About Giólou
Giolou is a village in the Paphos District of Cyprus, located 20 km North of Paphos and 15 km South of Polis Chrysochous. At an altitude of about 300 meters from the sea, the settlement of Giolou is connected to the southwest and north to the main road that leads to Polis Chrysochous and Latsi, which in fact led to the identification of its name with the Turkish Cypriot word “yiol” and later with the wind god, Aeolus. The most prevalent version for the origins of its name, however, mentions the name of the feudal owner who had the village in his possession during the Byzantine era or during the period of the Frankish rule.
