The first inhabitants on this island of Folegandro were Aegeans. There were many different cultures that occupied this island, including the Egyptians. The island city Chora has seen many a turmoil. Because of this turmoil, the Greeks were known to favor blue to ward off evil. You can see this significance in the donkey's bright blue cloth, beckoning blue resting chair, intriguing blue doorway, clear blue sky, and even the Mediterranean's blue reflection dancing of the window panes
