Yeap!!!

I think you found a young scolopendra cingulata. I see a couple of photos labeled as young Cingulata which look similar.

Here in Greece is also cold in winter, but Centipedes start to emerge by the end of March. In summer when the tempratures are high i think they burrow in the ground to avoid the heat. I found this guy in a forest with a river near by, and the tempratures there go a bit cool at night. Centipedes dont like very high tempratures.

S.cingulata. They are basically everywhere in southern Italy, Greece, other Mediterranean nations. Amazing 'pedes.

This is, without a doubt, a S. cingulata. Greece has a few different color schemes for this species. Post a photo of it in a few years - it would be nice to know which morph it is since all juveniles start with practically the same colors.
