Gozo (G?awdex), the second-largest island of the Maltese arcipelago with a population of around 31,000 people, is part of Malta and historically has long been identified as Ogygia, the domain of the nymph Calypso in Homer's Odyssey.
Gozo has been inhabited since 5000 BC and it is rich in historical locations from the Megalithic Temples of ?gantija, among the oldest surviving man-made structures, to the high concentration of churches. The history of Gozo is strongly coupled with the history of Malta, since Gozo has been governed by Malta throughout history.
