Learning About the History of Mykonos?

[auroracoor1]

While on Mykonos, are there places to go, or maybe even tours to take, that can help me learn abut the history of the place?

I know there are some museums, like the Archaeological Museum and the Folklore Museum, but aside from that, I am looking for places to go that will kind of bring the history alive. I do plan to visit Delos as a day trip, I know the history of that small island is connected to Mykonos. That's all I can think of, though. Anything you can tell me is very much appreciated!

There is a maritime museum somewhere on Mykonos, which is a nice change of pace from the archeological museums. There are also art galleries all over the place, which are more cultural than historical, but they can put the history of the island in context.
