A number of recent studies, both archaeological and philological, have revived old arguments, in addition to presenting new evidence, for Euboian colonisation and pre‐colonisation in Macedonia, particularly the Chalkidike. As a result, a virtual consensus has arisen in current scholarship which views Euboia as an active early agent in the north Aegean Early Iron Age. A closer look at the evidence at hand, however, undermines rather than supports the arguments for Euboian pre‐eminence in the region and highlights the false and often hasty basis on which many arguments are founded. In addition to the archaeological, the philological evidence is reviewed and it is suggested that Chalkidike derives its name not from Euboian Chalkis but directly from chalkos and alludes to the rich metal deposits of the region
