 In one of the Mycenaean clay tablets with inscriptions in Linear B script that were found in Thebes in 1995, the toponym Eutresis is written in the form "e-u-te-re-u".In the tablet (catalogued as TH Ft 140), Eutresis appears as the supplier of the largest quantity of oil in a series of locations that appear listed.According to the archaeologist Vassilis Aravantinos, at that time, Eutresis should be the second largest town in the area controlled by the palace of Thebes, after the capital.
