west end are the ruins of Minoan Phaistos; near the middle are the ruins of the ancient city of Gortys. Since 1500 BC the plain has grown up to 6 km due to a build up of illuvial sediment.
