[German version] This item can be found on the following maps: Mycenaean culture and archaeology | Aegean Koine | Boeotia, Boeotians (Εὔτρησις;
Eútrēsis). Boeotian settlement near the modern Leuctra. The settlement mound, Arkophodi by its modern name, was on the road from Thespiae to Plataea.

Later, despite its allegedly famous Apollo oracle, it became no more than a dependent settlement within the territory of Thespiae. Source references: Hell.
