The excavations, with then-current political overtones, were conducted on the site of the city of <a href="/wiki/Hephaistia" class="mw-redirect" title="Hephaistia">Hephaistia</a> (i. e., Palaiopolis) where the Pelasgians, according to Herodotus, surrendered to <a href="/wiki/Miltiades_the_Younger" class="mw-redirect" title="Miltiades the Younger">Miltiades</a> of Athens in 510 BC, initiating the social and political <a href="/wiki/Hellenization" title="Hellenization">hellenization</a> of the island. There, a necropolis (ca. 9th–8th centuries BC) was discovered, revealing bronze objects, pots, and over 130 <a href="/wiki/Ossuary" title="Ossuary">ossuaries</a>. The ossuaries contained distinctly male and female funeral ornaments. Male ossuaries contained knives and axes whereas female ossuaries contained earrings, bronze pins, necklaces, gold-diadems, and bracelets. The decorations on some of the gold objects contained spirals of <a href="/wiki/Mycenaean_Greece" title="Mycenaean Greece">Mycenaean</a> origin, but had no Geometric forms. According to their ornamentation, the pots discovered at the site were from the Geometric period. However, the pots also preserved spirals indicative of Mycenaean art. The results of the excavations indicate that the Early Iron Age inhabitants of Lemnos could be a remnant of a Mycenaean population and, in addition, the earliest attested reference to Lemnos is the Mycenaean Greek <i>ra-mi-ni-ja</i>, "Lemnian woman", written in <a href="/wiki/Linear_B" title="Linear B">Linear B</a> syllabic script.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Professor Della Seta reports:<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote><p>The lack of weapons of bronze, the abundance of weapons of iron, and the type of the pots and the pins gives the impression that the necropolis belongs to the ninth or eighth century B.C.

The Greek weapon, dagger or spear, is lacking: the weapons of the barbarians, the axe and the knife, are common.

This was done chiefly by the British and largely due to the urging of <a href="/wiki/Winston_Churchill" title="Winston Churchill">Winston Churchill</a>. The harbour at Moudros was put under the control of British Admiral <a href="/wiki/Rosslyn_Wemyss" class="mw-redirect" title="Rosslyn Wemyss">Rosslyn Wemyss</a>, who was ordered to prepare the then largely unused harbour for operations against the Dardanelles. </p><p>The harbour was broad enough for British and French warships, but lacked suitable military facilities, which was recognized early on. Troops intended for <a href="/wiki/Gallipoli" title="Gallipoli">Gallipoli</a> had to train in <a href="/wiki/Egypt" title="Egypt">Egypt</a>, and the port found it difficult to cope with casualties of the <a href="/wiki/Gallipoli_campaign" title="Gallipoli campaign">Gallipoli campaign</a>. The campaign was called off in evident failure at the close of 1915. Moudros' importance receded, although it remained the Allied base for the blockade of the Dardanelles during the war. The town of <a href="/wiki/Lemnos,_Victoria" title="Lemnos, Victoria">Lemnos, Victoria</a>, Australia, established in 1927 as a <a href="/wiki/Soldier_settlement_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Soldier settlement (Australia)">soldier settlement</a> zone for returning First World War soldiers, was named after the island.

A notable evacuation point was the Greek island of Lemnos where 18,000 Kuban Cossacks landed, though many later died of starvation and disease. Most left the island after a year. </p><p>During <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, the island was occupied by the Germans on 25 April 1941, in the wake of the <a href="/wiki/Wehrmacht" title="Wehrmacht">Wehrmacht</a>’s invasion of Greece, by the Infanterie Regiment 382/164 Inf.Division under the command of Oberst Wilhelm-<a href="/wiki/Helmuth_Beukemann" title="Helmuth Beukemann">Helmuth Beukemann</a>. The same bay of Moudros used by the Allies in WWI served as a base for German ships controlling the northern Aegean sea. An important fact is that the occupation forces included German punitive bataillon, the famous 999 units, in this case the <a href="/wiki/999th_Light_Afrika_Division_(Wehrmacht)" class="mw-redirect" title="999th Light Afrika Division (Wehrmacht)">999th Light Afrika Division (Wehrmacht)</a> and its Afrika Schützen Regiment 963 (later Festungs Infanterie Bataillon 999).
