todo the word appears also on obscure stone fragments in Chalcis, Euboea:
"The first inscriptions are rarely public documents, being for the most part private dedications and especially epitaphs. We nonetheless have in Eretria a remarkable law dating from about 530 BC which refers to the control exercised by the city over navigation on the waters of the Euboean strait, from the southernmost point of Euboea (the Petaliai islands) to its northern extremity, formed by Cape Kenaion. Various documents complete the picture of Eretrian epigraphy in the Archaic Period (in the broadest sense of the term): an honorific decree that is among the most ancient in the Greek world, a few fragments of funerary or votive epigrams and, already toward the end of the 5th century BC, a fine dedication of a herm made by the association of the Aeinautai (literally, "perpetual navigators")."
