A small square / belvedere looking to the cultivated land of Damasta is created to remember a sabotage against the Nazi Occupation. The composition includes a triangular pavement designed by strips recording the number of the victims in the village after the sabotage, a wall on the northern site and two others, creating a kind of bastion looking to the west. There is no evidence of any eroic act but the silence of the time passed. Three marble volumes indicates the three victims of the event, and a stanza taken from Odysseas Elytis is hewed on the walls: “ . . As more as time corrodes the material so loudly comes the oracle by my tongue: be afraid of the rage of dead people and the statues of the rocks”
