The name originally derives from the Istroyan Goddess of the Stars, Asteia, a derivative from the Aegoskopeion pantheon of the goddess Astreya. The settlement name later changed to Astecleum during the latinisation of Istroyan civilisation after the decline, with the polis being used as an ancient port. of Astecleum was once again Istroyanised and the name Asteklion remains intact throughout history to the present day. | |||

Earliest known evidence of the presence of human ancestors in Asteklian territory dates back to 3rd millennium BC, where archaeologists discovered ruins that may elude to a ritual site used for sacrifice by the ancient Aegoskopeion civilisation that predates the Istroyans by thousands of years and is theorised to have served as the socioeconomic foundation for the Istroyan civilisation. Asteklion has been continuously inhabited for at least 5,000 years. By 1300 BC, the site had become a prosperous fishing site and was soon settled by the Istroyans and developed into a polis centuries later. | Earliest known evidence of the presence of human ancestors in Asteklian territory dates back to 3rd millennium BC, where archaeologists discovered ruins that may elude to a ritual site used for sacrifice by the ancient Aegoskopeion civilisation that predates the Istroyans by thousands of years and is theorised to have served as the socioeconomic foundation for the Istroyan civilisation.
