Skyros is one of the few islands in the Aegean Sea whose history begins many millennia ago.

It took its name, according to one version, from its wild, rocky terrain. "Skyron" or "skyron" meaning "rock debris", according to another, it took its name from "Skyrian variegated stone", the famous Skyrian colored marble with which the Romans decorated their mansions.

Homer also mentions her in the Iliad as Anemoessa.

Great names of mythology have passed through Skyros, leaving their mark to this day, such as Theseus, Achilles, Neoptolemus.
