INTRODUCTION by MOGENS HERMAN HANSEN
The Copenhagen Polis Centre closed down in 2005;1 so this is, in fact, a posthumous publication or – rather – a posthumous republication of a series of studies that appeared in the 1990s scattered over a number of our publications. One of the primary aims of the Polis Centre was to produce a comprehensive inventory of all known Archaic and Classical poleis, including colonies, attested in contemporary sources. The plan was to compare this inventory with all general references to the nature of the polis in the same sources, and then, on the basis of an analysis of both the intension and the extension of the concept, to find out what the Greeks thought a polis was, and to compare that with what modern historians think an ancient Greek city-state was. Thus in this part of our work we preferred the emic to the etic view preferred by some others,2 and, in all our publications, we have carefully avoided mixing up the two di·erent approaches: the concept of polis is an ancient concept and reflects the ancient Greeks’ understanding of their own political and social order, whereas the concept of city-state is a modern heuristic concept invented by historians to describe not only the Greek polis but also a number of other city-state cultures ranging from the Mixtec city-states in Mexico to the Malay city-states in Indonesia, and from the Viking city-states in Ireland to the Swahili city-states in Kenya and Tanzania.3 Building up our inventory of Archaic and Classical poleis we conducted an investigation of the use and meanings of the term πλις in all Archaic and Classical sources. We did it author by author and genre by genre, and most of these individual investigations were published in the CPCActs and CPCPapers as articles or appendices to articles. They appeared in the years 1994 to 2000. In the course of this period we refined our methods and obtained a clearer picture of how best to describe the di·erent meanings of πλις in accordance with the di·erent contexts in which the word appeared. In the earlier studies the sources are cited, in the later ones they are quoted, and whenever it was felt necessary the quote is followed by an explanation of why 1

The Copenhagen Polis Centre was a research institution set up and funded by the Danish National Research Foundation for a ten-year period which expired in September 2003. Our Inventory of Archaic and Classical Poleis was submitted to Oxford University Press in May 2003 and to see it through to publication the Centre was prolonged until the Spring of 2005.

we think that polis in this particular passage is used in the urban or in the political sense – or in both senses simultaneously – and whether the territorial sense is a connotation or perhaps even the principal meaning, with either the urban or the political sense as the connotation. Our investigation is focused on Hellenic poleis to the exclusion of barbarian ones, but it is often di¶cult to draw the line, and over the years we have changed our minds in a number of cases. Also, the occurrence of the word polis in a passage must be interpreted di·erently according to whether polis refers to one or more poleis specifically, or is used as a kind of heading under which a number of communities are listed, of which most but not necessarily all were actually poleis.4 A clearer understanding and treatment of these and similar issues emerged in the course of the years and therefore I have felt an obligation to revise and update all the disparate studies and to make all the studies more uniform in the way the evidence is presented and analysed.5 Four new studies have been added to the revised versions of previously published studies: one about the use of polis in the sense of territory or hinterland, and three about polis referring to named towns in Aineias the Tactician, in the philosophers, and in the poets. Some of our colleagues, including some reviewers of our many publications, have found that investigating whether a community is attested as a polis in contemporary sources is not the most important question one can ask. It is more important to find out whether, e.g., a polis had a mint, or a bouleuterion, or an army, whether it was fortified or is attested as party to a treaty, etc. I have two replies. 1. In the Polis Centre we wanted to investigate the concept of polis. It is a commonplace, but nevertheless true, that language is the medium in which concepts are expressed and words are the principal traces which ancient concepts have left behind for the modern historian to study. Symbols expressed in painting or sculpture or architecture etc. are important accessories, but it would be unwise to conduct an investigation of an ancient concept without focusing first on the words used to express it and the contexts in which these words appear.6 2. We claim that a number of important political activities were characteristic of poleis and, taken together, describe the essence of what it was to be a polis in the political sense. Of the criteria frequently referred to I can mention: striking coins, possessing a prytaneion or a bouleuterion, having a boule or a board of strategoi, being a member of a major league (e.g. the Delian League) or of a federation, being party to a treaty, providing a unit of hoplites for a multipolate army, declaring war or concluding peace, filling the o¶ce of naopoios or hieromnemon in the Amphiktyonic League, bestowing proxenia on a foreigner or having proxenia bestowed on one of the communities’ citizens, appointing a theorodokos to host the theoroi who were sent out to announce one of the pan-Hellenic festivals, having a citizen as victor in one of the pan-Hellenic games, having a patron god or goddess, 4 5

See Hansen (1997). The chapters of which Thomas Heine Nielsen is the author or co-author and the list of attestations of polis in the sense of state in inscriptions have been revised by the two of us in collaboration. Thomas Heine Nielsen has added the section about Palaiphatos on pages 187–90. I am responsible for the revision of the other chapters. For our views about the possibility and desirability of conducting investigations based on the etic view and starting from, e.g., the archaeological evidence, see CPCInv. 24–6.

being perceived as patris by the members of the community, being organised as a demokratia or being ruled by a tyrant, etc.7 But how do we know that it was a characteristic of the polis, e.g., to strike coins? There is only one way of finding out: to start with an investigation of the word polis and (a) look for sources which assert in general terms that it is a characteristic of the polis to strike coins; and (b) build up a corpus of individual communities explicitly attested as poleis and then ascertain that a large number of these communities did strike coins, whereas not one single example can be found of coins struck by a kome or a phyle or any other form of urban settlement or civic subdivision.8 On the basis of this evidence we can now infer that an urban settlement which struck coins must have been a polis and that if it is not called a polis in any extant source, it must be due to an accidental loss of relevant sources. Similar investigations must be conducted for all the other characteristics listed above, and out of all these investigations we can establish the extension of the concept of polis and draw up a map of the entire Greek polis world. There is one more aspect of the use and meanings of the word polis which has been essential for our attempt to draw up in inventory of all the poleis which together constituted the ancient Greek city-state culture. An investigation of the word polis shows that it has several meanings and that the two predominant meanings are “town” and “state”, with the “hinterland” (of the town) or the “territory” (of the state) as a much less frequently attested third meaning, associated either with the meaning of “town” or with the meaning of “state”. In many cases polis is used in both senses simultaneously – that is why city-state is such a good rendering of polis – but in as many other sources polis is used either in the sense of town (often including the hinterland) or in the sense of state (often including the territory). Now, if polis in the sense of town and in the sense of state was often used to denote essentially di·erent objects, it would be a waste of time to draw up an inventory of all poleis. Some of the entries would describe a town which was not the centre of a state, and others would describe a state which had no urban centre. The validity of the Polis Centre’s enterprise depends on our observation that the di·erent meanings are connected through the reference: with very few exceptions – if any at all – every polis town was the urban centre of a polis state, and conversely: every polis state had an urban centre called a polis in the sense of town. This observation is what we have called the lex Hafniensis de civitate (described and discussed 13–51 infra) and the inverted lex Hafniensis de civitate (described and discussed 52–66 infra).

For a list of the characteristics of a polis, see the Polis Centre’s Database Card printed in Hansen (1996) 55–62. Most of these characteristics are discussed in the introduction to CPCInv. See CPCInv. 144–49, 1382–9. On 145–6 there is a discussion of criteria for establishing the di·erence between coins struck by poleis and by multipolate islands, federations, alliances, sanctuaries, rulers and mercenary leaders. The overwhelming majority of all Greek coins of the Archaic and Classical periods were struck by poleis, but the evidence also shows that far from all poleis struck coins, see 149.

WAS EVERY POLIS TOWN THE CENTRE OF A POLIS STATE? by MOGENS HERMAN HANSEN
This article is a survey of the Copenhagen Polis Centre’s investigation of the word polis and sums up the conclusions originally stated in a number of articles published in our two series: CPCActs and CPCPapers,1 and here reprinted in revised form. On the basis of these studies we have formulated what we call the lex Hafniensis de civitate. As set out in Hansen (1996) 28 and 33, it runs as follows: “in Archaic and Classical sources the term polis used in the sense of town to denote a named urban centre is applied not just to any urban centre but only to a town which was also the centre of a polis in the sense of political community. Thus, the term polis has two di·erent meanings: town and state; but even when it is used in the sense of town its reference, its denotation, seems almost invariably to be what the Greeks called polis in the sense of a koinonia politon politeias and what we call a city-state.” The lex Hafniensis applies to Greek poleis only. For the use of polis in relation to barbarian communities, see 20–2 infra.
I By way of introduction I shall list the evidence on which our investigation is based and explain the method used in the analysis of this evidence. 1. The lex Hafniensis is an observation of how the word polis is used in ancient Greek prose down to ca. 300 BC. The whole investigation starts from the universally accepted view (a) that the word polis has several di·erent meanings, of which “nucleated settlement” and “political community” are the most common,2 (b) that in many passages it bears one of these two senses, but not the other, whereas (c) there are many other passages in which the word is used in both senses simultaneously. In some of these passages the principal sense is “political community” and “nucleated 1 2
See the list 7–8 supra. For “nucleated settlement” and “political community” as the two principal meanings of polis, see Hansen (1998) 17–20, 31– 4. For the less common territorial meaning of polis (polis = city plus hinterland = territory), see 67–72 infra. For the rare attestations of polis used synonymously with akropolis, see Hansen (1996) 34–6 to which I would like to add I.Ephesos 1.2, C6; I.Cret. III.iii.3B.10–11, C3–C2. For a discussion of attestations in literature of polis in the sense of akropolis, see Wyse (1904) 476–7.

settlement” is a connotation; in other passages it is just the opposite. The purpose of the investigation is to study the relation between meaning and reference for both the urban sense and the political sense, and to assert that, via the reference, the two di·erent senses can be shown to be much more closely connected than most contemporary ancient historians are prepared to believe.3 2. The point of departure has been, in Archaic and Classical texts, to isolate occurrences of polis used in the sense of “nucleated settlement”;4 next in all cases in which the reference is to a named and identifiable nucleated settlement to investigate whether this settlement is also attested as a polis in the sense of “political community”. 3. To be cautious I have spoken so far about “nucleated settlement” versus “political community”. In the following I shall use “urban centre”, “town” and “city” synonymously with “nucleated settlement”, and “state” synonymously with “political community”. In other studies I have argued (a) that the Hellenic polis as an urban centre was indeed what can reasonably be called a “town” or a “city”5, and (b) that as a political community it was, in many important respects, what we today call a state.6 Thus, I find it legitimate to render polis by these terms, i.e. “town” or “city”, when the word occurs in an urban context, and “state” when the context is political. But let me stress that for the present investigation it makes no di·erence whether the polis was really a city and a state in the usual sense of these terms. The aim of the study is to compare the urban and the political senses of the word polis used about Hellenic communities and, via the reference, to demostrate that the two aspects are virtually inseparable. 4. To illustrate how we distinguish between the di·erent senses I find it expedient to list some examples which show that it is possible to isolate occurrences of polis (a) used in the urban sense without the political, (b) used in the political sense without the urban, and (c) used in both senses simultaneously. Re (a): polis in the urban sense is attested, e.g., when a polis is opposed to its hinterland (called chora or ge);7 when one walks from the polis into the fields, or returns from the fields into the town;8 when the distance from a polis is measured in 3

It is commonly held that polis in the urban sense can denote a nucleated settlement which was not the political centre of a city-state: Macan (1908) 156–7; Hampl (1937) 48, see 36 and 46 infra; Kahrstedt (1954) 25; Zahrnt (1971) 10 (Thorikos, see 41, 100–1 infra) and 221 (Sane, see 122 infra); Sakellariou (1989); 158–9; Ste. Croix (1981) 428 (late poleis); repeated by Burke (1986) 139; L‹evy (1990) 54; Bresson (1993) 222; Rhodes (1995) 97; Bowden (1996) 29; Knoepfler (1997) 401 with note 332; Funke (1997) 179 n. 36; Mertens (2002) 290.

the political sense too. They are, in alphabetical order: Aigition, Anthene, Chalkis, Ephyra, Kythera, Methana, Orobiai, Skandeia, Sollion and Thyrea. Conversely, many historians hold that Sparta was a polis in the political but not in the urban sense. Ephyra in Epeiros and Aigition in Aitolia are unknown from other sources. Chalkis and Sollion are described as belonging to the Korinthians; Anthene, Kythera, Methana and Thyrea were perioikic Lakedaimonian communities, and in the last two cases Thucydides seems to apply the word polis to second-order settlements in the territory of larger poleis: Orobiai was apparently a deme in the territory of Histiaia/Oreos, and Skandeia was the harbour of Kythera, itself a Lakedaimonian perioikic community. On Ephyre there is nothing more to say. We simply have to suspend judgement. The polis status of the other nine communities, however, deserves closer investigation. 1. Aigition. In Thucydides’ description of Aitolia there is an opposition between 3.94.4: τ$ γ3ρ "θνος µ+γα µ2ν εRναι τ$ τ0ν Α;τωλ0ν κα µ χιµον, ο;κο>ν δ2 κατ3 κGµας 7τειχ(στους, κα τα1τας δι3 πολλο> and 3.97.2: . . . χGρει (∆ηµοσθ+νης) π
Α;γιτ(ου, κα κατ3 κρ τος αρε πιGν. Bπ+φευγον γ3ρ ο Mνθρωποι κα κ θηντο π
τ0ν λφων τ0ν Bπ2ρ τς πλεως. At first glance the opposition between the general description of the Aitolians as settled in scattered komai, and the specific description of Aigition as a polis looks like an inconsistency, but the apparent contradiction disappears when the two passages are studied in context: the reference to Aigition as a polis is a classification made by Thucydides himself, whereas the information about habitation in scattered komai is not evidence reported by Thucydides himself in a kind of historical digression. It is a paraphrase in indirect speech of what the Messenians told the Athenian general Demosthenes in order to persuade him to attack the Aitolians. Thus, it has the same status as, e.g., what the Egestaioi told the Athenians in 415 in order to talk them into the Sicilian campaign (Thuc. 6.6.·.), and, if it suited their case, we should expect the Messenians to exaggerate or even to lie about how the Aitolians were organised and settled. We do not have to believe that all Aitolians lived in unfortified villages (κατ3 κGµας 7τειχ(στους) although that is obviously the picture of Aitolia which the Messenians want to convey to Demosthenes. As Funke has pointed out,15 archaeological evidence does in fact indicate that some of the Aitolian settlements were fortified already in the Classical period. So in that respect the Messenians’ report is demonstrably false. Thus, according to Thucydides, Aigition was a polis when Demosthenes attacked Aitolia in 426, and, if we allow for some exaggeration in what the Messenians tell Demosthenes, there is no reason to believe that Thucydides’ site classification is idiosyncratic or mistaken. But what can we infer from this site classification? At 3.97.2 Thucydides is indisputably using the term polis in its urban sense and the inference is that Aigition was a nucleated settlement of some size and importance, but was it also a political community, i.e. a polis in the political sense of the term? In 426 BC the Aitolians were subdivided into three large “tribes”, the Apodotoi, the Ophiones and the Eurytanes. Each of these “tribes” was subdivided into smaller 15 Funke (1997), cf. CPCInv. 379–86.
Thucydides

political units, of which some were smaller “tribes” settled in komai. But not all the komai were unfortified and at least one nucleated settlement, namely Aigition, was described as a polis. It is commonly and correctly assumed that the emergence in Aitolia of poleis in the political sense was not a consequence of a major reform by which a federation was formed, but that polis formation developed gradually, and that during a certain period a tribal organisation of Aitolia co-existed with an emerging polis organisation, which happens to be attested in one particular case: namely that of Aigition; and we cannot preclude the possibility that there may have been a few other similar poleis.16 2. Chalkis and Sollion. In Thucydides three west Greek communities are described as Korinthian poleis, viz. Anaktorion (4.49.1), Chalkis (1.108.5) and Sollion (2.30.1). The two first are called a Κορινθ(ων πλις (not Κορινθ(ων 7ποικ(α, cf. Molykreion at 3.102.2), whereas Sollion is called Κορινθ(ων πλισµα, but two lines further on πλις is used synonymously with πλισµα. In all three cases polis is used in the urban sense. Were these communities poleis in the political sense as well? Many of the Korinthian colonies in western Greece were in fact dependencies,17 and polis status is strongly indicated for Anaktorion: it struck pegasus coins in C5 and it is twice listed under the heading polis used in the political sense (1.46.1–2 and 2.9.2). At 5.30.2 Anaktorion and Sollion are mentioned as communities which the Athenians had not handed back to the Korinthians in spite of a stipulation to that e·ect in the Peace of Nikias. Both seem to have had the same status, i.e. Sollion was probably a dependent polis like Anaktorion. Finally, an unpublished pegasus coin inscribed Χ should probably be assigned to Aitolian Chalkis since no other Korinthian colony known to us has a name beginning with the letter chi. The presumption is that Chalkis was a polis dependent on Korinth like others that struck pegasus coins inscribed with their own city-ethnic (Head, HN2 406–7). 3. Anthene, Kythera, Methana and Thyrea were perioikic Lakedaimonian communities, and in all our sources the perioikic communities are collectively called poleis in the political as well as in the urban sense;18 by being used externally the ethnics derived from the toponyms behave like city-ethnics, not like sub-ethnics;19 and several poleis bestow proxenia on citizens from the perioikic communities.20 The Lakonian perioikic communities seem to have been dependent poleis, and not just municipalities of a unitary Lakedaimonian polis.21 4. Skandaia was the harbour town of Kythera and at 4.54.1 it is described as ? 16 See Hansen (1997c) 173–5 with Funke’s reply at 176. 17 Graham (1964) 118–53, pace Salmon (1984) 277–8. 18 Hdt. 7.234.1–2; Thuc. 5.54.1; Xen.

For the distinction between city-ethnics and sub-ethnics, see Hansen (1996b) 171–3. 20 Gnosstas of Oinous was appointed proxenos by Argos in C5e (SEG 13 239; LSAG 169 no. 22), cf. also the perioikic proxenoi appointed in C4f by Karthaia (IG XII.5 542.20–2). 21 For the view that the Lakedaimonian perioikic communities were dependent poleis, see Hansen (1997a) 34; Shipley (1997) and Hall (2000). For the view that they were just municipalities, see Mertens (2002) countered by Hansen (2004a).

π θαλ σση πλις. The distinction between ? π θαλ σση πλις (4.54.1) and ? Mνω πλις (4.54.2), however, indicates that Thucydides takes Skandeia and Kythera each to be one half of a polis, in which case Skandeia must be viewed as a part of Kythera and not as a polis in its own right.22 It is worth noting the di·erence between Thucydides’ descriptions of Kythera and of Thyrea a few chapters on, where, at 4.57.1, Thucydides distinguishes between the fortress by the sea (τ$ π τ θαλ σση τεχος) and the inland town (? Mνω πλις) about ten stadioi removed. If Thucydides is consistent in his use of the terms, it follows that Skandeia was a proper urban centre which in this sense deserved to be called a polis whereas the part of Thyrea by the sea was just a fortress. Furthermore, Thucydides’ usage must be studied in a broader context and a proper investigation must be made of inland cities which had a port by the sea. In this context two examples will su¶ce: in the famous rescript issued by Alexander in ca. 334 Naulochon, the port of Priene, is called a polis in the urban sense whereas, in the political sense, it is a part of the polis of the Prienians.23 It had its own mint, however,24 and theorodokoi to host theoroi sent from Argos,25 indications that in some respects at least it was a polis in its own right. Similarly Notion, the port of Kolophon, must have been a polis in the political sense, since in the late fourth century it could form a sympoliteia with Kolophon.26 Once more Thucydides uses the term ? Mνω πλις about Kolophon while Notion is called Ντιον τ$ Κολοφων(ων,27 a phrase which may indicate that Notion was a polis community already in the fifth century, cf. Anaktorion and Sollion supra.28 5. Orobiai: At 3.89.2 Orobiai is described as a polis which was partly engulfed by the great seismic sea wave of 426 BC. We know from other sources that a great part of Histiaia was destroyed by the same disaster (Demetrias of Kallatis [FGrHist 85] fr. 6). An Attic inscription of ca. 430–410 shows that Orobiai was situated in the territory of Histiaia (IG I3 418a.6). The ethnic &Οροβιε1ς is attested in a C5 inscription (IG XII.9 923.2–3, AE [1963] 5). We know that Histiaia was organised into tribes and demes (Tod, GHI 141.10, ca. 364). But the stone inscribed with IG XII.9 923 was found in Chalkis, not in the Histiaia-Oreos area, and that points to the ethnic being a city-ethnic rather than a demotic. In Hellenistic inscriptions from the Histiaia-Oreos area, however, &Οροβιε1ς is attested again, and now indisputably 22 Thuc. 4.54.1: ? π θαλ σση πλις, as opposed to Kythera which at 4.54.2 is called ? Mνω πλις. Cf. 54.4, where the reference is to Σκ νδειαν τ$ π τW0 λιµ+νι πλισµα. As far as we know, the island Kythera had only one polis, viz. Kythera (cf. Skylax 46; Strabo 8.5.1; Paus. 3.23.1), and Skandeia is just the port of Kythera, not a political community in its own right. Cf. Gomme (1956) 509. See also Graham Shipley’s analysis (1997) 227–8. 23 I.Priene 1.6 @ 14–15. I follow the interpretation of the inscription o·ered by K. Rosen in Gnomon 54 (1982) 361. 24 Head, HN2 587. 25 SEG 23 189 col. II 10 (ca. 330 BC). 26 Meritt, AJP 56 (1935) 355–7; M. Pi‹erart, BCH 108 (1984) 168–71. 27 Thuc. 3.34.1–2. 28 At CPCInv. no. 336 Shipley takes Skandeia to be the port of Kythera and not a dependency of Kythera. In Hansen (1995) 43–4 I suspended judgement and left open the other possibility, i.e. that Skandeia, like Notion and Naulochon, was a dependent polis.

as a demotic (IG XII.9 1186.3; 1189.27, 37). In Hellenistic inscriptions are attested some thirty other demotics from Histiaia/Oreos29 including ∆ιε1ς (IG XII.9 1187.3), θην(της (IG XII.9 1186.2), and Ποσειδ(της (IG XII.9 1189.20, 28, 39). Now, in the Athenian tribute lists both Dion and Athenai Diades are attested alongside Histiaia as members of the Delian League (e.g. IG I3 263.IV.31: ∆ιε„ς, 32:θε„ναι ∆ι δε[ς], 33: [Γ]ρυνχε„ ς, 34: [h εσσ]τιαιε„ [ς], 450/49). Again, Ποσ(δειον ν Ε%βο(αι is recorded in the assessment decree of 425/4 (IG I3 71.I.91–2) but does not appear in any of the tribute lists. Similarly, both the ∆ις and the θηνται are recorded in the Charter of the Second Athenian Naval League of 378/7 (IG II2 43.88, 90) while the [DΕσ]τιαις are recorded somewhat later (B18). It also appears from an inscription which regulates the relation between Athens and Histiaia after the conquest in 446/ 5 that Histiaia, Dion, Athenai Diades (restored) and Hellopia are treated as four separate circuits of jurisdiction (IG I3 41.100–5). After the suppression of the Euboian revolt in 446 BC Histiaia was made an Athenian colony (Thuc. 1.114.3; 7.57.2), and the Histiaians were forced to emigrate to Makedonia (Theopomp. fr. 387). The Athenian colonists must have been expelled again in 405/4 BC. According to Theopompos, the Athenian colonists were placed in Oreos, formerly a deme of Histiaia. The sources cited above indicate that a number of what were later Histiaian demes were originally independent or, perhaps, semi-independent political units, namely: Athenai Diades, Dion, Posideion, and perhaps some others as well.30 Thus, telling the foundation myth of Athenai Diades, Ephoros describes it as a polis (FGrHist 70 fr. 24). In the course of the fourth and third centuries all these communities became Histiaian demes – or perhaps became Histiaian demes once again – as demonstrated by the demotics attested in the Hellenistic inscriptions. The attestation at IG XII.9 923 of an &Οροβιε1ς outside Histiaian territory indicates that Orobiai may have been one such community and that in the second half of the fifth century it was a (dependent) polis lying in Histiaian territory. To conclude: at Thuc. 3.89.2 polis is used in the urban sense about Orobiai, but may well denote what was then a (dependent) polis in the political sense. If so, it was a polis lying inside the territory of a larger polis, for which see Hansen (1997a) 31. 6. The three Dorian Poleis. At 1.107.2 the three towns in Doris are classified as polismata, and later one of them is called polis in the urban sense, see 139 supra and this designation undoubtedly applies to all three towns but obviously in the urban sense. Some scholars doubt or even refuse to believe that they were poleis in the political sense.31 There are, however, good reasons to believe that the three Dorian towns – referred to by Thucydides as both polismata and poleis – were poleis in the political sense too. (1) At Andron (FGrHist 10) fr. 16a, quoted 182 infra, the region 29 See Jones (1987) 77–8. 30 McGregor (1982) 101–11. 31 See, e.g., Zahrnt (1971) 60: “Der f•ur dies Siedlungen [some urban centres in Bottike and Chalkidike referred to as polismata at 1.65.2.] gebrauchte Ausdruck πολ(σµατα dient bei Thukydides nur zur Bezeichnung von Barbarenst•adte oder befestigten Orten ohne den Rechtscharakter einer πλις.”—Zahrnt’s observation is contradicted by, e.g., 4.103.5 where polisma is used to designate the urban centre of Amphipolis and not just a fortification; see Hornblower (1996) 330.

of Doris and its three towns (Boion, Erineos and Kytinion), are described with the adjective τρ(πολις, which indicates that they were poleis both in the urban and in the political sense, see Reger (1997) 483 n. 25 and Kranioi infra. (2) The region of Doris provided one of the twelve hieromnemones, and in the Delphic inscriptions the hieromnemon from Doris is identified sometimes by the ethnic Metropolites (cf. CID 76.I.19: ∆ωρι+ων Νικα(ου Ματροπολ(τα) but sometimes by a city-ethnic: CID II 43.19: Ε%κλε(δα &Ερινα(ου and CID II 102.I.7: ∆ωρι+ων Τηλεµ χου Κυτινι+ος, which is an indication of polis status in the political sense. 7. Sparta. What has induced historians to believe that Sparta was not a polis in the urban sense of the term is probably Thucydides’ famous description of Sparta at 1.10.2: \µως δ2 οJτε ξυνοικισθε(σης πλεως οJτε ερος κα κατασκευας πολυτελ+σι χρησαµ+νης, κατ3 κGµας δ2 τW0 παλαιW0 τς DΕλλ δος τρπWω ο;κισθε(σης, φα(νοιτ& qν Bποδεεστ+ρα (sc. ? Λακεδαιµον(ων πλις).32 The prevailing interpretation of this passages is well represented by Gomme’s Historical Commentary to Thucydides.33 In his note on 1.10.2 he simply refers back to his note on 5.1, where he writes: “πλεσιν . . . κατ3 κGµας ο;κουµ+ναις: a good instance of the meaning of πλις = political community, even one which had no πλις = permanent centre of administration (which always became a town, generally walled).” Thus, Gomme takes the phrase πλις κατ3 κGµας ο;κουµ+νη to denote a political community in which people live scattered in komai (villages) as opposed to a community in which they live in a polis (in the sense of town). But, pace Gomme, both at 10.2 and 5.1 the word πλις must refer to the urban centre and not to the political community. At 10.2 Thucydides mentions temples and buildings, and in the comparison between Sparta and Athens the focus is on τ3ς !ψεις τ0ν πλεων; but what meets the eye is the polis as an urban centre whereas no one can “look at” a political community, except in a metaphorical sense. Similarly in 5.1, where the full phrase is πλεσιν 7τειχ(στοις κα κατ3 κGµας ο;κουµ+ναις. In his lemma Gomme left out the adjective 7τειχ(στοις which, however, indicates that here, too, πλις must be taken in its physical sense. Aristotle, for example, explicitly denies that a defence circuit was a element of the polis understood as a political community.34 Thus both at 10.2 and 5.1 Thucydides uses the term polis in its urban sense, and by πλις κατ3 κGµας ο;κουµ+νη he understands an (unwalled) town consisting of a cluster of komai instead of being one unified settlement around an acropolis.35 The above list of how Thucydides uses the word polis in the sense of town must of course be supplemented with a discussion of how he refers to a settlement which was not a polis. In such cases he never uses asty or polisma, but sometimes kome.36 32 Thuc. 1.10.2, however, as Sparta is not compactly built as a unified town and has not provided itself with costly temples and other edifices, but is inhabited village-fashion in the old Hellenic style, its power would appear less than it is. 33 Contrast the much more cautious and accurate interpretation in Hornblower (1991) 34–5. 34 Arist. Pol. 1276a26–7. 35 For other sources which show that Sparta was a polis in the urban sense, see Hansen (1997b) 34–5. 36 Cf., e.g., Thuc. 2.80.8: κα δι3 τς ργε(ας ;ντες Λιµνα(αν, κGµην 7τε(χιστον, πρθησαν;

Far more frequently he describes a place by the word chorion, a very vague term that can be used of a polis 37 as well as of other locations.38 Often, however, he seems to avoid any descriptive noun and simply uses the toponym without further qualification.39 To conclude: as is well known, Thucydides did not care much about technical terms.40 A meeting of the assembly, for example, can be called ekklesia or syllogos as it suits the context.41 Like other Classical authors he can use polis synonymously with polisma, even within the same period, about one of the small cities in Doris.42 It is unlikely that Thucydides spent long hours making sure that in every case he had used the term polis in accordance with the rule stated above. In my opinion, his use of polis simply reflects the ordinary use of the word in Classical Greek prose, as is confirmed by a study of all other texts from Hekataios ca. 500 to Theophrastos who wrote two hundred years later.

1. Anabasis In the Anabasis there is no detectable deviation from the general Classical norms for the use of the word polis in application to Greek communities: in the urban sense, it is applied only to urban sites which were the centre of a polis in the sense of political community. However, the term polis is not very frequent in the Anabasis: it occurs in some 108 passages only,2 whereas, by contrast, it occurs some 489 times in the Hellenika (on which see 160–72 infra). Not only Greek communities are called polis in the Anabasis: 21 non-Greek sites are called polis;3 but, polis is applied to non-Greek sites only in the urban or topographical sense. In reference to Greek sites, polis is used exclusively in the senses of “town” or “political community”.4 But as always, it often di¶cult to distinguish between the sense of “town” and that of “political community”, e.g. 1.1.6: πσας εχε φυλακς ν τας πλεσι παργγειλε τος φρουρρχοις κστοις λαµβνειν νδρας Πελοποννησους τι πλεστους κα! βελτστους, "ς πιβουλε#οντος Τισσαφ%ρνους τας πλεσι; here the principal meaning is probably “political community”, but at least in the first instance the sense of “town” is present as well. A fine example of polis in the political sense is found at 3.2.13: &ν 'στι µ(ν τεκµρια ρ)ν τ τρπαια, µ%γιστον δ( µαρτ#ριον * λευθερα τ-ν πλεων ν α/ς 0µες γ%νεσθε κα! τρφητε, or at 5.1.14: τς δ( πλεις κο#σας 'πεισεν δοποιεν. In the urban sense polis occurs at, e.g., 4.8.22: κα! 1λθον π! θλατταν ε2ς Τραπεζο4ντα πλιν 5Ελληνδα ο2κουµ%νην ν τ7- Ε8ξεν7ω Πντ7ω, or at 5.5.11: ν4ν δ( :κο#οµεν 0µ)ς ε;ς τε τ 5Ελλησποντιακα! πλεις, without any names given, 1 2 3 4
Anabasis and Hellenika by Thomas Heine Nielsen, Other Works by Mogens Herman Hansen. Revision and update in collaboration. At 7.4.24 (Perinthos (no. 678)) polis may be an intrusive gloss (cf. n. 5 infra). The present investigation is based on Marchant’s edition of the text. Nielsen (2000) 136. At 7.1.27 (a speech by Xenophon): 0παρχντων δ( πολλ-ν χρηµτων ν τ?@ πλει, the meaning of “acropolis” perhaps cannot be entirely excluded, but the presence of the definite article argues against this meaning (the regular Attic formula for “on the polis” is µ πλει (IG I3 4B.3; 46.21–2; IG II2 17.10); but see e.g. Aeschin. 1.97 and Wyse ad Is. 5.44) and it is probably better to take polis here simply in the sense of “political community”.

or about ethnically defined groups of Greek poleis as at 1.1.6: α> AΙωνικα! πλεις, where Miletos is singled out for specific mention, or, finally, about named or at least identifiable individual communities. An example of a named individual community classified as a polis is, e.g., Kerasous: κα! :φικνο4νται πορευµενοι ε2ς Κερασο4ντα τριταοι πλιν 5Ελληνδα (5.3.2). An example of an identifiable, though not specifically named community classified as a polis is Dardanos: at 5.6.19 Timasion is described by the ethnic ∆αρδανε#ς; at 5.6.22–3 he makes a speech where he states: 0πρξει 0µν * µ< πλις. Thus, Dardanos is described as a polis. Other examples are found at 2.6.2 (Sparta) and 3.1.5 (Athens). Adding up named and identifiable communities a mere eleven Greek communities are classified as poleis and this even means accepting polis at 7.6.24 (Perinthos) where it was possibly not in the original text. Nine of these eleven poleis are described as poleis in the urban sense (see List of poleis), and of these six are called polis in the political sense in other passages of the Anabasis (Athens; Byzantion; Herakleia; Kotyora; Sinope; Trapezous); two (Kerasous and Perinthos) are called polis only in the urban sense but can be shown from other evidence to have been poleis in the political sense as well; three (Dardanos (no. 774), Miletos (no. 854) and Sparta (no. 345)) are called polis in the political sense only. In one case, Issos (no. 1007), it is doubtful whether the community can be considered Hellenic.

The most common meaning of the term in the Hellenika by far is “political community”, which occurs in more than 270 passages, e.g. (i) ο> δA ο8κ 'φασαν δεν στασιζειν πρGς τ περ! Στσιππον, λακωνζοντες κα! ο8κ λχιστον δυνµενοι ν τ?@ πλει (6.4.18).9 Not surprisingly, the meaning of “town” is next, occurring in more than 130 passages, e.g. (i) Θρσυλλος δ( ξαγαγUν Lθηναους κα! τοEς λλους τοEς ν τ?@ πλει ντας cπαντας παρ%ταξε παρ τG Λ#κειον γυµνσιον "ς µαχο#µενος (1.1.33); (ii) προσβαλντες δ( τ?@ πλει α>ρο4σι κατ κρτος (2.1.19); (iii) πε! δ( :φκετο πρGς τ Λακεδαιµνιοι δ%χεσθαι τδ ντας διαρπ-σαντας Pφυγον, ταFτα Pλεγον ο) πολ#ται “τοιαFτα κακA cµ&ς !

THE ATTIC ORATORS by MOGENS HERMAN HANSEN
In this chapter – once again – I focus on the use of polis about urban centres other than Athens, and the purpose of the study is to investigate whether such poleis – in the urban sense – were poleis in the political sense too.1 The overwhelming majority of attestations of poleis in the Attic orators concern Athens, and in almost all cases polis is used in the political sense. Polis is only infrequently used in the urban sense about towns other than Athens, and almost all the relevant attestations come from Demosthenes and Isokrates. Accordingly, I have subdivided the article into three sections, one about Demosthenes, one about Isokrates, and one about the very few occurrences in the other orators.
1. Demosthenes In the Corpus Demosthenicum there are about 1,125 attestations of the word polis. Problems with the text make it impossible to reach an exact figure. The total number is in fact a little higher, viz., 1,143 attestations, but I have subtracted occurrences in spurious documents (especially those inserted in the speech On the Crown) and in quotes of poets (especially those from Sophokles and Solon inserted in the speech On the False Embassy). My investigation covers the entire corpus, since there is reason to believe that the Pseudo-Demosthenic speeches are, in any case, fourthcentury documents.2 Even the letters are, presumably, genuine, apart from no. 5, in which polis does not occur.3 I include Philip’s letter ( = Dem 12), which is obviously not by Demosthenes but belongs in this context. It goes without saying that the great majority of occurrences, altogether some 933, concern the Athenian polis. In 115 passages the reference is to an unnamed polis or the polis in general, and 81 passages only concern named poleis other than Athens.4 In a few of these cases polis is used in the plural and applied to the 1

Lists of attestations of polis in the Attic orators were compiled in 1992–3 by M.H. Hansen (Aischines, Demosthenes) and D. Whitehead (Andokides, Antiphon, Deinarchos, Hyperides, Isokrates, Lykourgos and Lysias). McCabe (1981). On the authenticity of Dem. 25 Against Aristogeiton I, see Hansen (1976) 144– 52, countered by Sealey (1993) 237–9, but Sealey’s remaining arguments against authenticity have been countered by Rubinstein (2000) 30–2. Goldstein (1968), confirmed by McCabe’s stylistic analysis (1981). 933+115+81 add up to 1129, as against 1,125 occurrences of polis, because, in a few passages

poleis within a named region, e.g. Phokis.5 But mostly it is an individual, named community which is classified as a polis. Apart from Athens, 33 other named communities are called polis, see infra. Again, in Demosthenes the word polis is used in the political sense much more frequently than in the urban or territorial senses. There are just eighteen attestations of the territorial sense as either the principal meaning or a clearly detectable connotation.6 In some 79 passages polis means town, or town is a connotation that goes with the political sense of the word.7 In all other passages polis is used either exclusively in its political sense, or the political sense seems to prevail over the other two. These figures must, of course, be taken with a pinch of salt. In many cases polis conveys, possibly, all three meanings at the same time, and an exact classification is simply impossible. Apart from Athens, 33 named communities are called polis, six in the political sense only,8 27 in the urban sense, and of these six are described as poleis in the political sense in another passage of the corpus,9 whereas twenty-one are attested as poleis in the urban sense only. The evidence for the polis status of the 27 communities is as follows: Aigina (no. 358). 23.211: . . . Λµπιν, ς µγιστα ναυκλρια κκτηται τν Ελλνων, κα κατεσκεακεν τν πλιν ατος κα τ µπριον . . . Like Sostratos in C5 (Hdt. 4.152.3), Lampis seems to have been a very rich Aiginetan shipowner who spent private money on building operations in his polis (in the urban sense) and its emporion. Called polis in the political sense at Hdt. 2.178.3 and Xen. Hell. 2.2.9. Amphipolis (no. 553). 12.22ter: (1) πντες ο!κο"µεν τ#ς πλεις.

polis denotes both Athens and some other polis, see, e.g., Dem. 60.30: κοινο" δ+ -ντος (µφοτραις τας πλεσιν (Athens and Thebes) το" παρντος κινδνου. Dioikismos of 22 Phokian poleis: 19.123, cf. 18.36, 42; 19.61, 62, 141. Thirty-two Thracian poleis destroyed by Philip: 9.26; cf. 23.141. Illyrian poleis protected by building walls 4.48. Poleis in the Gulf of Pagasai: 12.5. Poleis in Euboia: 18.100. 3.31; 8.40; 9.67, 70; 10.63bis; 15.27; 18.132; 19.39, 342; 22.13; 23.52bis; 25.87, 89, 95; 40.32bis. A typical instance is the punishment of exile, often described as banishment from the polis, i.e. from the territory of the polis, see e.g. 25.95: ξορ'σαι, 1ψαι κ τ*ς πλεως. For a passage in which the sense of territory seems to be combined with the sense of town, see 18.132: 3ντιφντα, ς παγγειλµενος Φιλ'ππ5ω τ# νε6ρι+ µπρσειν ε!ς τν πλιν 7λθεν. For the sense of territory combined with the sense of political community, see 10.63: οκ 8στι τν 8ξω τ*ς πλεως χθρν κρατ*σαι, πρν 9ν το:ς ν ατ;* τ;* πλει κολσητ+ χθρος. For a possible instance of all three meanings combined, see 9.70: κα γρ Jνηµ ρους ποιµανεις
