 <br />
We know from Homer that Eretria, now a small town, sent ships to the Trojan War.  In the 8th century BC, Eretria and its nearby neighbour and rival, Chalkis, were both thriving trading cities. Towards the end of the 8th century BC, however, Eretria and Chalcis waged a long war for control of the fertile Lelantine Plain. Eretria was defeated, the city destroyed, and it lost its lands and possessions.<br />
 <br />
Around 424 BC Eretria came under the hegemony of Athens. In a naval battle off Eretria in 411 BC, the Spartan fleet, with the support of the people of Eretria, succeeded in destroying the Athenian ships. Following its liberation from Athenian hegemony, the polis experienced a new period of prosperity<br />
 <br />
Following the Greeks’ defeat at the hands of the Macedonians (338 BC), Macedonian influence began to take hold, first under Philip II of Macedon, then under his son Alexander the Great and his successors. In 198 BC, Eretria was conquered by the Romans.  After that, Eretria never regained the prosperity it had enjoyed in previous centuries.<br />
 <br />
Following a severe earthquake in 365, the site appears to have been only sporadically inhabited and seems to have been abandoned by 511 at the latest. Modern Eretria was not re-established until 1824, following the Greek War of Independence.<br />
 <br />
 <br />
The museum was built in 1960 and displays significant finds from the excavations of the ancient city of Eretria and the surrounding area from the Early Bronze Age to the period of Roman rule.<br />
<br />
As Eretria was abandoned and not built over, and has been systematically excavated since the late 19th century, the finds are abundant.</p>
