At Apano Karkasa within a
ruined monastery survives
the small church of the Soter,
with wall-paintings from the
14th c. At Kato Karkasa, on
the S wall of a single-nave
church remain remnants of
frescoes from the late 14th
c. The church used to be the
catholicon of a monastery
founded by the scholar abbot
Neilos Damilas, leader of the
early Cretan Renaissance.
The two large despotic (altar
screen) icons of Christ Pan-
tokrator and Panagia Hode-
getria, both representative of
Constantinopolitan art of the
late 14th c., are kept in Males.
