It is now uninhabited but it was inhabited in the Early Cycladic period and evolved an important civilization, as is clear from the fine finds from excavations here: Cycladic figurines – including the famous Keros Flautist and Harpist (National Archaeological Museum in Athens) – pottery, vessels, tools, etc.
In the ancient times it was called Keria.
