JUDICIAL AND FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATION iN LATE HELLENISTIC ATHENS A New Decree of the Athenian Council

This article offers the editio princeps of two Hellenistic decrees, one of them very fragmentary, recorded on a partially preserved marble stele found in Plaka in 2003. The second, and better-preserved, decree was passed by the Athenian Council in 103/2 b.c. It provides not only the first attestation of epsilon mu mu eta nu omicron iota delta iota kappa alpha iota ("monthly suits") in a late Hellenistic context, but also important new information on contemporary Athenian prosopography, ideology, and financial and judicial institutions.
