Notes on the current edition

Panathenaicus

1. The Perioeci, like the Helots, were subject to military service more and more as the pure Spartan population declined; but Isocrates’ complaint that they were made to take the brunt of danger is probably an exaggeration. However, the power of the Spartan magistrates, the Ephors, to condemn them to death without trial is well attested. See Gilbert, Greek Constitutional Antiquities p. 58.
