Euonymeia
Euonymeia ((ギリシア語: Ευωνύμεια), ''Evonímia''), also known by its Medieval name Trachones ((ギリシア語:Τράχωνες)), and by its modern colloquial Ano Kalamaki ((ギリシア語:Άνω Καλαμάκι), Upper Kalamaki), is a historic settlement of Attica and currently a residential neighborhood within the municipality of Alimos on the South Side of Athens, Greece. The area displays some of the earliest urban settlements in Europe, with archeological sites showing significant development from the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods. Major archeological finds include Early Helladic fortifications, Mycenaean era workshops and necropolis, a classical era amphitheater, and Paleochristian and Byzantine temples. Some of the earliest and best preserved specimens of Athenian Geometric pottery have been attributed to the Trachones workshop and are featured in museum collections, including two kraters on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
==Etymology==
The name ''Euonymeia'' is documented in the Ethnica ((ギリシア語:Ἐθνικά)), the gazetteer by 6th century CE scholar Stephanus of Byzantium, considered the earliest authoritative work on Mediterranean toponyms. Therein, Stephanus attributes the name to Euonymus of Greek Mythology –son of Gaia with either Uranus or Cephissus. The name itself derives from the Greek root-words ''eû'' ((ギリシア語:εὖ)) "good, well", and ''onoma'' ((ギリシア語:όνομα)) "name". Alternative interpretations for the origin of the name are that it is a direct reference to the area being "well named" or "of good repute", or that it comes from the spindle tree ''Euonymus europaeus''. The medieval name ''Trachones'' derives from the word ''trachoni'' ((ギリシア語:τραχώνι)) meaning "rock", derived from the ancient Greek adjective ''trachys'' ((ギリシア語:τραχύς)) meaning "coarse". The modern colloquial name ''Ano Kalamaki'' (upper Kalamaki) arose in 1968 when Euonymeia was administratively linked with the coastal settlement of Kalamaki to the west, creating the contemporary Municipality of Alimos.
