In the ATL text of the Erythrai Decree (D 10.2) has been restored in the heading after the epistates, but the editors do not provide cogent grounds for their preference; there seems no good reason for abandoning the old view that the lambda is the first letter of the proposer's name (Tod i no. 29, p. 46).

⁸ Scholiast on Aristoph. Wasps 718 (716 D): Gomme (op. cit. iii 592) is sceptical about this expedition, but concedes that ‘some quite small affair’ may have been omitted by Thucydides. A. E. Raubitschek, however, accepting Philochoros, linked the expedition with Athens' intrigues in Boeotia and the reorganisa tion of the Euboean τεμένη, to which IG i² 376 testifies; see Hesp. xii 28 ff. His attempt to correct Philochoros' date (to 426/425) was firmly rejected by F. Jacoby, who regards the expedition of 424/423 as a certainty; see FGH iii b (Suppl.) i 504 and ii 407 (on 328 F 130).

Drakontides could have been general at the time and thus proposed the decree. But even 430 presents diffi culties. It is hard to reconcile the decree with the movements of Hagnon, who seems to have moved a rider. Adcock made him author of a later decree, amending the procedure in Pericles' case (p. 478). But this can hardly be read out of Plutarch.

¹⁴ For Cleon as the scourge of generals and Council see Knights 353 ff. (with Thuc. iv 27, 3–5) and 363. From Wasps 288 ff. and Peace 639 ff. we learn that he inspired rigorous inquiries among the allies into collusion with Brasidas; Wasps 474 ff. shows that Athenians were also implicated.

¹⁵ Wasps 240 ff. and 836–1008 ( prosecutes the dog ): SEG x 80 (IG i² 87+: the Halieis Treaty) and Thuc. iv 118, 11 (the Truce Decree). He fought at Delium in the autumn (Plato, , Symposium, 221 AGoogle Scholar). Cleon perhaps tried to make him finally responsible for the Sicilian failure in summer 424; compare Thuc. iv 65, 2–4 with Wasps 894 ff.

²⁰ Peace 1084 (Prytaneion); Lampon enjoyed the same privilege (Schol. Birds 521). Eupolis saluted Hierokles in his Cities as for its date see Edmonds, op. cit. 387 ff. (March 422?).

²¹ Lines 64 ff. Aristophanes calls Hierokles ὁ χρηαμολόγος οὑξ 'Ώρεοῦ (Peace 1047; cf. 1125 f.). Tod (i 85) suggests ‘perhaps he was rewarded for his prophecies by the grant of an estate there’. Why should he not have been simply one of the cleruchs sent to Hestiaia in 445? The use of the pre-cleruchy name (Theopompus apud Strabo x i 445: FGH 115 F 387) in 421 presumably implies an insinuation of alien birth, as the scholiasts recognise.

²² For the date of the Bottiaian Treaty see Gomme, op. cit. iii 622 and 633. Tod (i 167) made 33 f. provide for the return of the hostages to the Bottiaians.

²³ For the date of IG i² 71 see Gomme, op. cit. iii 621 f., against ATL iii 313 ff., n. 61 (c. 436; see Thuc. i 57.2). In lines 33 ff. the weight of the clause falls on the participle (conditional), as in D 17, 15.

²⁴ See Meritt, , Hesp. x 324Google Scholar for good comments on the unusual probouleuma of IG i² 70; Wilhelm, A. (Sitzber. Akad. Wien 1939, 56 and 71)Google Scholar had argued that the probouleuma ended in line 30, the rest being added by Hermodoros in the Assembly.

²⁵ Thuc. iii 92.4 and 93.1.

²⁶ See Thuc. iv 91; 96.9 and 97.1; 99. Athens intervened in Boeotia on the invitation of exiles and malcontents from Orchomenos, Thebes and elsewhere (Thuc. iv 76). As late as summer 423 Thebes was dealing severely with Thespiai for ἀττικισμός (Thuc. iv 133. 1). Boeotians were possibly behind the Euboean revolt of 446 (Euboean exiles had helped free Boeotia the previous year; Thuc. i 113.2); they encouraged and supported Mytilene in 428/427 (Thuc. iii 2.3 and 5.2); they largely engineered the Euboean revolt of 411 (Thuc. viii 60.1).

²⁸ 213 D (on ); For 446/445 see Gomme, op. cit. i 345 and ATL iii 294 f., where the editors argue that the tribute of Eretria was reduced from 6 to 3, of Chalcis from 5 to 3 talents in the final settlement.

³² Under the terms of ATL ii D 7 (IG i² 66+) and 8 (IG i² 65+) demands for payment were promptly lodged with defaulters after the Dionysia (see lines 22–28 and 16–18). For the tribute-ships see Meritt, 's brilliant demonstration (Studies in Honour of D. M. Robinson ii 298 ff.)Google Scholar that IG i² 97 (formerly linked with Melos, 416) is a decree of c. 430 establishing this specialised task-force. Meritt's new text appears as SEG xii 25. He has been powerfully backed by Eberhardt, W. (Hist, viii 298 ff.)Google Scholar against Treu, M.'s attempt to restore the status quo (Hist, iii 58).Google Scholar

³³ D 17, 26 f. and 16.11 f. This clause is similarly interpreted in ATL iii 294 f. (but of 446/445).

³⁴ D 17, 52 ff.: My view of the grammar is substantially that of Hicks, and Hill, (GHI ²66 f.)Google Scholar, Tod (no. 42, p. 86) and ATL ii 72. There is strong scholarly support for identifying the exempted ξένοι mainly as Athenian metics (Hicks and Hill; see also the discussion in Tod), but the ἀτελεῖς surely include non-Athenian metics. The dogmatism of ATL iii 297 seems unjustified; the editors write of this clause ‘No class of non-Athenians could be so described; these must have been the klerouchs’. For them D 17, 52–57 becomes ‘the clearest reference to Athenian klerouchs in Chalkis’. For this cleruchy, which has been doubted, see n. 57. Athenian metics were liable for military service in the fifth century (Thuc. ii 13.7 and 31.2); they are found paying εἰσφορά regularly in the fourth (RE v 2150 and xv 1447 f.).

³⁵ IG i² 144 and 155+ (SEG x 108): Hesp. x 328 ff.: Plutarch Nicias 12.4 and Alcib. 18.2.

³⁶ This point emerges clearly from study of all the decrees in IG i² and SEG x which have their prescripts preserved. IG i² 144 cannot be of 424/423, since Phainippos (not Archikles) was then secretary of the Akamantid prytany (Thuc. iv 118.7).

³⁹ See Menu's, study of IG i ²68Google Scholar/9+ (SEG x 81) in Hesp. xiv 105–15 (especially 113). ἀτελεία does not appear in the extant text, but this is very fragmentary. Potamodoros and Eurytion certainly received ἀτελεία; in the text as restored (IG i² 70+ = SEG x 84.12 f.) it is qualified by If this is correct it fits in neatly with Meritt's reconstruction of IG i² 144+, 24 ff. (Proxenides), where the limits are specified. The editors restore in IG i² 70, 14, which implies normal residence elsewhere; IG i² 103 (SEG x 114), 11 f. could be restored (or ) They might well have found it expedient to leave Euboea in 412/411, when discontent there was growing towards open revolt (Thuc. viii 60.1).

⁴⁰ Thuc. i 114.3; Plutarch, Per. 23.4 Gelon and Hieron had set the example in Sicily (Her. vii 156: Diod. xi 49.1–2).

⁴¹ Thuc. ii 27.1 (Aegina); 70.3–4 (Poteidaia); iii 68 (Plataea); iii 36.2 and 49 (Mytilene); iv 122.6 (Scione); v 1.1 (Delos). The promise to Chalcis was conditional on loyal obedience to Athens (D 17, 14 ff.); if that failed all the guarantees lapsed.

⁴² See Gomme, , CR I 7 ff.Google Scholar and op. cit. i 342 f. with ns. He insists that ἔφεαις means ‘compulsory reference’ (to an Athenian court), not ‘a right of appeal’; the same point is well made by Hopper, R. J., JHS liii 37.Google Scholar Wade-Gery, however, makes ἔφεσις ‘appeal against a judgement’ (however provisional); see Essays in Greek History, 192–5.

⁴³ (of the hostages). Tod equates this with τὸ φσέφισμα of line 76 (no. 42, P. 84).

⁴⁴ Ch. 47: The defendant, a Mytilenean, was being tried at Athens for murder and we learn from ch. 60 f. that Lykinos could have prosecuted Herodes there on a capital charge. There is no evidence that Herodes was a cleruch (pace Gomme, op. cit. i 242) nor is it likely that Lykinos was an Athenian. The three men were presumably all Lesbian. Gomme apparently came round to this view; see op. cit. ii 331 n. 2 (following Roussel, P., Mél. Glotz 817 ff.Google Scholar).

⁴⁵ See ‘Xen.’, Ἀθ. Πολ., i 14–16; Aristoph, . Wasps 288 ff.Google Scholar: Peace 639 f.; Birds 1454 fr.; Thuc. i 77.1; Isoc. iv 113 and xii 63 and 66. See Gomme, op. cit. i 241 ff. and Hopper, op. cit. 36 f. The decree must fall after that for Erythrai, which was allowed capital jurisdiction even in cases of treason to the Confederacy; see ATL ii D 10 (IG i² 10+), 29 ff.

⁴⁶ D 8 (IG i² 65+): D 3–4 (IG i² 57), 13 ff. and 41 ff.: IG i² 76 (Tod, no. 74). The archon's name is not included in the prescript of the last decree; this recommends Ziehen's dating (423/422; see Prott/ Ziehen, Leges Graecorum sacrae e titulu collectae ii 25) against attempts to put it after the Peace of Nicias. For full bibliography see SEG x 110 and xii 34.

⁴⁷ Thuc. iv 130.7. Gomme contrasts the concession with the Chalcis clause as representing a ‘greater degree of autonomy’ (op. cit. i 342 n. 2).

⁴⁸ See D 7, 31–43; the law-court decides D 8 apparently made the ἐκλογεῖς liable (lines 5 ff.) if a city defaulted; by 43 ff. any offending against the decree are to be tried at Athens, again with the possibility of a purely pecuniary penalty (50 ff.). D 14 § 4 has been plausibly restored to read The context proves that they are local officials.

⁴⁹ Hesp. xii 32 f. (on IG i² 376+ = SEG x 304). τεμένη are recorded at Chalcis (lines 3, 11 and 22), Eretria (9 and 14), Poseideion? (16 and 26) and Hestiaia (6).

⁵⁰ See Dem. xx 115 (nothing about Aristides): Plut. Arist. 27.2. Raubitschek discusses the identity of this Alcibiades (loc. cit.), deciding for the famous bearer of the name. Alcibiades will have proposed the decree when chairman of the τακταί in 425 (‘Andocides’ iv 11). But if he ever held this office it must have been in 422/421, since only then was he old enough for membership of the Council; see RE i 1517 ff.

⁵⁶ Only the Hestiaian τέμενος need be as early as 446/445 (SEG x 304.6). For the Poletai records of 414/413 see SEG xiii 12–22, Stele i 90 and vi 151 (Eretria); ii 178 and 312 (Lelantine Plain). Raubitschek identified Panaitios, lessee of the Hestiaian τέμενος, with one of the Hermocopidai (op. cit. 31 and n. 65). Oionios' holding in the Lelantine Plain could be part of Athena's τέμενος which Aelian locates there. For Cos and Samos see Inscriptions of Cos (Paton and Hicks) no. 148; SEG i 375 f., BCH viii 160 and IGA 8. For this point see further Gomme, op. cit. i 347 n. 2.

⁵⁷ Plutarch does not say that Athenians were settled, as Gomme well noted (op. cit. i 344 f.), supporting Nesselhauf, 's view (Klio, Beiheft xxx 135 ff.)Google Scholar that the land was leased out to Chalcidian smallholders. For Lesbos see Gomme, op. cit. ii 326–32 and Meritt, , AJP lxxv 361–8.Google Scholar For Samos see Thuc. viii 21 and IG i² mi as restored with commentary by Lewis, D. M. in BSA xlix 29 ff.Google Scholar (SEG xiv 9, 4–8). The ATL arguments for a real cleruchy at Chalcis (iii 295 ff.) are ingenious, but inconclusive; for another cleruchy at Eretria they can adduce only Thuc. viii 95.6 (an Athenian τείχισμα in their plain). There seems to be a suggestion of at least partial expulsion of Chalcidians in Thuc. vi 76.2; Her. vii 156 (on Gelon and Sicilian Megara) surely reflects the typically Athenian reasoning on which such a policy rested.

⁶⁰ For a good statement of the orthodox position see Raubitschek, , AJP lxxi 477 ff.Google Scholar and Hesp. xii 18 n. 1. D. M. Lewis was very hesitant, in view of this dogma, in suggesting 445 as the date for the Aegina Decree with three-barred sigma (BSA xlix 22). Within such narrow limits is it confining scholarship.
