Stephanos of Byzantium - Ethnika
Eutresis: a village. Homer: "Kopai and Eutresis". It lies beside the road leading from Thespiai to Plataiai, which Zethos and Amphion walled. It was called Eutresis because it formerly had many lanes, as Epaphroditos. The villager Eutresites, from which Apollo Eutresites; and his sanctuary and most renowned oracle. For Eutresioi is a city of Arkadia and not an ethnic. There is also an adverb to the place Eutresinde, as Menelaos.
