Its name in Greek classical antiquity was "Kysos", and later "Kysus" under the Romans, close to Erythrae. The name Kysos is nevertheless associated with Homer since the Thracian king Rhesus, ally of the Trojans during the Trojan War and slain together with twelve of his men by Odysseus who had plotted to steal his magnificent horses, had a wife called Argantona (sometimes also spelled as Argantone), a mythical beauty and a master of animals like her husband, who inhabited the forests of Kysos [1]. Turkish sources always cited the town and the region as Çeşme since the first settlement 2 km south of the present-day center (Çeşmeköy) founded by Çaka Bey and pursued for some time by his brother Yalvaç before an interlude until the 14th century. More recent Greek sources use the name Κρήνη, transliterated; Kríni or Krēnē
