This 137 room palace was built on a hilltop by the Phoenician pro-Persian king of the neighboring city Marion in the 5th century BC. Later, in 449 BC, a second storey with walls made from mud bricks was added. After it was destroyed by the inhabitants of Soli in a fire in 380 BC it was never rebuilt. Excavations discovered a clay pot blackened by the fire which destroyed Vouni, gold and silver bracelets, silver bowls and hundreds of coins.
