Oinofyta (Greek: Οινόφυτα) is a village and former municipality in eastern Boeotia, Greece. Following the local government reform of 2011, it is now part of the municipality of Tanagra, of which it is a municipal unit.[2] It was formerly named Staniates (Στανιάτες) until 1927.[3] Within the territory of the municipal unit lies the ancient town of Oenophyta, where the Battle of Oenophyta was fought in 457 BCE.

For decades, factories had been dumping waste in the Asopos River, whose waters run from red to black and ripple with bubbling sludge.[6]
