The town of Korkyra in Korfu

Korfu is a Greek island located in the Ionian Sea.

History

Classical antiquity

In antiquity, the Korkyraeans dedicated a bull statue to the Sanctuary of Delphi in Phokis following a "miraculous day" of tuna fishing.[1]

After the events of the Peloponnesian War, the Spartan misthios Kassandra retired to Korfu for a vacation.[2] She was discovered by Herodotos and Barnabas who were seeking her for another adventure.[3] The phony treasure hunt set up by Barnabas turns out to be a real threat as Kassandra discovered an Apple of Eden, which drained the power from the Spear of Leonidas.[4] After disabling the Apple of Eden after it had taken over Barnabas,[5] Kassandra took up the burden of hunting down Isu artifacts and departed from the island.

Renaissance
