Hyle (grc|Ὕλη) was a town in ancient Boeotia, situated upon Lake Hylica, which derived its name from this place.[1] It is mentioned by Homer in the Catalogue of Ships, and elsewhere, in the Iliad.
The toponym of Hyle, written in Linear B script, appears in one of the clay tablets recovered in 1995 at Thebes.[2]
Its site is located near modern Oungra.
