Samos (/ˈseɪmɒs, ˈsæmoʊs/; Greek: Σάμος) is a Greek island in the eastern Aegean Sea, south of Chios, north of Patmos and the Dodecanese, and off the coast of Asia Minor, from which it is separated by the 1.6-kilometre (1.0 mi)-wide Mycale Strait. It is also a separate regional unit of the North Aegean region, and the only municipality of the regional unit.
In ancient times Samos was a particularly rich and powerful city-state, particularly known for its vineyards and wine production. It is home to Pythagoreion and the Heraion of Samos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that includes the Eupalinian aqueduct, a marvel of ancient engineering. Samos is the birthplace of the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras, after whom the Pythagorean theorem is named, the philosopher Epicurus, and the astronomer Aristarchus of Samos, the first known individual to propose that the Earth revolves around the sun. Samian wine was well known in antiquity, and is still produced on the island.
The island was governed by the semi-autonomous Principality of Samos under Ottoman suzerainty from 1835 until it joined Greece in 1912.
Samos (Greek: Σάμος, before 1958: Λιμήν Βαθέος - Limin Vatheos) is a port town on the island of Samos in Greece. It is also known as Kato Vathy (Κάτω Βαθύ), referring to its location below Vathy. In 2011 it had a population of 6,251.
The Town of Samos was built in the middle of 18th century as the port of Vathy. At first there were only depots for the necessities of the trade. Samos town was initially named Kato Vathy (meaning low Vathy) or Limenas Vatheos (meaning port of Vathy). Current name (Samos town) was given it in 1958. During 19th became the administration centre of the island. At that time, its population increased. After the union of Samos with Greece, Samos town remained the administration centre of the island, as well as it became the capital of the Samos Prefecture and the seat of the local municipality.
Samos town is on the coast, very close to Vathy. Its houses are built to amphitheatrically formation, around the bay. In front of the settlement is the port of Samos with wharf of more than 150 meters length. Notable buildings in Samos are the old churches of Agios Nikolaos and Agios Spiridon, the town hall and the two statues (the statue of Themistocles Sofoulis on the coastal road and the big lion statue on the central square).
The term Samos may refer to:
In geography
In fiction
It was the freshman year of my high school career
Things had barely gotten underway
Before my innocence would be betrayed
Starting with a phone call, a family member dies
And at the funeral I looked into your eyes
For the first time, this was a dream of mine
But you didn’t know me, you didn’t know my name
The first words you spoke to me
Since you left my family
You didn’t call me Stephanie
This will take some getting over don’t you agree
But now I’m here
I know it’s been a few years
I’ve shed a few tears and now I have a few things to say
When we met, you broke my heart
14 years old and you tore me apart
But that aside, please know I love you
And more than that, I forgive you
Meeting at a truck stop for lunch
We covered basics, let’s keep in touch
Not even a week later, a letter in the mail
You think it’s better to let this fail
Another attempt to get to know my father
Efforts exhausted, why did I bother
The first words you wrote to me
Since I made you family
They worried me to the worse degree
This will take some getting over don’t you agree
But now I’m here
And now it’s been a few years
I’ve shed a few tears and now I have a few things to say
When we met, you broke my heart
19 years old and you tore me apart
But that aside, please know I love you
And more than that, I forgive you
I forgive you
