Between Melissochori and Lefktra there is Eutresis. It is a 500m long plain of exceptional beauty.
The entire hill is called Acropodi from the name of the source. The spring was used to supply the settlement with water. The area is considered to be of great archaeological importance. Archaeological remains prove that the site had an organized settlement already from the Neolithic Period (6800-3200 BC). It was also an important settlement during the Bronze Age and during the Mycenaean period it was fortified with a cyclopean wall. Around the 6th century BC there was a sanctuary and oracle of Apollo Eutresites.
Finds of the sanctuary have been found while the bronze and clay votive offerings date back to the 6th and 5th centuries. On the southern slope of the hill there are indications of the presence of another sanctuary. Near the cemetery a part of a farmhouse of Hellenistic – Roman times was discovered. The farmhouse contains inscriptions that were built into the walls and two sculptures.
To the northeast of the hill a section of wall was found, which the first excavators considered part of a fortified enclosure. At the same time parts of a fortified enclosure were found on the southern slope of the hill and a medieval tower of square plan topped the hill.
