In Nea Kios, Argolis, the celebration of Theophany incorporates Asian Minor customs, honoring the memory of refugees from Kios in Asia Minor. According to tradition, the cross held by last year’s winner is returned to the priest on the eve of the following year’s feast. Priest Demosthenes Gatsios highlights the vibrant participation of the community in this significant event, mirroring similar ceremonies that once took place in Asia Minor. The retrieval of the cross, which is weighted, poses challenges during the ceremony.
