The purpose of this paper is twofold. On one hand, the Cycladic urban environment will be investigated as a result of a complex procedure, where the leading role was for the secluded island societies influenced by their own strong cultural past, while simultaneously receiving external effects from the various dominating powers. On the other hand, the rules of indigenous customary law, concerning land ownership and land uses will be explored. On a second level, the paper aims to look at the architectural and urban elements of the Cycladic built environment, searching for those customary laws that formed the built and public space. In any case, this approach does not aspire to interpret the complexity of traditional Cycladic settlements formation, but to reveal through a specific glance an aspect of this phenomenon and thus to contribute in an effort of systematic analysis.
