(According to a story recounted by J.L. Bent in his 1885 travelogue on the Cyclades, Kastro fell only because of a treacherous ploy by the Turks: a young woman, heavy with child and apparently in pain, approached the entrance and begged to be admitted; the watchman's daughter opened the gate for her—and for the Turks hiding nearby.
(Segundo unha historia relatada por J.L. Bent no seu 1885 relato de viaxes das Cícladas, Kastro caeu só debido a unha traizoeira estrataxema dos turcos: unha muller nova, cun neno e aparentemente dorida, achegouse á entrada e suplicou ser admitida; a filla do vixilante abriu a porta a ela e aos turcos escondidos cerca.
