萨索斯一定是所有希腊殖民地中最著名的一个，所以它的基础和最早期的物质证据远远不能令人满意，这是一个悖论。我们没有早期的坟墓，而且，直到1960年，也没有任何早期定居的证据。的确，在不止一个避难所中，人们认为这些发现可以追溯到（一般来说）帕罗斯殖民地生活的开始，但这些材料都不能证明早于c。650年，人们普遍认为这个时间比殖民地建立晚了大约一代人。因此，即使是最近，也可以这样写：“它似乎很可能是在公元前680年左右从帕罗斯建立起来的......可以确定的最早的陶器是科林斯和罗得岛，没有一个比7世纪中叶早得多。
Thasos must be one of the best-known, archaeologically, of all Greek colonies, so it is something of a paradox that the material evidence for its foundation and earliest days is far from satisfactory. We have no early graves, and, until 1960, there was no evidence from any very early settlement either. True, in more than one sanctuary it is assumed that the finds go back (in general terms) to the beginning of the life of the Parian colony, but none of this material is demonstrably earlier than c. 650, a time which is very generally thought to be about a generation later than the foundation of the colony. So even quite recently it was possible to write ‘It seems likely that it was founded from Paros by about 680 B.C. … The earliest pottery which can be dated is Corinthian and Rhodian, none of it much earlier than the mid seventh century.’
