The ancient city of Mykalessos in Boeotia was inhabited from the first half of III millenium BC. Mykalessos is first mentioned by Homer1.As a town of Boeotian League Mykalessos flourished in the VI and V centuries. BC, In 413 BC town was destructed and the massacre of its inhabitants by of Thracian mercenaries hired by Athens. Pausanias: Adjoining are the ruins of the cities Harma （Chariot） and Mycalessus. [..] Both peoples agree that Mycalessus was so named because the cow lowed （emykesato） here that was guiding Cadmus and his host to Thebes. How Mycalessus was laid waste I have related in that part of my history that deals with the Athenians. On the way to the coast of Mycalessus is a sanctuary of Mycalessian Demeter. They say that each night it is shut up and opened again by Heracles, and that Heracles is one of what are called the Idaean Dactyls. Here is shown the following marvel. Before the feet of the image they place all the fruits of autumn, and these remain fresh throughout all the year. At this place the Euripus separates Euboea from Boeotia. On the right is the sanctuary of Mycalessian Demeter. 3
