This is the first study of the particularly interesting network of quarries and roads in southern Euboea. The quarries were a major source of Cippolino marble in Roman times. The study presents a survey and examination of the quarries and roads serving them and analyses of samples of marble collected there.
The inaccessibility of the quarries has meant that they and the road systems around them have been unusually well preserved, but also that existing literature on the area is scanty and far from accurate. The material discussed here is of great historical, economic and technological significance. The preliminary mapping and registration offered here is of further value in the attempt to save the materials from further deterioration and destruction.

Doris Vanhove studied Classics at the University of Gent. Since 1980 she has taken part in the excavations and fieldwork of the Belgian Archaeological School in Greece. She has worked since 1985 at the Department of Archaeology of the University Gent, and organized in Brussels the exhibitions Thorikos (1986), Les marbres helléniques (1987), Le sport dans la Grèce antique (1991, also in Barcelona in 1992). Since 1992 she has also been curator of the classical department of the Musée Olympique in Lausanne.
