The chapters on Argos, -Corinth, and Rome are based on papers read to the Oxford Philological -Society in 1913 and to the Bristol branch of the Classical Association -in 1914. - -As regards the presentation of my material here, it has been my -endeavour to make the argument intelligible to readers who are not -classical scholars and archaeologists. The classics have ceased to be a -water-tight compartment in the general scheme of study and research, and -my subject forms a chapter in general economic history which might -interest students of that subject who are not classical scholars. On the -other hand classical studies have become so specialised and the -literature in each department has multiplied so enormously that unless -monographs can be made more or less complete in themselves and capable -of being read without referring to a large number of large and -inaccessible books, it will become impossible for classical scholars to -follow the work that is being done even in their own subject beyond the -limits of their own particular branch. For these reasons ancient -authorities have been mainly given in literal English translations, and -when, as happens in almost every chapter, information has to be sought -from vases, coins, or inscriptions, I have tried to elucidate my point -by means of explanatory descriptions and illustrations. - -The work has involved me in numerous obligations which I gladly take -this opportunity of acknowledging. In 1907 I received grants from the -Worts travelling bachelors’ fund of Cambridge University and from -Gonville and Caius College to visit Greece for the purpose of collecting -archaeological evidence upon the history of the early tyranny. This -purpose was partially diverted because shortly after reaching Greece I -became associated with the late Dr R. M. Burrows in the excavation of -the Greek cemetery at Rhitsona in Boeotia and in the study and -publication of the pottery found there. This pottery dates mainly from -the age of the tyrants, and the results of my work at it appear in -several of the succeeding chapters. To Dr Burrows I owe also the -encouragement that led me to start working on the early tyranny: my main -idea on the subject first occurred to me when I was lecturing on Greek -history as his assistant at University College, Cardiff. - -I have also received much assistance at various times and in various -ways from Professor G. A. T. Davies, another former colleague of mine at -Cardiff, and from several of my Reading colleagues, particularly -Professor W. G. de Burgh, Mr D. Atkinson, and my wife. Many other debts -are recorded in the body of the book: but considering how many and -various they have been, I can scarcely hope that none has been passed -over without acknowledgement. - -But of all my obligations the earliest and chiefest is to Sir William -Ridgeway. It is to the unique quality of his teaching at Cambridge that -I owe the stimulus that suggested to me the explanation here offered of -the origin of tyranny. - - P. N.

But practically all that is meant by the -Greek spirit and the Greek genius had its birth in the earlier period. -Literature and art, philosophy and science are at this present day -largely following the lines that were then laid down for them, and this -is equally the case with commerce. [Sidenote: (_a_) of the first known -metal coins,] It was at the opening of this epoch that the Greeks or -their half hellenized neighbours the Lydians brought about perhaps the -most epoch-making revolution in the whole history of commerce by the -invention of a metal coinage like those that are still in circulation -throughout the civilized world. - -It was no accident that the invention was made precisely at this time. -Industry and commerce were simultaneously making enormous strides. About -the beginning of the seventh century the new Lydian Dynasty of the -Mermnadae made Sardis one of the most important trading centres that -have arisen in the world’s history. The Lydian merchants became -middlemen between Greece and the Far East. Egypt recovered its -prosperity and began rapidly to develop commercial and other relations -with its neighbours, including the Greeks. Greek traders were pushing -their goods by sea in all directions from Spain to the Crimea. Concrete -evidence of this activity is still to be seen in the Corinthian and -Milesian pottery of the period that has been so abundantly unearthed as -far afield as Northern Italy and Southern Russia. It was a time of -extraordinary intellectual alertness. Thales and the numerous other -philosophers of the Ionian School were in close touch with the merchants -and manufacturers of their age. They were in fact men of science rather -than philosophers in the narrow modern sense of the latter word, and -most of them were ready to apply their science to practical and -commercial ends, as for example Thales, who is said to have made a -fortune by buying up all the oil presses in advance when his -agricultural observations had led him to expect a particularly plentiful -harvest[1]. A corner in oil sounds very modern, and in fact the whole of -the evidence shows that in many ways this ancient epoch curiously -anticipated the present age. - -[Sidenote: and (_b_) of the first rulers to be called tyrants.] - -Politically these two centuries are generally known as the age of -tyrants. The view that the prevalence of tyranny was in some way -connected with the invention of coinage has been occasionally -expressed[2]. Radet has even gone so far as to suggest that the first -tyrant was also the first coiner[3]. He does not however go further than -to suggest that the tyrant started a mint and coinage when already on -the throne. - -[Sidenote: The new form of government was, I believe, based on the new - form of capital.] - -The evidence appears to me to point to conclusions of a more -wide-reaching character. Briefly stated they are these: that the seventh -and sixth century Greek tyrants were the first men in their various -cities to realize the political possibilities of the new conditions -created by the introduction of the new coinage, and that to a large -extent they owed their position as tyrants to a financial or commercial -supremacy which they had already established before they attained to -supreme political power in their several states. - -In other words their position as I understand it has considerable -resemblances to that built up in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries -A.D. by the rich bankers and merchants who made themselves despots in so -many of the city states of Italy. The most famous of these are the -Medici, the family who gave a new power to the currency by their -development of the banking business, and mainly as a result of this -became tyrants of Florence. Santo Bentivoglio of Bologna passed from a -wool factory to the throne. Another despot of Bologna was the rich -usurer Roméo Pepoli. At Pisa the supreme power was grasped by the -Gambacorti with an old merchant named Pietro at their head. At Lodi it -was seized by the millionaire Giovanni Vignate. The above instances are -taken from Symonds’ sixth class of despots of whom he says that “in most -cases great wealth was the original source of despotic ascendancy[4].” - -[Sidenote: This view deserves examination in the light of the modern - financial revolution,] - -Still closer analogies lie at our very door. It is a commonplace that we -are in the midst of an industrial revolution. This modern movement was -already beginning a century ago, when Byron pleaded the cause of the -frameworkers before the House of Lords. There are of course obvious -differences between the two revolutions. That of the seventh and sixth -centuries B.C. was mainly financial, that of the present time is mainly -industrial. But the difference is not so great as it at first sight -appears[5]. The invention of a metal coinage was accompanied by great -industrial changes[6], and we can no more divide sharply the financial -and industrial activities of the great houses of archaic Greece than we -can separate the banking and the mercantile enterprises of the great -families of the cities of Italy at the time of the renaissance, such as -the wealthy Panciatighi of Florence, who lent money to the emperor -Sigismund and exported cloths to London, Avignon and North Africa[7]. On -the other hand the modern industrial movement, with its development of -machinery and its organization of masters and men into trusts and trade -unions, has been accompanied by a revolution in the nature of the -currency. The modern financial revolution began at the same time as the -industrial. [Sidenote: which has replaced metal coins by paper,] Its -earliest phases are described and discussed in William Cobbett’s _Paper -against Gold_[8]. Since Cobbett’s days the paper currency which so -distressed him has developed enormously. Even before 1914 we were told -that “Gold already acts in England only as change for notes[9].” - -It is not necessary here to examine in detail the various forms taken by -this new paper currency. It is enough to point out that it enables -property to be transferred and manipulated far more rapidly and on far -larger a scale than was previously possible[10]. Only one other point in -the history of the new currency needs to be here mentioned. It cannot be -better expressed than in the words used by the Chancellor of the -Exchequer in the House of Commons on November 28th, 1914: - - I have been much struck since I have been dealing with these - transactions (bills of exchange) with how little even traders who - form a part of this great machinery know about the mechanism of - which they form an essential part.... I do not think that the - general public—and I am putting myself among them—ever realized the - extent to which the business not merely of this country, but of the - whole world, depended upon this very delicate and complicated paper - machinery. - -Apparently it needed a European war to bring home to the modern world of -commerce the nature of its currency. This fact should warn us against -expecting to find in early Greece any very clear recognition of the -revolution in the currency that then took place. When gold and silver -coins were first circulated they had a corresponding effect to the -modern issues of paper. They enabled property to be transferred with -greater ease and rapidity. We may be sure however that the character and -possibilities of the new currency did not at once receive universal -recognition[11]. The merchants in the bazaars of Lydia and Ionia who -best understood how to make use of it must have profited enormously. - -[Sidenote: and led many people to fear a new tyranny of wealth.] - -The experts in the new finance of the last two generations have been -exercising a profound influence upon politics and government. There are -many people, particularly in America, who believe that there is a -possibility of this influence becoming supreme. It is worth while -quoting a few of these opinions: - - This era is but a passing phase in the evolution of industrial - Caesars, and these Caesars will be of a new type—corporate - Caesars[12]. - - The flames of a new economic evolution run around us, and we turn to - find that competition has killed competition, that corporations are - grown greater than the state and have bred individuals greater than - themselves, and that the naked issue of our time is with property - becoming master instead of servant[13]. - - For some months past the sugar trust has been the Government of the - United States[14]. - -In 1884 there seems even to have been an idea of running a Standard Oil -senator for the United States presidency. “Henry B. Payne is looming up -grandly in the character of a possible and not altogether improbable -successor to Mr Tilden as the Democratic candidate for the -presidency[15].” - -The danger of supreme power in America passing into the hands of a few -capitalists has even been publicly acknowledged by a President of the -United States during his period of office. “Mr Wilson also discussed the -division between capital and labour. He dwelt for the greater part of -the speech on the effort of ‘small bodies of privileged men to resume -control of the Government,’ and added: ‘We must again convince these -gentlemen that the government of this country belongs to us, not to -them[16].’” - -Similar views are expressed by French, German and Italian writers. -According to the most brilliant of modern Frenchmen the government of -France has in some recent periods been in the hands of three or four -groups of financiers[17]. Salvioli in his _Capitalism in the Ancient -World_ speaks of the “kings of finance who exercise in our states a -secret but pervading sway[18].” Even the warlike von Bernhardi fears an -impending “tyranny of capital[19].” - -These quotations might be multiplied[20], but enough have been given to -show that the opinion which they express is widely held. There is no -need to discuss the honesty of particular expressions of it. If any of -them could be shown to have been insincere, it would be only additional -evidence of the plausibility of the opinion. Nor is this the place to -discuss from a more general point of view the extent to which that -opinion has been or seems likely to be verified. To have indicated how -widely prevalent is the fear of an impending “new tyranny of wealth[21]” -or “tyranny of capital[22]” is by itself enough to show that the -relation between the tyranny and the new form of wealth that arose in -the seventh and sixth centuries before our era is a subject that -deserves investigation, and to show also that the particular view as to -those relations that is maintained in these pages has _a priori_ -plausibility[23]. - -[Sidenote: The evidence:] - -It should however be said at once that my view appears to have been held -by no one who has published opinions on the subject from the fourth -century B.C. onwards. This however is not fatal. Later in this chapter -reasons will be suggested for holding that the true character of the -early tyranny was lost sight of in the days of Plato and Aristotle. Why -truer views on this particular subject should be recovered precisely at -the present period may be sufficiently explained by the modern financial -revolution, which makes it possible to approach the question from a -point which has scarcely been accessible during the last two thousand -years. With this warning we may proceed to state the nature of the -evidence in favour of this view that the earliest tyrannies were founded -and based on wealth. - -(1) The greater part of it is drawn from anecdotes and incidental -statements of fact about particular seventh or sixth century tyrants -preserved in Herodotus and later Greek and Latin writers. The various -tyrants are dealt with individually in the remaining chapters of the -book. - -(2) Glimpses into the economic and political life of the seventh and -sixth centuries are occasionally to be got from the scanty remains of -the poets of the period, supplemented by cautious references to later -writers. It will be convenient to examine at once this more general -evidence. - -[Sidenote: (_a_) statements from the extant writings of the sixth - century (Solon and Theognis),] - -The only two writers of the age of the tyrants of whom more than the -merest scraps have come down to us are Solon[24] and Theognis[25]. Both -deal professedly with the social and political problems of their day. -But both address audiences who are familiar with those problems. Even if -their whole works had been preserved instead of a few hundred lines in -either case, we should not expect to have the fundamental problems -explicitly stated. It would be possible to read a large selection of -articles and speeches by quite the best journalists and politicians on -many recent political measures and at the end of it to be left in -uncertainty as to the content and purport of the measure in question. We -must expect the same difficulty in reading Solon and Theognis. And it -must be confessed that we find it. But there is nothing in the extant -fragments of either writer which discredits the theory. More than that -there are passages in both of them that become of the utmost -significance if the early tyrants owed their power to their previous -wealth but are rather pointless on any other hypothesis. - -Solon’s position in relation to the tyranny is explained in the chapter -dealing with Athens. But a few lines may be quoted here: - - But of themselves in their folly the men of the city are willing - Our great city to wreck, being won over by wealth. - False are the hearts of the people’s leaders[26]. - -By the wreck of the city the poet means the establishment of a tyranny, -as is indicated by another couplet: - - Great men ruin a city: for lack of understanding - Under a despot’s[27] yoke lieth the people enslaved[28]. - -These last two lines were presumably written after Peisistratus had made -himself tyrant of Athens. Solon’s fears had been realized. The citizens -had been “won over by wealth” to “wreck their great city.” Is not the -best sense made out of these lines by assuming that what Solon feared -and what actually happened was that the popular leader had made use of -his wealth to establish himself as tyrant? Neither the “people’s -leaders” of the first quotation nor the “great men” of the second are -specifically stated to have been extremely rich, but to quote again the -words of Solon, both may be plausibly identified with the foremost of - - Those who had power and made men to marvel because of their riches[29]. - -The political aim of Theognis was to prevent a recurrence of tyranny in -Megara[30]. What does the poet bid his townsmen beware of? Not of -eloquence, not of violence, not of rashly appointing a lawgiver or -αἰσυμνήτης. All his warnings are directed against wealth. The whole town -of Megara had become commercial[31]. Birth had lost its prestige, and -wealth acquired unprecedented power. He complains how - - Tradesmen reign supreme: the bad lord it over their betters[32]. - - This is the lesson that each and all must thoroughly master: - How that in all the world wealth has the might and the power[33]. - - Many a bad man is rich, and many a good man needy[34]. - - Not without cause, O wealth, do men honour thee above all things[35]. - - Most men reckon the only virtue the making of money[36]. - - Everyone honours those that are rich, and despises the needy[37]. - -When he explicitly alludes to the dangers of the establishment of a -tyranny, his references to wealth are no less prominent: - - Neither exalt thou in hope, _by yielding to gain_, any tyrant[38]. - - Cyrnus, this city is pregnant. I fear lest a man it may bear us - Swollen with insolent pride[39], leader in stern civil strife[40]. - -The couplet last quoted almost certainly refers to a possible tyrant. -Insolent pride (ὕβρις) is one of the tyrant’s stock characteristics[41]. -There is no reference to wealth in this particular context. But there -can be little doubt that this same character is also referred to earlier -in the poem. Who, the poet asks, can preserve his reverence for the -Gods: - - When that a man unjust and presumptuous, one that regardeth - Neither the wrath of a man, no, nor the wrath of a God, - _Glutted with wealth_ waxes proud and insolent[42]? - -In this last passage the pride and insolence are directly attributed to -enormous wealth. - -Or again: - - Be thou sure that not long will that city remain unshaken, - Even though now it may lie wrapped in the deepest repose, - Soon as soever to those that are bad these things become pleasing— - Gains that, whenever they come, bring with them ill for the state. - For from these arise factions, murders of men by their kindred, - Despots withal[43]. - -What are the gains that lead up to tyranny? Is it not most probable that -they are some form of payment received by the commons (“those that are -bad”) from the would-be tyrant[44]? - -Solon and Theognis wrote with the examples of Gyges, Pheidon, -Orthagoras, Cypselus, Theagenes and the rest of the seventh century -tyrants before them[45]. If they constantly feared that some wealthy -tradesman[46] would make himself tyrant, it must surely have been -because the tyrants had sprung from or been allied with this new class -of wealthy traders and financiers. - -[Sidenote: (_b_) the fifth century writers (Thucydides, Herodotus, - Pindar),] - -The view here set forth as to the basis of the tyrant’s power finds -nothing to contradict it in the fifth century references to the early -tyranny. On the contrary such few references as are explicitly made to -the origin of the tyranny by writers of the fifth century bear it out. -“Is it not folly,” says Oedipus to Kreon in the _Oedipus Tyrannus_ of -Sophocles, “this attempt of yours, without a host of followers and -friends to seek a tyranny, a thing that’s gained only with hosts of -followers and money[47]?” “When Greece,” says Thucydides, in his -introductory sketch of early Greek history, “had grown more powerful, -and was still more than before engaged in the acquisition of wealth, -tyrannies were established in the cities[48].” Herodotus gives no -account of the rise of tyranny, but a large proportion of the evidence -as to the careers of individual tyrants is derived from his work. -Perhaps the fifth century writer who might be expected to throw most -light on the question is Pindar, who visited the courts of the Sicilian -tyrants and wrote odes in their honour. His poems contain many -references to the supreme importance of wealth: - - Wealth adorned with virtues - Brings opportunity for this and that[49]. - - Ever in the quest of noble achievements - Toil and outlay strive after the issue[50]. - -So elsewhere[51] in a similar spirit he describes Hiero’s great victory -over the Etruscans as “the crown of his lordly wealth.” The Syracusan -monarchs of the early fifth century seem to have had fewer affinities -with the commercial tyrants of the two preceding centuries than with the -military despots of a later age. It is therefore all the more -significant that wealth is so frequently regarded by Pindar, who more -than any other writer represents the transition from the sixth century -to the fifth, rather as a means to power than as one of its rewards. -Later documents, as has been said already, give a different account of -the early tyrants’ antecedents. But here and there statements are to be -found in them that, though perhaps reconcilable with other views, only -become fully significant on the commercial theory. - -Isocrates for instance speaks of the “huge wage bills and expenditures -of money by which all modern dynasts maintain their power[52].” He wrote -these words between 342 and 339 B.C.[53], but as his modern times are -contrasted with those of Agamemnon and he himself was nearly thirty -years old at the close of the fifth century, his modern dynasts may well -include sixth century tyrants like Peisistratus and Polycrates, the more -so as “dynasts” arose so seldom in fifth century Greece. - -[Sidenote: (_c_) some statements of fourth century writers,] - -Aristotle preserves the tradition that the early tyrants were good -business men. He speaks of “rendering account of their receipts and -expenditure, as has been done already by certain of the tyrants. For by -this kind of administration he would give the impression of being a -manager (οἰκονόμος) and not a tyrant[54].” - -That the early tyrants had previously been men of wealth is also perhaps -to be inferred from certain remarks of Aristotle about the “lawgivers” -of the same period. The general character of these “lawgivers” is a -matter of some dispute; but they appear to have differed from the -tyrants in at least two points. They governed by general consent and -they marked an earlier stage in the economic evolution of the city -state[55]. They are perhaps to be compared with the “arbitrators” -between employers and employed who in recent times have sometimes -enjoyed considerable influence[56]. When Aristotle[57] emphasizes the -fact that the best “lawgivers” were all drawn from the citizens of -moderate means (ἐκ τῶν μέσων πολιτῶν) he is making a fairly pointless -remark unless the same could not be said of the tyrants of the period. -That Aristotle did actually recognize the connexion between tyranny and -extremes of wealth and poverty is shown by another passage of the -_Politics_[58]: - - For this reason it is very fortunate when those engaged in politics - have moderate but sufficient means, for where some have very great - possessions and others none, the result is either extreme democracy - or unmitigated oligarchy or tyranny, which is caused by both - extremes. For unbridled democracy and oligarchy lead to tyranny, the - intermediate and more closely allied forms of government do so far - less. - -The philosopher himself may have pictured some of the early tyrants as -having risen from being penniless demagogues. The difficulties in the -way of accepting the view that a poor man ever became a tyrant before -the democratic development of the fifth century will be set forth later -in this chapter. If there is any basis of fact for Aristotle’s -statement, the early tyrants must have come from among the wealthiest of -the citizens. - -[Sidenote: (_d_) evidence as to industrial conditions during and after - the age of the tyrants,] - -There is nothing surprising in this conclusion. In the age that saw -merchants like Solon made practical dictators in their native -cities[59], and philosophers like Thales anticipating the Rockefellers -by making a corner in oil[60], there must have been individuals with -something of the abilities of these great men, but little of their -disinterestedness, who would be quick to grasp the possibility of -reaching through the corner to the crown. - -At a later date cornering became less easy. In fifth century Athens -there were statutes and magistrates (σιτοφύλακες) to prevent corners in -corn, and we still have a speech of Lysias directed against some -speculators who had bought beyond the legal limit. The context of a -passage in this speech suggests that the general controllers of the -market (ἀγορανόμοι) were expected to be on their guard against corners -in other articles[61]. - -The detailed evidence in favour of this view is given in the chapters -that follow. It will be found however that these men who made themselves -tyrants through their riches were not all of them mere speculators. Some -at least had acquired their wealth from trade or industry. This means -that they were large employers of labour. There are reasons for thinking -that from this point of view they would be politically far more -influential than their successors in business in the days of the -Athenian democracy. - -The big merchants and manufacturers of the fifth and fourth centuries -relied largely, and more and more as time went on, on servile labour. -The thousand miners whose services Nikias commanded were all slaves. Six -hundred slave miners were owned by his contemporary Hipponikos and three -hundred by Philemonides[62]. The hundred and twenty hands in the shield -factory of the orator Lysias were all slaves[63]. So too were the -fifty-two in the knife and bedstead factories inherited by -Demosthenes[64], and the nine or ten in the boot-making establishment of -Timarchus[65], as also those in the flute-making establishment from -which the father of Isocrates made his living[66], and the sail-makers -and drug-pounders who appear in Demosthenes _contra Olympiodorum_[67]. -These instances might be multiplied[68]. Slaves were of course only a -form of wealth[69]. As human beings they were entirely without influence -on politics. It would have been another matter if Nikias had had a big -constituency of miner citizens at his entire disposal. That I believe -was one of the great differences between Nikias and Peisistratus and -generally speaking between the captains of industry in the fifth and -fourth centuries and their predecessors in the seventh and sixth. The -evidence is not decisive, but as far as it goes it all points in this -direction. - -At Athens in the generation that preceded the tyranny it is reported of -Solon that “he encouraged the citizens to take up manual trades[70],” a -policy perhaps to be connected with his release from debt and -semi-slavery of the “pelatai” and the “hektemoroi[71],” since fresh -employment had possibly to be found for many of these liberated serfs. -It is further reported of Solon that he offered the citizenship to any -who “transplanted themselves to Athens with their whole family for the -sake of exercising some manual trade[72].” Aeschines quotes Solon, laws -attributed to whom were still in force when the orator flourished, to -the effect that “he does not drive a man from the platform” (_i.e._ he -allows him to speak in the assembly of citizens) “even if he is -practising some handicraft, but welcomes that class most of all[73].” -Solon himself, describing the various paths by which men pursue riches, -declares that - - Another learns the works of Athena and Hephaestus of the many - crafts, and with his hands gathers a livelihood[74]. - -The tyrants themselves are repeatedly found making it part of their -policy to keep their subjects employed on big industrial concerns. In -more than one case we shall see their power collapsing just when this -policy becomes financially impossible[75]. This part of the tyrants’ -policy is noticed by Aristotle, who quotes the dedications (buildings -and works of art) of the Cypselids at Corinth, the building of the -temple of Olympian Zeus at Athens by the Peisistratids, and the works of -Polycrates round Samos[76]. To these names we may add Theagenes of -Megara, Phalaris of Agrigentum, Aristodemus of Cumae, and the Tarquins -of Rome, all of whom are associated with works of this kind[77]. -Aristotle says that the object of these works was to keep the people -busy and poor. This explanation is more than doubtful, as has been -already recognized[78]. It is not employment that leads to poverty. More -probably the tyrants pursued this industrial policy because, to quote an -expression used in another context by Plutarch, “stimulating every craft -and busying every hand it made practically the whole city wage earners -(ἔμμισθον),” employed, as in the case Plutarch is describing, by the -government of the state. In other words may not the tyrants have been -building up an industrial state of employee subjects who in their turn -involved an army of “customer subjects[79]”? The words just quoted come -from the life of Pericles[80] and refer to the way that he employed the -poorer citizens (τὸν θητικὸν ὄχλον) in the rebuilding and adornment of -Athens. Among the people so employed he mentions carpenters, sculptors, -coppersmiths, stone masons, dyers, moulders of gold and ivory, painters, -embroiderers, engravers, merchants, sailors, wheelwrights, waggoners, -drivers, rope-makers, flax workers, leather cutters, road-makers, -miners. We still possess fragments of the accounts of payments made to -these workmen or their successors some years after Pericles’ death[81]. -The Alcmaeonids, the family to which Pericles belonged, had been -opponents of the house of Peisistratus for ages, and had consistently -fought it with its own weapons. Pericles himself was commonly called the -new Peisistratus[82]. His public works were a continuation of those of -Peisistratus[83]. The whole situation as well as our scanty information -about industrial conditions in the age of the tyrants alike suggest that -in this use of public works to convert the industrial classes into an -army of his own employees, which is what they very nearly were[84], -Pericles was in a very particular sense a new Peisistratus. - -To judge too from the purely industrial evidence Pericles seems to have -been continuing the traditions of an earlier age. It is true that free -labour was largely employed on the restoration of the great sanctuary at -Eleusis some eighty years after the operations just referred to. An -inscription relating to the wages paid during this later undertaking -shows that the employees included 36 citizens, 39 resident aliens, 12 -strangers, 2 slaves, besides 57 persons of uncertain status[85]. But -this evidence only tends to show that building was always a free man’s -trade[86]. We must beware of arguing from one trade to another or from -one particular trade to trade in general. There were doubtless many -subtle shades of status depending on the nature of either the work or -the profits[87]. As servile industry develops, it drives free labour -from work thought to be particularly damaging to body or mind such as -employment underground in mines. Speaking generally, however, there are -signs that in Athens at least between the days of the tyranny and those -of the Periclean democracy the conditions of free labour had been -radically changed. This is most obvious as regards the status of the -citizen artizan[88]. Solon refers to him without a trace of contempt and -is careful to maintain his political dignity. In so doing he appears to -have been conservative and simply following the tradition of the Homeric -age, when a prince was proud to make his own bedstead or build his own -house and a princess took pleasure in acting as palace laundress[89]. In -Attica at any rate manual labour appears to have enjoyed an equally -honourable reputation from the heroic age onwards till the end of the -age of the tyrants[90]. In the good old days, so Plato declares in the -_Critias_[91], “the other classes of citizens were engaged in -handicrafts (δημιουργίαι) and agriculture.” The earliest division of the -free population, ascribed to the half historical Theseus, comprised -three classes—nobles, farmers, and artizans (δημιουργοί)[92]. When -Solon, who was himself a merchant[93], reorganized the population he -divided it (or perhaps simply preserved an existent division) into four -classes, of which the lowest were θῆτες or day labourers[94]. The names -of the others (pentekosiomedimnoi, hippeis, zeugitai) show that this -class must have included all the artizans, the men who, in the -lawgiver’s own words, “learn the works of Athena and Hephaestus of the -many crafts.” This description of the ancient Athenian craftsmen as sons -of Pallas and Hephaestus recurs in Plato[95]. A class that is described -in this way plainly rests under no stigma. As Wallon puts it, “le -travail, loin d’être un titre d’exclusion, était un moyen d’arriver au -pouvoir[96].” Some five years after Solon’s legislation the old -classification of the free population as nobles, farmers and artizans -(δημιουργοί) reappears and the artizans secure two out of ten seats on -the board of chief magistrates[97]. - -But in the fifth century this has changed. Contrast the tone of Solon -with that of Xenophon[98], who states that some citizens “actually” live -by handicrafts, and that mechanical occupations are rightly held in -contempt by civilized communities. When Socrates has demonstrated to -Alcibiades that the Athenian ecclesia is made up of working men -(cobblers, criers, tent-makers and the like), he proceeds to this -inference: “if you have a contempt for them individually, then you must -have a contempt for them as a body[99].” This contempt for manual work -appears in Aristophanes, as for instance in his constant contemptuous -references to Euripides’ mother, who had been a greengrocer[100]. It is -recognized and discussed by Herodotus, who regards it as of -comparatively recent growth: as he puts it, “most of the Greeks have -learned to despise artizans[101].” His view is supported by Isocrates, -who when describing the state of things that prevailed in the Athens of -Solon and Cleisthenes, declares that “the propertied classes, so far -from despising those who were not so well off, ... relieved their -necessities, giving some of them farms at moderate rents, sending out -others to travel as merchants, supplying others with capital for their -various employments (ἐργασίας)[102].” The passage just quoted is no -doubt tendencious. But, as maintained by Mauri[103], it does indicate -that labour was not despised in archaic Athens. More than that it -suggests that in the days of Solon and Cleisthenes there was a good deal -of free labour under the patronage, if not in the actual employment, of -rich individuals. The transformation that began in the fifth century -seems to have occurred gradually. It had not been completed when -Herodotus wrote. Among the Athenian citizens who just at that time were -being employed by Pericles on the Athenian acropolis we have seen from -Plutarch that there were included carpenters, smiths, and leather -workers. In the next generation we find Xenophon declaring that most of -those who understand these crafts are servile. The words are put into -the mouth of Socrates, who was the younger contemporary of Herodotus by -some fifteen years[104]. Socrates and Xenophon however sometimes voice -the earlier view. In the _Apology_ for instance artizans are compared -favourably with politicians, poets, and the like[105]. Similarly in the -_de Vectigalibus_ of Xenophon, in which the writer expresses some of his -own personal views, artizans are placed with no suggestion of -inferiority in the company of sophists, philosophers, poets, and -sight-seers[106]. In Plato, except for the passage just quoted from the -_Apology_, manual labour is consistently condemned as unworthy of a free -man in a free city[107]. He would have no member of a state or even the -slave of a citizen among those engaged in manual trades[108]. He admits -that there is nothing inherently ignoble in trade, but explains at -length how all trading has in fact become so[109]. Trade has come to -imply money-making and to mean that the city where it flourishes is -“infected with money of silver and gold, than which, speaking generally, -no greater evil could arise for a city that aimed at producing just and -noble characters[110].” When Plato is building up his ideal state wage -earning is left to those citizens who are mentally deficient[111]. Plato -is above all things an independent thinker with no great respect for the -masses and less still for popular opinion. But in this particular point -his views do not seem to be unusual. He is echoed again and again by -Aristotle: “Citizens ought not to live the life of an artizan or -tradesman[112].” “Farmers and artizans and all the working-class element -must exist in cities: but the real constituents of the city are the -military class and the parliamentarians[113].” “The best city will not -make the artizan a citizen[114].” “The city where the artizans are -numerous and men at arms are few cannot attain to greatness[115].” The -speech of Demosthenes against Euboulides makes it plain that in the -fourth century a doubtful claim to Athenian citizenship might be damaged -by pointing out that the claimant was a small tradesman. “It is your -duty,” the orator makes his client say to the jury, “to uphold the laws -and not to regard as outlanders people who work for their living (τοὺς -ἐργαζομένους)[116].” Aristotle and Euboulides would have agreed with -Pollux[117], our earliest lexicographer (second century A.D.), that -thetes is a name for free men who out of poverty do slave’s work for -money (ἐπ’ ἀργυρίῳ δουλευόντων). - -The Greeks despised the artizan largely because of his lack of leisure -and impaired physique which to their minds necessarily implied a lack of -culture and a weakened intelligence[118]. This being the ground of their -contempt, the feeling must plainly have grown up when the claims of -culture and of industry had become exacting. This means that it was -probably subsequent to and a result of the industrial developments of -the age of the tyrants; and this dating is confirmed by other -considerations. - -The growth of contempt for labour has been explained by Drumann[119] as -due in part at least to the Persian wars and the resultant plunder, -which must have made a good many citizens financially independent. The -payment of the huge panels of jurymen, which at Athens did so much to -release the poorer citizens from the necessity to work, was an ultimate -outcome of the Persian wars. The Peloponnesian war may have completed -the process. It lasted through nearly thirty campaigns (431–404 B.C.) -and must have deeply disorganized the labour market. Slaves must in all -directions have supplanted the free men who were wanted for military -service, just as women took men’s places in the modern counterpart of -the Greek disaster[120]. The continued campaigning is sure to have left -many of the fighting men with a distaste for the dull routine of -industry[121]. In the _Plutus_ of Aristophanes, brought out in 388 B.C., -Poverty argues against an even distribution of wealth on the ground that -it would destroy the slave trade and drive free men to manual labour as -smiths, shipbuilders, tailors, wheelwrights, shoemakers, brickmakers, -laundrymen, tanners and ploughmen[122]. Rather than return to their -trades they preferred active service in distant lands. When early in the -fourth century Agesilaus of Sparta was campaigning in Asia Minor against -the King of Persia we are told that most of his troops except his own -Spartans were potters, smiths, carpenters and the like[123]. Mechanical -occupations are said by Aristotle to have been in his own days in some -Greek cities mainly in the hands of slaves and outlanders: “in ancient -times in some cities the artizan element (τὸ βάναυσον) was servile or -alien, for which reason most of them are such now[124].” This growing -contempt and dislike for manual labour as such, combined with the -passion for freedom and independence, would make free citizens -particularly unwilling to become factory hands or miners or anything -that meant working under a master for a daily wage, the receipt of which -tended to be regarded as a degradation[125]. Ciccotti[126] observes that -piece work becomes much commoner at this period. He explains the -tendency in abstract Marxian principles. The change may be due to much -more human causes, such as the workman’s growing desire to work his own -hours at his own pace. The work that the free man refused to do was -undertaken by the growing population of slaves. There was at this time a -glut in the slave market, as is sufficiently proved by the single fact -that while the prices of all other commodities went up in the fifth and -fourth centuries, that of slaves went down[127]. Among the unpleasant -occupations that fell more and more completely into servile hands were -mining and quarrying[128], two of the occupations with which we shall -find that the early tyrants were most frequently concerned. - -If therefore in the fifth and fourth centuries citizen craftsmen appear -to have worked mainly in small individual concerns[129], it by no means -follows that the same was the case in the seventh and sixth centuries. -The conditions during the later period were due to causes that only -began to operate during that period. On the other hand industry must -have begun to organize itself into considerable concerns somewhere about -the beginning of the earlier period, at the time of the developments -that are admittedly associated with the beginnings of tyranny. What was -the status of the employees in these earlier enterprises such as the -potteries of Corinth, the sixth century mines at Laurium, or the metal -and woollen works at Samos? Almost our only piece of direct evidence on -this subject is a statement of Alexis[130] that Polycrates the tyrant of -Samos, whose connexion with Samian industry is established in Chapter -III, “used to send for skilled artizans at very high wages (μετεστέλλετο -τεχνίτας ἐπὶ μισθοῖς μεγίστοις).” These highly paid artizans may have -been foreigners—Athenians, Milesians, or the like[131]—but they can -scarcely have been slaves. Indirect evidence in the same direction is -more abundant. Periander for example, the second tyrant of Corinth -(about 620–580 B.C.), is said to have forbidden the purchase of -slaves[132]. This regulation looks like an attempt towards the end of -the period of tyranny at Corinth to stem an influx of servile labour. - -It is doubtful whether slave owning on a large scale existed at this -period[133]. The Greeks of the fifth and fourth centuries regarded -slavery as they knew it as a modern development[134]. Timaeus says[135] -that till recently the Locrians had a law and likewise the Phocians -against possessing either maid servants or slaves (οὔτε θεραπαίνας οὔτε -οἰκέτας) and that Mnason the friend of Aristotle having acquired a -thousand slaves was ill-spoken of (διαβληθῆναι) among the Phocians as -having deprived that number of the citizens of their daily bread. There -is much therefore to be said for the view expressed by Clerc[136] that -free labour flourished afresh in the seventh and sixth centuries B.C. -with the overthrow of aristocracies, or in other words in the age of the -early tyrants. Ciccotti has recently well observed that in all the -literature from the hymn of Demeter to the writings of Plutarch slaves -occupy no place in the picture of social conditions at this period[137]. - -It was long ago recognized by Buechsenschuetz[138] that in preclassical -Greece the manual trades were in the hands of free men, but each man was -his own master, there being no factories or division of labour. In -classical times there was considerable division of labour and there were -businesses employing a large number of hands, but citizens seldom worked -in them. The age of the tyrants falls between the two epochs just -formulated. It is the one short epoch in Greek history when there were -probably considerable industrial enterprises employing citizen labour. -Thus it is the age in Greek history when apart from all details of -evidence there would be the greatest _a priori_ possibility of an -individual having secured the political power which may fall to the -employer of organized free labour on a large scale[139]. - -It is difficult in these days to realize how unique a situation is here -implied. We are apt to forget how completely slaves were excluded from -any part whatsoever in the life of the state. Politically they were -non-existent, and the whole free population was vitally concerned in -keeping them so. The slave was an essential form of property. To -question the institution of slavery in ancient Greece was like -questioning the fundamental claims of property in modern Europe. It was -a proclamation of war to the knife against the whole established order -of things. Individual slaves might win freedom and political rights, but -any organized effort at emancipation on the part of the slaves -themselves was put down with merciless severity. When in 71 B.C. Pompey -and Crassus had crushed the slave rebellion of Spartacus, the moderate -and statesmanlike revolutionary whose name has come again to such -prominence in recent days, six thousand of his followers were crucified -along the road from Rome to Naples. The distance is about 150 miles. At -the time therefore of this exemplary punishment if anyone had occasion -to pass along the road in question, one of the most frequented in the -whole Roman state, he would see some forty of these victims writhing in -agony or hanging dead upon the cross for every mile of his journey. No -piece of frightfulness quite so thorough and methodical is to be found -in all the frightful history of the present century. The punishment of -71 B.C. is typical of the whole attitude of the ancient republics of -Greece and Rome towards rebellious slaves. No wonder then if in their -history servile labour played no active part[140]. - -[Sidenote: (_e_) the history of the states where there was never a - tyrant,] - -Some parts of Greece never passed under a tyrant. The most conspicuous -of these is Sparta[141]. The Spartans never struck real coins. The iron -pieces “heavy and hard to carry[142]” that formed the classical Spartan -currency seem to be a survival of a premonetary medium of exchange[143]. -Sparta was also practically without any urban population[144]. It may be -more than an accidental coincidence that the most anti-tyrannical state -in Greece was without a real coinage, and backward in trade and -industry. - -Another region where nothing is heard of early tyrants is Thessaly. -Thessaly had a large serf population called πενέσται, whose position -much resembled that of the Spartan helots[145]. Both were mainly -agricultural labourers, _asscripti glebae_. Such a population might -serve the purpose of a would-be military despot. Pausanias, the Spartan -generalissimo against the Persians, had dealings with the helots when he -was trying to make himself tyrant of all Greece[146]. But for a -commercial tyrant they would not be very useful material. The other -important district that seems to have been immune from tyrants is -Boeotia. It is natural to associate this immunity with the dominantly -agricultural character of the district where Hesiod wrote his _Works and -Days_[147]. - -[Sidenote: (_f_) steps taken to prevent a recurrence of tyranny.] - -When the tyrants had been suppressed or expelled, or their families -became extinct, the government in most cases either reverted to an -oligarchy or developed into a democracy. Oligarchs and democrats (or at -least democratic governments) seem to have been equally inspired with a -hatred of the tyranny. The steps that they took and the fears that they -displayed under that influence may be expected to throw light on the -source of the tyrant’s power. Once more however it is necessary to limit -ourselves to the fifth century, when the conception of the tyrant had -not yet undergone the great change that came over it in the days of -Dionysius of Syracuse[148]. - -Of the oligarchic Greek states our knowledge is comparatively slight. -History has preserved for us no oligarchic counterpart to the picture -that we still possess of democratic Athens. But thanks to the _Politics_ -of Aristotle, that precious storehouse of incidental statements and -remarks, the fact has come down to us that[149] “in many oligarchies it -is not allowed to engage in business (χρηματίζεσθαι, perhaps better -construed ‘money-making’), but there are laws forbidding it.” - -Of the anti-tyrannical measures of democratic Athens during the century -that followed the expulsion of the Peisistratids we are better informed. -So are we also as to the measures taken in the early days of republican -Rome to prevent a re-establishment of the kingship. The evidence -supports the view that in both cases what the established government -mainly feared was the rich man becoming politically powerful by means of -his riches. - -Only, if that view is right, why is it nowhere specifically formulated -in extant records? - -[Sidenote: The evidence is not conclusive; but contemporary documents - are meagre and no Greek writers say much about economic - causes.] - -One set of causes has already been incidentally indicated. The state of -things that could lead to a tyranny of the early type was passing away -at the time of the Persian wars. The payment of jurymen rendered a -recurrence of it in Athens finally impossible. Sparta had always been -equally averse from making either coins or tyrants. What Athens and -Sparta both disapproved of had little chance of finding a home in fifth -century Greece. It was during this period that Herodotus and Thucydides, -our earliest Greek historians, composed their works. Each wrote the -history of a great war. But even if their themes had been more peaceful, -it would be a mistake to imagine that their enquiries into economic -causes would have been any more searching. Cornford in his illuminating -study of Thucydides[150] complains of the general blindness of the -Greeks in this direction. This is hardly fair on the Greeks. Thucydides -and his successors are not unusually blind. It is the moderns who are -unusual in the way they fix their eyes upon this particular aspect of -history. Only in times of financial and industrial revolution does the -world at large become distinctly conscious of the financial and -industrial basis of its social and political organization. The -revolution now proceeding has produced this effect. It has led modern -historians to concentrate, perhaps unduly, upon the investigation of -economic causes and conditions. From this modern point of view the Bank -of England or the Standard Oil Company is as fruitful and important a -subject of historical research as the policy of a prime minister or the -strategy of a general. But this attitude is unusual. The financial -revolution associated with the realms of Gyges and Pheidon had been -accepted by the whole Greek world before the outbreak of the Persian -wars. For writers of the new epoch that began with Salamis and Plataea -economic conditions must have appeared a changeless and somewhat boring -factor. If the early tyrants had previously been kings of finance or -industry, we must not expect many statements or illustrations of the -fact in the _Persian Wars_ of Herodotus, or the _Peloponnesian War_ of -Thucydides. It should satisfy us if, as is the case, their allusions to -the tyranny are all in complete harmony with that hypothesis. - -[Sidenote: The view is at variance with statements of Plato, Aristotle, - and subsequent writers:] - -The writers of the fourth century offer a more serious difficulty. Both -Plato and Aristotle deal at some length with the origin of tyranny, and -both give explanations quite different from the one that is here -offered. As their accounts have been the basis of all subsequent views, -it is necessary to state briefly what they are. - -According to Plato[151] “it is fairly plain that tyranny develops out of -democracy.” - - When a tyrant comes into being, the root he springs from is the - people’s champion, and no other.... What then is the beginning of - the change from protector to tyrant?... The people’s champion - finding a multitude very ready to follow him ... enslaves and - slaughters, and hints at the abolition of debts and the partition of - land. When such a man so behaves, is he not subsequently bound and - doomed either to be destroyed by his enemies or to become tyrant and - be changed from a man into a wolf? This is what becomes of the - leader of the rebellion against the owners of property[152]. - -Plato goes on to describe how the tyrant either gets banished and -effects his return by force or avoids exile only by the famous expedient -of demanding a bodyguard. - -Aristotle’s account is similar, but less rigid, and emphasizes the -military element. “In ancient times, whenever the same individual became -both demagogue and general, the result was a tyranny. It is fairly true -to say that the majority of the early tyrants have developed out of -demagogues[153].” Other tyrants he describes as establishing themselves -as such after having previously either reigned as kings or held for a -long period some important office[154]. In ancient times Aristotle -includes the fifth century (and perhaps the beginning of the fourth), as -is shown by his quoting Dionysius of Syracuse[155]. Plato’s treatment is -less historical, but as he specifically excludes the possibility of any -other sort of tyrant pedigree than that he gives, his account is plainly -meant to hold good for all periods[156]. - -[Sidenote: but their picture of the rise of tyranny clashes with known - facts about the period,] - -In short both Plato and Aristotle regard their accounts of the -tyrant’s origin as being of general application. As such they have -always been accepted, and not at first sight without reason. The -Platonic-Aristotelian pedigree (with an alternative) is already -ascribed to the tyrant by Herodotus: “under a democracy it is -impossible for corruption not to prevail ..., until some individual, -championing the people (προστὰς τοῦ δήμου) blossoms out into a monarch -(ρεϡτε μούναρχος = tyrant)[157].” But what are the facts? The process -just described makes the early tyrant develop out of a demagogue who -is usually also a general. Demagogues may have existed in Greece -before tyrannies began to be established; but the evidence for their -having done so is extraordinarily meagre[158], and it is highly -doubtful whether Aristotle adds to it. He does not attempt a picture -of a seventh or sixth century demagogue. Those of his own day secured -their influence by confiscations effected through the popular -courts[159]. They are essentially the product of a full-blown -democracy, and pretyrannical democracies are extremely doubtful. -Athens is a special and only partial case, and even there, in spite of -Solon, Herodotus[160] can speak of Cleisthenes, who overthrew the -tyranny, as “the man who established the democracy.” The demagogues -from whom Aristotle derives his early tyrants are mainly military -demagogues: “the tyrant,” he says, “is also prone to make war[161].” - -This statement is hardly borne out by the facts. As a body, in spite of -the times they lived in, the early tyrants were remarkable for their -works not of war but of peace[162]. Some of them indeed, as for instance -Orthagoras and Peisistratus, are reported to have distinguished -themselves as soldiers before they became tyrants. The warlike exploits -of the youthful Orthagoras are discussed below[163]. He cannot have been -really prone to militarism, since Aristotle declares that a successor of -his altered the character of the Sicyonian tyranny by becoming -warlike[164]. Peisistratus’ early feats of war are well attested. -Naturally enough he made political capital out of them. “He asked of the -people that he should receive from them a bodyguard, having previously -distinguished himself in the expedition against Megara, when he captured -Nisaea and performed other great deeds[165].” But earlier in the same -chapter Herodotus has made it perfectly plain that Peisistratus was not -a military despot. “Having formed designs on the tyranny he raised a -third faction, and having collected partizans, and posing as a champion -of the Hillmen, he devised as follows.” It was the faction of the -Hillmen and not[166] the Megarean expedition, that was the -stepping-stone to the tyranny. Who the Hillmen were is discussed in the -chapter on Athens. It has never been suggested that they were -military[167]. - -A military demagogue who makes himself tyrant is essentially the product -of an advanced democracy threatened by invasion from without. When the -tyrants of the seventh and sixth centuries secured their positions there -was no foreign invader without the gates and no democracy within. -Aristotle[168] calls democracy “the last word in tyranny” (ἡ τελευταία -τυραννίς). From the point of view of historical development the converse -comes much nearer to the truth, and tyranny is the first word in -democracy. [Sidenote: and is due to false generalizations from the -conditions of their own days,] The evolution of the tyrant as described -in Aristotle and Plato cannot have taken place until after the reforms -of Cleisthenes or precisely the period when the last of the early -tyrants was finally banished from Greece. The two philosophers, and -likewise Herodotus in the passage just quoted[169], must be reading into -more ancient times a state of things that only became prevalent shortly -before their own[170]. The words of Herodotus are put into the mouth of -Darius. This means that they really hang loose and may be influenced by -the careers of contemporary demagogues like Cleon. - -[Sidenote: and particularly from the career of Dionysius of Syracuse.] - -But the main source of error lies in Plato and Aristotle, and is still -more obvious. The most distinguished figure in the political history of -the early part of the fourth century was Dionysius of Syracuse. -Dionysius is, like Plato’s tyrant in the _Republic_, the product of -democracy: like Aristotle’s in the _Politics_ he begins his career as a -military demagogue. The resemblances are not accidental. Dionysius made -himself tyrant when Plato was just reaching manhood. Plato visited his -court and few political experiments have become more famous than Plato’s -attempt to turn the tyrant’s son into the ideal philosopher king[171]. -Aristotle naturally shared his master’s interest in the famous -Syracusan. His _Politics_ bears frequent witness to the fact. It -contains only eight references each to the tyrant houses of Corinth and -Athens as against twenty to those of Syracuse (eleven to the Dionysii -and Dion, nine to the Deinomenidae). Of the three individuals, -Theagenes, Peisistratus, Dionysius, chosen to illustrate the way a -tyrant may be produced out of a military demagogue, Dionysius is the -only one whose career the process fits. - -Other philosophers of the period wrote under the same dominant -influence, notably Aeschines the Socratic, and Aristippus, both of whom -had stayed with the tyrant[172]. Similarly with the fourth century -historians: their notion of a tyrant was Dionysius as described by that -potentate’s own historian, his fellow-citizen Philistus. - -Everything tended to confirm this view. The greatness of Dionysius -naturally drew attention to that of Gelo and Hiero, his predecessors at -Syracuse. Gelo and Hiero were, like Dionysius, military despots. To -later generations they were the great soldiers who had saved Sicily from -the Carthaginians and Etruscans. Their contemporary Pausanias had tried -to raise himself from generalissimo of the Greek army to tyrant of all -Greece[173]. These events were still in men’s minds. Of the earlier -tyrants they had only hazy notions[174]. The best remembered were -probably the Peisistratids, both from their late date and from the fact -that they were Athenians. Peisistratus, as has been already noticed, -chanced early in his career to have distinguished himself as a soldier. -It so happened that Polycrates, the other great tyrant of the latter -half of the sixth century, also engaged in war. It was forced upon him -by the Persians. The evidence is all against the view that it was the -basis of his power. But the warlike achievements of these two rulers, -the last and perhaps the greatest of the earlier tyrants, lent colour to -Aristotle’s hasty generalizations[175]. - -Aristotle himself, speaking of the ways of maintaining a tyranny, says -that “the traditional method, in accordance with which most tyrants -conduct their government, is said to have been mainly instituted by -Periander of Corinth[176]?” Only a few pages later in the same work[177] -we are told that Periander abandoned the policy of his father Cypselus -and that he did so by becoming warlike or in other words by -approximating more to Dionysius of Syracuse. Once more then the typical -tyrant of Aristotle is a ruler who departs from the policy of a typical -founder of an early tyranny. - -For an example of the victory of the Aristotelian view over the truth we -may compare Herodotus, I. 59, which states that Peisistratus, who had -fought against Megara, made himself tyrant by means of the faction of -the Hillmen, with Justin, II. 8, according to whom “Peisistratus, as -though he had conquered (the Megareans) for himself, not for his -country, seized by craft the tyranny.” Justin is a perversion of a -passage in Chapter 14 of the Aristotelian _Constitution of Athens_, -which states that Peisistratus, “having the reputation of being a great -friend of the people, and having greatly distinguished himself in the -war against Megara,” secured his bodyguard and the tyranny. Aristotle -misinterprets the Hillmen and exaggerates the importance of the Megarean -expedition. Justin omits the former altogether and makes the latter the -sole cause of Peisistratus obtaining the tyranny. - -Aristotle’s conception of the tyrant class as drawn mainly from that of -the military demagogue was taken over by the Romans. In the chapter on -Rome it will be shown how little this conception fits in with the -Romans’ own early history. But the times before the great wars at Rome -(Samnite, Pyrrhic, Punic) are like those before the Persian wars in -Greece. They belong to a different epoch from those that follow. The -later history of the Roman republic harmonizes with Aristotle’s view. -The Gracchi may be represented as demagogues who failed to make -themselves supreme for lack of military power[178]. Marius, Pompey, and -Caesar succeeded in proportion as they realized the Aristotelian -combination. The fourth century conception was therefore unchallenged by -Roman writers, the more so since Dionysius appears for a while to have -dominated the Roman conception of a Greek tyrant[179]. Fortunately -however, owing to the careless way the Roman historians worked over -their material, they have left us glimpses of the different conditions -that had once existed. - -The view that was thus disseminated in classical Greece and Rome was -naturally accepted by the scholars of the renaissance and has prevailed -ever since. - - - - - Chapter II. _Athens_ - - -[Sidenote: Exceptional position of Athens.] - -Of all the tyrants of the seventh and sixth centuries none are so well -known to us as those who reigned at Athens. No other city has left us so -clear a picture of the state of things not only during the tyranny but -also immediately before and after it. Solon lived to see Peisistratus -make himself supreme. Herodotus, born a Persian subject about 484 B.C., -must have had opportunities of questioning first-hand authorities on the -later years of the Athenian tyranny, while his younger contemporary -Thucydides was in a particularly favoured position for getting -information on this subject through his relationship with the Philaidae, -of whose rivalry with the Peisistratidae there will be occasion to speak -later in this chapter[180]. - -This comparative abundance of information is the reason why Athens has -been made the starting-point of this enquiry. But even so our knowledge -is meagre enough. And there is a special reason for using it with -caution. So far in the history of the world there has been only one -Athens. The developments that took place in the city during the first -two centuries of the democracy are without parallel. Can we be certain -that Athens was not already unique in the period immediately preceding? -One point in which the Athenian tyranny was exceptional meets us at the -first glance. [Sidenote: Athens before the establishment of the -tyranny.] With the single exception of Samos, all the other famous -tyrannies of the earlier type, at least in the Aegean area, arose in the -seventh century. But apart from this fact it will be found that the -tyranny at Athens in the sixth century followed the same course as it -appears to have done at places like Corinth and Argos, Sardis and -Miletus in the seventh. The more highly developed an organism is, the -longer it takes to reach maturity. This is perhaps the reason why Athens -in the sixth century appears in some respects to be a hundred years -behind some of the cities whom she was destined so completely to -eclipse. - -Athens was not exclusively commercial. Her large territory made her -partly agricultural. To this fact may be due her failure to compete -commercially in the seventh century with cities like Aegina and -Corinth[181]. Hence too the late rise of the tyranny. It appears only -when the commercial and industrial element had got the upper hand. There -was indeed the attempt of Cylon, who conspired to make himself tyrant -within a generation of the first appearance of tyranny on the mainland -of Greece[182]. But Cylon failed because, though wealthy (ὀλυμπιονίκης) -and influential (δυνατός), he could not possibly, in the Athens of his -day, be the leader of any dominant organized commercial activity. He was -merely an ambitious member of the aristocracy (τῶν πάλαι εὐγενής), -connected with the great band of merchant princes only by marriage[183]. -The attempt and its result are both what might have been expected from -the position of Athens at the time. - -Soon after Cylon’s attempt Athens began to rival Corinth in the pottery -trade, and the influence of the rich city merchants and exporters -doubtless increased. But even in pottery the great vogue of Attic ware -was still to come, and Solon’s measures for encouraging the growth of -olives and the export of olive oil also belong to this period[184]: the -importance of the landed aristocracy who owned the olive yards must have -increased almost equally. No merchant therefore attempted by means of -the wealth that he had amassed or the labour that he employed to seize -the tyranny. The landed aristocracy were also wealthy and they too -employed much labour, and it so happened that the best part of the Attic -plain, where lay their estates, was situated round the city, as Cylon -discovered to his cost when he seized the Acropolis. Tyranny was almost -impossible. - -The leading man at Athens was not a mere millionaire, as in the more -exclusively trading states. Solon had indeed some experience of -trade[185], but he was essentially a politician with a gift for finance, -not a financier or merchant with political ambitions. He became not a -tyrant but a lawgiver. - -[Sidenote: Peisistratus makes himself tyrant by organizing a new party.] - -Solon tried to provide for the difficulties that he saw resulting from -the existence of two evenly matched parties, the landowners of the plain -and the traders of the coast. The tyranny arose from the political -organization of a new interest by Peisistratus, who, to quote the exact -words of Herodotus: - - While the coast men of Athens and those of the plain were at - strife ... having formed designs on (καταφρονήσας) the tyranny, - proceeded to raise (ἤγειρε) a third faction[186]. - -Some ancient writers represent Peisistratus as owing his tyranny to his -gifts as an orator or demagogue[187]. Reasons are given in Chapter I for -not accepting this view, and also for not believing that it was mainly -as a successful soldier that Peisistratus secured the throne[188]. It -was as founder and leader of the “third faction” of Herodotus that -Peisistratus made himself tyrant, and he seems largely to have built up -his influence with them by rendering them aid, doubtless financial[189]. - -To understand the position of Peisistratus and to ascertain the basis of -his power it is obviously of the first importance that we should know -who precisely were the men who made up this third faction. Unfortunately -this question cannot be answered directly from the information that has -come down to us. So before sifting the evidence that bears on it, it -will be well to examine some later and better known phases of the -tyrant’s career. - -[Sidenote: How Peisistratus “rooted” his power.] - -After the tyrant had first established himself he is reported to have -been twice banished and twice restored. After his second restoration “he -proceeded to root his tyranny with many mercenaries, and with revenues -of money, of which part was gathered from the home country, part from -the river Strymon[190].” - -The Strymon (Struma) flows through the famous mining district which was -afterwards annexed by Philip of Macedon, and brought him his enormous -wealth. It is scarcely conceivable that Peisistratus’ revenues from this -region came from any other source than the mines[191]. Hence Guiraud, in -his interesting but sober account of ancient Greek industry, has already -been led to suggest that Peisistratus’ Attic revenues were derived from -a similar source, and that he worked the mines of Laurium[192]. - -[Sidenote: How he secured his second restoration.] - -Peisistratus was not using revenues from mines for the first time in his -career, when he proceeded to “root his tyranny” in the manner just -described. He had already used the same means to compass his second -restoration. When driven from Athens for the second time he had -“proceeded to the parts round Pangaion, where he made money, and having -hired soldiers he went back to Eretria, and in the eleventh year made -his first attempt to recover his position by force[193].” Herodotus -appears to think that all the period of exile was spent at Eretria; but -he too states it to have been spent in collecting money (ἕως ... τὰ -χρήματα ἤγειρε). The result was that “he now held the tyranny -securely[194].” Mt Pangaion is the name of the great mining district to -the East of the lower Strymon. The mention of it confirms the view that -Peisistratus had a personal connexion with the Thracian mines. Eretria, -on the West coast of Euboea, is an obvious place from which to swoop -down on East Attica, but on the other hand in Euboea too there were -mining districts[195], and Eretria had a settlement just to the East of -Mount Pangaion, if Svoronos is right in his very plausible -identification of the modern Kavalla with the “Skabala: a place of the -Eretrians” of Stephanus Byzantinus[196]. - -About the tyrant’s first restoration there is only a story in Herodotus -which the historian himself describes as a “very silly business.” Its -consideration is best left over till we have dealt with his original -seizure of the throne. If for this earlier stage of his career the -evidence is less specific, we must not be surprised. Like Augustus, -Peisistratus was careful, especially at first, to observe the outward -forms of the constitution which he overthrew, so that the realities of -the situation would not be patent to everybody[197]. - -[Sidenote: The “Hillmen” through whom Peisistratus made himself tyrant] - -The party through which Peisistratus made himself tyrant is called by -Herodotus the Ὑπεράκριοι[198]. The Aristotelian _Constitution of Athens_ -calls them the Διάκριοι[199], Plutarch sometimes Διακριεῖς sometimes -Ἔπακροι[200]. The English terminology is equally fluctuating. Hill, -Mountain, and Upland have all been used. - -Modern historians have mostly explained the party as made up of small -farmers, agricultural labourers, herdsmen and the like, and have -generally assigned them to one special district, the mountainous region -of North and North-east Attica[201]. But this view, as shown below in -detail in an appendix[202], is based on a misunderstanding of the texts -that are quoted in its support, and is at variance with all the ancient -evidence, whether as regards the political propensities of agricultural -labourers or the state of cultivation of the Attic mountains. It takes -no account of the facts just brought forward as to how the tyrant -regained and maintained his power. - -[Sidenote: were probably the miners of the Laurium district] - -In a paper that I published in 1906[203] these facts were made the basis -of a new explanation of the Hillmen of Peisistratus. According to the -view there put forward the most important section of Peisistratus’ -followers were the miners who worked the famous silver mines of South -Attica, and it was as leader of this mining population that Peisistratus -raised himself to the tyranny. At the time this view was little more -than a conjecture, topographically dubious. Of the only two places, -Plotheia and Semachidai, known to have been situated in the Hill -Country, Plotheia had been shown by tombstones to lie somewhere between -Marathon and Kephisia[204], and as this fact seemed to confirm the -theory of an exclusively Northern Hill Country, Semachidai, for the site -of which as within the limits of the three trittyes of its tribe no -evidence was available, was placed up in the North in the inland -trittys. But that this location was wrong is made practically certain by -the discovery of an inscription, published in 1910 by the Greek scholar -Oikonomos, that bears directly on the point. [Sidenote: which was -certainly part of the Hill Country] It dates from 349–8 B.C. and defines -the position of various mining concessions. One of them is described as -near Laurium and bordered on the South by the road leading past Rhagon -to Laurium and the Semacheion[205]. - -The Semacheion is convincingly explained by Oikonomos as the shrine of -Semachos, who gave his name to the deme Semachidai[206]. From this fact -he proceeds quite logically to argue that we must decide on a more -Southerly position for that deme than those proposed by Milchhoefer and -Loeper[207], “since the mine to the South of which Semachidai lay, was -situated in the neighbourhood of Laurium[208].” Semachidai belonged to -the tribe Antiochis[209]. In the electoral organization of Cleisthenes -the coast trittys of the tribe Antiochis occupied the Western part of -the mining district, including the villages of Amphitrope (Metropisi), -Besa, and Anaphlystus. Thus Oikonomos’ conclusions are confirmed by the -fact that his Semacheion falls within the borders of Antiochis. But -whereas technically this mining district formed the coast trittys of the -tribe, we have the evidence of Philochorus, writing early in the third -century B.C., that it was spoken of as part of the Epakria or hill -country[210]. - -How suitable this name was may be illustrated from the Semacheion -inscription itself, in which the sites of mining claims are three times -defined by reference to a ridge or hill crest (λόφος)[211]. - -As seen from _C.I.A._ II. 570, the Epakria of 400 B.C. was a religious -organization[212], apparently with only a local political significance. -[Sidenote: and probably the Hill Country _par excellence_.] This fact -makes it probable that the name was already ancient, and that Plutarch -and the _Lexicon Seguerianum_ were right in equating it with Diakria and -Hyperakria[213]. There is indeed the possibility of a confusion of -names. But on the other hand the names suggest a common origin. They are -all compounds of ἄκρον. It is curious that nobody in recent times seems -to have asked what was the ordinary connotation of ἄκρον to the Athenian -of antiquity[214]. There seems little doubt as to what it was. - -In Attica the ἄκρον _par excellence_ was Sunium. Already in the -_Odyssey_ Sunium is the ἄκρον Ἀθηνῶν[215]. The same phrase reappears in -Aristophanes[216]. Strabo refers to Sunium as τὸ τῆς Ἀττικῆς ἄκρον[217]. -Some early scholars recognized this fact. Palmerius explained the -Diakrioi as the people living between the two capes, Sunium and -Cynosura, and the Hyperakrioi as those who dwelt beyond Sunium, “beyond” -being used presumably from the point of view of those coming by sea from -Athens[218]. Albertus held that the Diakrioi were so called because they -lived “in promontoriis Atticae[219].” - -Plato indeed in the _Critias_[220] speaks of Πάρνηθος τῶν ἄκρων; but for -the Athenians the peaks of Parnes are ἄκρα with a local qualification, -not simply τὸ ἄκρον or τὰ ἄκρα; just as we in England speak of the peaks -of Snowdon or Skiddaw, but apply the word unqualified to the heights of -Derbyshire. The unqualified expression applied to the Northern heights -of Attica was “the land of the mountain (ἡ ὀρεινή)[221],” not “the land -of the ἄκρον.” The name Diakria appears therefore to be derived -geographically not from Mount Parnes but from Cape Sunium[222]. - -Herodotus, as already noticed, gives the Sunium district another name. -He calls the country between Sunium, Thoricus, and Anaphlystus, _i.e._ -the Laurium mining district, by the name of the γουνὸς Σουνιακός[223]. -But as in the same sentence he speaks of the ἄκρη of this district, his -allusion is less of a difficulty to regarding this district as the -original Diakria than it is to the orthodox view, which identifies it -with the Paralia (Coast). Especially is this so if we assume that by his -days the name Diakria had spread Northward beyond the mining region, so -that a new name was wanted for the Southern apex of the peninsula. This -assumption is of course only a reversal of the current view, that -extends the name indefinitely Southwards from Parnes. - -It has sometimes been forgotten in the discussion of these names that we -are dealing with common nouns that were used by the Greeks with -different connotations at different places and periods like the English -downs or forest[224]. Epakria appears to have been used in more than one -sense even within the limits of Attica[225]. Possibly the name was -applied at large to any region of ἄκρα. If we prefer to assume that it -spread from a single district the balance of probabilities points to the -name having spread Northwards from the district round Sunium. - -From yet another point of view the words Diakria, Hyperakria, Epakria -favour the mining interpretation. The inhabitants of El Dorado of Greek -legend, the land of the Golden Fleece, are said to have occupied the -ἄκρα of the Caucasus[226]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 1. Lophos Loutrou from Daskalio station.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 2. On the road from Daskalio station to Plaka.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 3. Kamaresa.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 4. Kitsovouno from Kamaresa.] - - Views in the Laurium mining district. - -The ἄκρα of the Caucasus are of course not capes but peaks. Trinakria on -the other hand is the land of the three capes. It is important to -remember that the word ἄκρον has no equivalent in English. It means peak -or height as well as cape or headland. To attempt to keep these two -meanings separate is to commit a mental mistranslation. Though Sunium is -the ἄκρον _par excellence_, the whole Σουνιακὸς γουνός abounds in ἄκρα, -or as the inscriptions call them, λόφοι (crests, ridges)[227]. Bursian -describes the hills of Laurium (Lauriongebirge) as a continuous mountain -chain, and includes it with Parnes, Brilessos, and Hymettos among the -main ridges (grössere Gebirgszüge) of Attica[228]. The writer has spent -some days walking in the mining district. The sea is always near, and -glimpses of it may be had frequently. But it is the hills that dominate -the landscape, not the sea. More particularly is this the case in the -district that was most mined in the sixth century, where the ground -varies in height from 170 m. to 370 m. (550–1200 feet), and lies well -inland[229]. - -In the light of this probability that the Diakrioi occupied the mining -district of Attica, and of the fact that their name means hill men, it -is interesting to note that the Idaean Dactyls, who “are said to have -been the first miners,” are stated also to have been men of the -mountains[230], and that in German and Welsh the words for miners -(Bergleuten, gwyr y mynyddau) mean literally “hill men.” - -The Greek word Diakrioi would have a peculiar appropriateness for -miners. The ἄκρον is precisely the part of a hill that the farmer has -least use for. Miners on the other hand preferred to carry on their -smelting operations on the hill tops, because a better draught is thus -secured[231]. - -It has been pointed out by Milchhoefer[232] that the mining district is -considerably broken up by the Cleisthenic division of Attica into -trittyes. Milchhoefer’s arrangement of the trittyes in the mining -district has been convincingly simplified by Loeper[233], but Loeper -himself leaves the mines divided between three trittyes of three -different tribes. We may therefore still follow Milchhoefer in thinking -that Cleisthenes took special precautions to break up this district. The -same fact is noticed by Milchhoefer about the district round Plotheia, -the Northern deme already noticed as belonging to the Epakria. Here too -the Russian scholar has simplified, but here too only to a limited -extent. “In a breaking up like this of the old hill country of the -Peisistratids” Milchhoefer sees unmistakable signs of “measures directed -against the Peisistratids.” Now that we have as good reason for seeing -Peisistratan hill country round Laurium as round Plotheia, we must -either reject Milchhoefer altogether, or, more probably, see in both -districts centres of Peisistratan influence, of which the Southernmost -was the more important. Mining operations in antiquity were conducted on -a large scale. Forty thousand workers were employed in mines near -Carthagena[234]. - -Athenaeus[235] speaks of tens of thousands of chained slaves as working -in the Laurium mines and losing their lives in an unsuccessful revolt at -the time of the second slave war in Sicily (103–99 B.C.). Of the 20,000 -who deserted to Decelea when it was occupied by the Spartans in 413 B.C. -it is not unlikely that large numbers were miners from Laurium[236]. - -But what was the state of the Laurium district in the days of -Peisistratus? - -[Sidenote: The mines were almost certainly in full work at this period,] - -The mines of Laurium do not appear in history till 484 B.C.[237], when -Themistocles persuaded the Athenians to devote the profits from them to -the building of a navy. The _Constitution of Athens_ speaks of a -discovery of mines in that year. This however is probably rather loose -language. The writer’s words are “on the discovery of the mines at -Maronea.” The “discovery” of 484 B.C. was of the mines in this -particular part of the Laurium district, or rather, in all probability, -of an extraordinarily rich vein in this particular part. “The -disposition of the strata” (at Maronea) “is such that the richest are -not those that could be first reached.... Some centuries of search and -effort were therefore necessary in order to suspect their existence and -to reach their level” (_i.e._ of the rich veins “discovered” in -484)[238]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 5. Corinthian terra cotta tablet depicting a miner -at work.] - -Plutarch says that before this time the Athenians were in the habit of -distributing the Laurium revenues among themselves, and that -Themistocles had the courage to persuade them to give the habit up[239]. -This agrees with Xenophon where he declares that “no one even attempts -to say from what period people have tried to work them[240].” The mines -of Lydia, Cyprus, and Spain all appear to have been developed in the -seventh century B.C.[241]. The Siphnian mines were at full work about -525 B.C.[242]. Mining operations are depicted on several Corinthian clay -tablets, that cannot be later than the early part of the sixth -century[243]. One of them is here reproduced (fig. 5). - -Herodotus says nothing about the date of discovery of the Attic mines in -his account of the proceedings of 484 B.C.[244]. It would not be like -him to keep silence about an epoch-making discovery, or even a -phenomenal “rush,” if any had occurred just at this time. Elsewhere he -tells us that the Siphnians were already distributing among themselves -the money from their mines about the year 525 B.C.[245]. - -Modern writers have been inclined to talk of the great “rush” of -484[246]. But against the silence of Herodotus they can set only the -reference in the _Constitution of Athens_ to the “discovery” at Maronea, -which has been discussed already. What made the great impression at this -time was probably not so much the output as the employment of the output -on the building of a fleet. That surely is the point of the contemporary -allusion in the _Persae_ of Aeschylus. The chorus of Persian elders -tells the Persian queen about the Athenians’ - - Fount of silver, treasure of the land[247] - -just after mentioning the prowess of the Athenian troops, and just -before explaining the weapons that they use. - -The idea proposed in 484 by Themistocles was not original. Seven years -earlier the Thasians had used the revenues from their mines to build a -fleet against the Persians[248]. It was doubtless the success of the -Athenian fleet in a supreme crisis that caused the Athenians to remember -with such pride this triumph of the voluntary system. - -There can therefore be no question that the mines were worked in the -sixth century[249]. But if we are to understand the position of the -leader of the mining interests at that period, we must learn something -about the conditions and position of the miners. - -[Sidenote: and the miners free men, good material for a political - faction.] - -The leaders of the Plain and Coast had a powerful body of citizens -behind their backs. The mines on the other hand, at least from the time -of Xenophon, were worked almost exclusively by slaves[250]. - -In the fourth century very occasionally poor citizens worked their own -allotments[251]. Skilled work like smelting seems always to have been -done by free men. The tombstone of “Atotes the miner,” carved in letters -of the second half of the fourth century, declares that he was a -Paphlagonian “of the root of Pylaimenes, who fell slain by the hand of -Achilles,” and boasts of his unrivalled skill[252]. But there is no -recorded instance of a citizen working in a mine for wages[253]. This -however does not prove that they did not do so in the days of -Peisistratus, when, as pointed out in the introductory chapter, the -conditions of labour must have been very different from what they became -in the fifth and fourth centuries, and industrial slavery had scarcely -yet begun. A fragment of Solon suggests that it was quite usual in his -days for citizens to work with their own hands, though whether for pay -or on their own account is not stated and no particular occupations are -specified[254]. - -About ten years after Solon’s legislation the Athenians are found -resolving “on account of their factions to elect ten archons, five from -the nobility (Eupatridai), three from the farmers (agroikoi), two from -the craftsmen (demiourgoi)[255].” The equation of these three groups of -archons with the three factions of the Plain, Coast, and Hill is more -than doubtful[256]. The farmers _par excellence_ are naturally located -in the plain: also it is doubtful whether Peisistratus had already -“raised the third faction” twenty years before he became tyrant, and -over fifty before his death. The two different sets of names point in -themselves to two different groupings of the population. Solon’s -quadruple division into pentekosiomedimnoi, hippeis, zeugitai, and -thetes proves a certain fluidity and tendency to cross grouping. But in -any case the two craftsman magistrates prove that craftsmen or artizans -were already an important element in the free population. - -In this matter of free labour in an industry such as mining, fifth -century Phrygia is perhaps a better guide than the Attica of Nikias or -Demosthenes as to the state of things in Attica during the sixth -century. In Phrygia a generation after the Samian tyrant Polycrates, who -died about 522 B.C., Pythes was working mines with citizen labour[257]. -Even in Athens in the early days of Pericles the earlier conditions seem -still to have prevailed. “Each trade τέχνη had its body of (free) -labourers organized (τὸν θητικὸν ὄχλον συντεταγμένον)” to carry out the -great public works that were financed from the Delian treasury. A long -list of the trades thus organized ends with miners[258]. - -Considering the evidence already adduced for equating the sixth century -miners at Laurium with the presumably free Diakrioi, may we not use the -notices already quoted about the latter as being of impure race and a -mob of hirelings[259], and infer that in the sixth century the mines of -Laurium were worked by free men, partly of foreign extraction and mainly -working for hire? - -This is of course conjecture. But it produces for the first time a -picture of the Diakrioi that harmonizes with the notices in question. -Alien shepherds and alien small farmers are most unlikely in -autochthonous Attica. - -Outlander miners on the other hand have always been familiar, wherever -there have been mines to work. When mining operations were resumed at -Laurium some thirty years ago, the immediate result was a very mixed -population, the local supply of labour being supplemented from France, -Italy, and Turkey. One of the ancient gold mines near Philippi bore the -significant name of the asylum[260]. In the Laurium district itself in -ancient times the people of at least one deme, Potamioi, were famous for -their readiness to admit foreigners to citizenship[261]. Potamioi is -placed by Loeper right in the centre of the mining district, well away -from the sea[262], and very near the probable site of Maronea[263]. A -member of the deme Semachidai is found sharing a tombstone with two -strangers from Sinope[264]. We have just had occasion to notice a -Paphlagonian miner, though of a later date, and we shall see in a moment -that in the sixth century the mines of Laurium were worked in close -connexion with those of Thrace. There are no records of specific -Thracians employed in the Attic mines during the sixth century. We only -know that just after the Persians conquered Thrace, at the close of the -reign of Hippias, there was a large Greek element in the mining -population near the Strymon[265]. But in the fifth century we have a -famous case of a Thracian mine-owner settling in Athens in the person of -Thucydides, whose father was a Thracian, and whose Thracian mines -probably lost him his command in the Athenian navy, and turned a -second-rate admiral into the greatest of historians[266]. Nikias hired -out a thousand hands whom he owned in the mines to Sosias the -Thracian[267]. - -This ends our examination of the various steps by which Peisistratus -made himself tyrant, effected his second restoration, and finally rooted -his power. In all three cases the evidence points to the conclusion that -the secret of the tyrant’s power was his control of mines either in -Attica or Thrace. To complete the enquiry it is necessary now to examine -the accounts of his first restoration. As observed already, this event -is recorded only in anecdotal form. As independent evidence it would -hardly be worth considering. All that is here claimed for it is that it -can be so interpreted as to corroborate the conclusions already reached. - -[Sidenote: The strange story of Peisistratus’ first restoration] - -According to the story Peisistratus persuaded the Athenians to take him -back by dressing up a stately woman named Phye to personate Athena and -order his recall[268]. It is generally agreed that this story will not -do as it stands. Various attempts have been made to explain it -away[269], but all of them are equally unconvincing. Perhaps the reason -is that all alike are based on some single unessential detail of the -story. None of them interprets it in the light of the better known parts -of the tyrant’s career, and more particularly of the matter of fact -accounts of his second restoration. Beloch indeed, like the Russian -Hirschensohn, believes that there was only one restoration, with which -the Phye story and the account of Peisistratus’ return from the Thracian -mining district are both to be connected[270]. He notes that the cause -of banishment is the same in both cases; that the chronology is -suspiciously symmetrical; that Polyaenus combines incidents from the two -restorations; and that Eusebius[271] and Jerome[272] both make -Peisistratus begin his second reign about the time that Herodotus begins -his third, while neither of them mentions a third reign at all. Note too -that corresponding to Phye in the first restoration we have in the -second a “sacred procession” from the temple of Athena Pallenis -conducted by an Acarnanian soothsayer[273]. - -These points are not convincing. Similar improbabilities, and -repetitions and chronological symmetries can often be discovered in -narratives of the most unquestionable authenticity[274]. The fact that -Polyaenus combines the two accounts proves nothing, unless we assume him -to be incapable of confusing two similar events. Further, Beloch is -forced to make the marriage of Peisistratus with Megacles’ daughter -precede his first exile, since he sees that the childlessness of the -marriage led to the breach with the Coast[275]. In this he goes dead -against the tradition on a point where there is no reason to suspect it. - -What Beloch’s arguments do emphasize is the fact that the situations -during Peisistratus’ two periods of exile were in some ways very -similar. The sameness of the two situations may in fact be the reason -why so little has been remembered about the earlier. It raises the -question whether the tyrant mined and coined during his first exile. -There is no certainty that he did either, but the probability is that he -did both. As regards Thrace we know that Miltiades, probably with -Peisistratus’ permission and approval[276], had settled in the Gallipoli -peninsula soon after the tyranny was first established at Athens[277]. -Thrace is the one region that we can be sure that the tyrant must have -considered as a possible place of exile. [Sidenote: is connected by -Babelon with the Athena-head coins of Athens] As regards the coinage it -has been suggested on the high authority of Babelon[278], that the -famous series with the owl on one side, and the head of Athena on the -other (fig. 6), which remained for centuries the coin types of the city, -was actually started to commemorate the help that the tyrant claimed to -have received from his patron goddess at the time of his first -restoration. - -[Illustration: Fig. 6. Coin of Athens with Athena and owl.] - -The evidence is not conclusive. The arguments for and against this date -are based on a few literary references that are too vague to be of much -use, on points of style and technique from which it is notoriously -dangerous to draw conclusions, on a comparison of the coin and pottery -statistics from Naukratis which it is no less dangerous to use as -evidence, on a hoard found in 1886 among the pre-Persian remains on the -Athenian Acropolis which, as far as the circumstances of the find are -concerned, may have been lost or deposited there long before the -catastrophe, and only establish a _terminus ante quem_ that nobody would -think of disputing, and on certain alliance coins (Athens-Lampsacus, -Athens-Sparta?, Athens and the Thracian Chersonese)[279]. These last -look more promising at first sight, but only the Athens-Lampsacus coins -can be dated with any certainty, and they, unfortunately, are very -small, and may have been struck under difficulties, so that it is not -easy to be sure of their chronological position in the Athenian series. - -We are driven back therefore on to the impressions of experts, most of -whom agree with Babelon that the owl-Athena series cannot begin either -much before or much after 550 B.C.[280]. That is to say that this double -type was certainly in vogue when the tyrant secured his second -restoration by means of his Thracian silver[281], and “rooted his -tyranny” in revenues derived “partly from the river Strymon, partly from -home.” - -[Sidenote: nicknamed (probably just about this time) girl, virgin, - Pallas.] - -Pieces with the double type were sometimes colloquially called girls -(κόραι), sometimes virgins (παρθένοι), sometimes by the virgin goddess’ -own name of Pallas (Παλλάδες)[282]. Sometimes they got their nickname -from the reverse type, and were called owls[283]. “Virgin” is used by -Euripides, “girl” by Hyperides, “Pallas” by Eubulus, “owl” by -Aristophanes. “Owl” is said by the Aristophanes Scholiast to have been -applied to the tetradrachms; the “girl” of Hyperides is some smaller -coin[284]. In the fifth and fourth centuries therefore the bird name, -and the virgin goddess names seem to have been used side by side, like -our sovereign and crown, to indicate two different denominations. When -the names were first used is nowhere stated. The most likely time for a -type to give rise to a nickname is when the type itself is still a -novelty. If this holds good for the coins of Athens, the nicknames -Pallas, virgin, and girl go back to the time of Peisistratus. The owl -had already appeared on earlier issues, stamped on the reverse with a -simple incuse[285], and would therefore at this time attract less -attention than the Athena head. - -Is it possible that we have here the clue to the Phye story? The details -about her being dressed up in full armour and placed in a chariot are -not the essence of the story: they all appear in Herodotus in quite a -different setting, as part of the ritual of the worship of Athena in -North Africa by Lake Tritonis[286]. It can hardly be doubted that one of -these passages is plagiarized from the other, and it is scarcely less -certain that Phye is indebted to the ritual of Lake Tritonis and not -_vice versa_. - -[Sidenote: Was the Athena who restored Peisistratus the lady of the - coins?] - -The kernel of the Phye story lies in the tradition that Peisistratus was -restored by a woman, “as Herodotus says, from the deme of the Paianians, -but as some say, a Thracian flower girl from the deme of Kollytos[287].” -In fact Phye, the human goddess four cubits high, said by some to come -from Attica, and by others from Thrace, who brought Peisistratus back to -Athens for the first time, bears a suspicious likeness to the coins -called sometimes girls and sometimes goddesses, derived some from -Attica, and some from Thrace, with which Peisistratus secured his second -return, and finally established his power. - -Assume for the moment that they were indeed identical, and it is easy to -see how the Phye story may have arisen. Peisistratus certainly claimed -to rule by the grace of Athena. Everyone is agreed in inferring from the -Phye story that he attributed his restoration to the intervention of the -goddess. After the citizens had fulfilled Solon’s prophecy, and -“consented to ruin their great city, induced by money[288],” what more -natural than that one of the tyrant’s opponents should sarcastically -agree that it was indeed Athena who had restored Peisistratus: on which -another might comment that it was not the virgin goddess of Athens who -had restored the tyrant, but an alien being of quite a different order, -a Thracian flower girl. [Sidenote: cp. (i) details in the story that -suggest a derivation from the coins,] The name of flower girl -(στεφανόπωλις) is never applied to Athenian drachmae. If we accepted -Head’s early dating for the Athena type, and assumed a Peisistratan date -for certain Athenian coins[289] where the goddess has had her hair done -by a κεροπλάστης[290] in corkscrew curls (fig. 7_a_) that suggest an -early date[291], and wears the garland (στέφανος) of olive leaves (fig. -7_a_, _b_) that appears regularly on coins of the fifth century, we -might find in flower girl (lit. garland seller, στεφανόπωλις) an -allusion to this detail. The garland seller may often have advertised -her garlands by wearing one herself[292]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 7. Athenian coins: the wreath on the head of -Athena.] - -Numismatists however are now unanimous in making the earliest στέφανοι -on Athenian coins later than Peisistratus[293]. To describe the coins as -flower girls would however be natural enough on the simple supposition -that Athenian flower girls had no high moral reputation[294], and -further perhaps that the business was in the hands of Thracians, just as -that of organ-grinding in England is in the hands of Italians. Or -conceivably στεφανόπωλις on our present hypothesis is to be explained by -reference to the phrase δραχμαὶ (τοῦ) Στεφανηφόρου (drachmae of the -garland bearer)[295], applied at Athens to coins fresh from the mint, -such as must have been put into circulation in large quantities when -Peisistratus returned after his money-making in the districts round Mt -Pangaion. - -How readily to the Greek the garland suggested the flower girl is seen -from an explanation in the _Lexicon Seguerianum_ of a certain -“garland-bearing hero (στεφανηφόρος ἥρως).” It runs: “Either because the -hero is so called, or by way of nickname, because he had many garlands -round him, _or because garlands were sold near him_[296].” The coins -themselves, especially when the garland was the new feature, may -possibly have been sometimes called garland bearers (στεφανηφόροι), as -is shown to be possible by the analogy of such descriptive coin names as -“chest bearer (κιστοφόρος)[297]” and “harp bearer (κιθαρηφόρος)[298].” - -[Sidenote: (ii) attested instances of _Jeu de mot_ on coin types,] - -Such bitter jesting is quite in keeping with the Greek language; the -Greeks were particularly fond of attributing appropriate life and action -to types of living things that figured on their coins[299]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 8. Persian “archer.”] - -The best known instance of a play on such a nickname is that of -Agesilaus of Sparta, who complained that he had been driven out of Asia -by thirty thousand of the Great King’s archers, a colloquial name for -the Persian gold stater or Daric (fig. 8), derived from its type[300]. - -In Athens itself we find Euripides, in a fragment of the _Sciron_, -playing on the double meaning of “virgin,” as also on that of “pony” -(πῶλος), the colloquial name of the Corinthian drachma, that bore on one -side the image of the winged steed Pegasus: - - Some you will secure if you offer a pony, - others with a pair of horses, while others are brought - on four horses, all of silver; and they love - the maidens from Athens when you bring plenty of them. - -The reverse type of the Athenian drachma is punned upon by Aristophanes, -who speaks of the owls of Laurium nesting in the purses of the Athenians -and hatching small change[301]. In 404 B.C., during the final operations -against Athens, Gylippus, the hero of the siege of Syracuse, -misappropriated a large amount of Athenian coin, and hid it under the -tiles of his roof. The theft was revealed by a servant, who informed the -ephors that “there were many owls nesting under the tiles[302].” - -These examples are enough to show that there is nothing improbable in -the suggestion that the Phye story grew out of a remark made by the -tyrant’s enemies about his silver drachmae. Our explanation is of course -pure conjecture, and even at that it has one weak point. The statement -that Phye was a Thracian, so essential to our interpretation, does not -appear in Herodotus, according to whom she came from the Paianian deme -in Attica[303]. - -Can this omission be accounted for? - -There is an anecdote told by Herodotus in quite another connexion[304] -which suggests that it can. - -[Sidenote: (iii) the story of the dressed-up woman] - -In the days just after King Darius had made his conquests in Thrace -(about 512 B.C.), there lived on the banks of the Strymon two brothers -named Pigres and Mantyes, who wished to become tyrants of the land in -which they lived. To carry out this aim “they went to Sardis, taking -with them their sister, who was tall and handsome.” Then waiting till -Darius was sitting in state before the city, having dressed up their -sister as well as they possibly could, they sent her for water with a -pitcher on her head and leading a horse with her hand and spinning flax. -She was noticed by the king, but the result was that he sent an -expedition to her country, and deported her people to Asia. - -The Strymon and Pangaion mines are at this period, before the expansion -of Macedonia, naturally described as Thracian[305]. But in the days of -King Darius, who began his reign about five years after the death of -Peisistratus, part of the country round Mt Pangaion[306], and part of -the banks of the Strymon[307] were occupied by another race called -Paionians. It was to this latter race that Pigres and Mantyes belonged. -[Sidenote: who caused Hippias to lose his throne] They failed to secure -the tyranny that they sought; but the expedition sent by Darius to -deport the Paionians to Asia probably caused Hippias to lose his. - -[Sidenote: as a result of losing his Paionian (Thracian) possessions.] - -It can scarcely be an accident that the tyranny at Athens ended almost -immediately after the removal of one of its two roots, the mines of the -country of the Thracians and Paionians[308]. - -Thus we find the restoration of the tyranny at Athens and its abolition -both ascribed to the dressing up of a tall handsome woman[309]. It is -hardly conceivable that both these events were brought about by the same -“primitive and excessively simple” means. The Paionian dressing up has -every appearance of being the original[310]. - -It is possible that the whole Phye story arose at the time of the -Paionian incident, just as the good stories about some of the bad Roman -emperors must have first had a circulation only after the emperor had -ceased to reign. When Hippias had lost his Thracian and Paionian mines, -and consequently his throne, it might be said with additional point that -the Athena who had restored the father had now deserted the son[311]. - -If the Paionian story is contemporary, as it well may be without being -either true or original, it accounts for the appearance in the -Peisistratus story of a dressed-up woman. Further we have brought the -story down to a period in the history of Athenian coinage when the -garland may already have made its first appearance on the head of -Athena[312], in which case “Thracian garland seller” becomes an -effective description of the type. - -Thus the whole story, as it appears in the Aristotelian _Constitution of -Athens_, has been accounted for. In this, as in the account of -Peisistratus’ second exile, the author of the treatise seems to be -following a better authority than Herodotus. Herodotus’ deviations -appear to be attempts at rationalistic explanation in the best -Herodotean style. From Herodotus’ account of Peisistratus’ second exile -it is plain that he knew nothing of the tyrant’s connexions with Thrace, -of which we are informed in the Aristotelian treatise. According to -Herodotus the whole period of the second exile was spent in Euboea. -Hence the Thracian reference had to be rationalized away. But a fact -mentioned by Herodotus in another connexion[313] points to Hippias -having maintained some sort of position in the North Aegean till the end -of his reign. When in 510 B.C. he was banished, a home was offered him -by the king of Macedon. - -Thrace and Paionia might be used indifferently in the original account, -the latter being the more accurate name, the former the more popular. -Herodotus takes Paionian as a corruption of Paianian, and Thracian as a -popular version of Paionian. That Herodotus himself was personally -responsible for the emendation Paianian is made probable by the words of -the _Constitution of Athens_, “as Herodotus says, a Paianian, as some -say, a Thracian.” The Paionians are made by Herodotus[314] to recognize -their own name in the paian or war-cry of their enemies. Only the verb -appears in the anecdote, and that in the form παιωνίζω, but Herodotus -must have been equally familiar with the forms in -α-, παιανίζω, παιάν, -and the anecdote shows how ready he would be to equate Paionian with -Paianian. I am dealing here with pure speculation, but so too has been -every one else who has tried to explain away this “extraordinarily silly -business[315].” The explanation just offered is at least in harmony with -the rest of our knowledge about both Peisistratus and Thrace. - -Greeks were certainly capable of misunderstanding a _jeu de mot_ based -on a coin type. Mention has been made already of Aristophanes’ -invocation of the “owls of Laurium” to nest in his purse[316]. A -Scholiast on the _Knights_ has turned these owls of silver into real -birds. “The owl,” he says, “is the sacred bird of Athena, that haunts -Laurium in Attica[317].” - -[Sidenote: The tyrant Histiaeus and the Thracian mines.] - -Whatever the truth of these speculations there is no doubt that the -Greeks of the end of the sixth century were fully alive to the political -possibilities of the Thracian mines. Just after the Persian conquest of -Thrace and Paionia Histiaeus of Miletus, one of the Persian king’s Greek -vassals, almost succeeded in securing from the Great King possession of -Myrcinus, a mining centre in the very district from which Peisistratus -had got so much of his wealth[318]. He was in fact granted the gift by -Darius, who however was persuaded by the far-sighted Megabazus to recall -it. What alarms the Persian statesman is the prospect of an able Greek -like Histiaeus establishing himself in a place where there are silver -mines and forests suitable for ship-timber and a large mixed population. -He prophecies that this population will quickly become the employees of -the new owner and do his bidding day and night[319]. - -The Myrcinus incident is bound up in the narrative of Herodotus with the -story of Pigres and Mantyes and their efforts to become tyrants of the -Paionians[320]. Herodotus says definitely that Histiaeus did not aim at -establishing a tyranny at Myrcinus[321]. But this statement seems to be -simply an inference from the fact that Histiaeus was already tyrant of -his own city of Miletus. Even if it is correct, the protests of -Megabazus and their effect on Darius, who at once removed Histiaeus to a -sort of honourable captivity in Persia, sufficiently show that according -to Herodotus himself Myrcinus would have made Histiaeus in the eyes of -Darius and Megabazus a different and altogether more dangerous sort of -ruler[322]. - -It was still comparatively recently that Peisistratus had “rooted” his -power at Athens partly on revenues from the river Strymon. When -Histiaeus’ activities near that river so greatly alarmed the Persians, -it is hard to believe that they were not thinking largely of the -Peisistratids. Thus we have a confirmation of the view that the -Peisistratids’ Thracian revenues had been derived from the silver mines, -and the large mixed population that worked them. - -[Sidenote: Labour and commerce under the tyranny.] - -When once established Peisistratus certainly set himself to secure -control of a large amount of labour by the public works that he -promoted. Kallirrhoe (the Fair Spring), the best source of the Athenian -water supply, was improved by him into Enneakrounos (the Nine -Fountains)[323]. The building that shelters the actual jets is depicted -on a black figure vase[324]. Like Polycrates and the seventh century -tyrants, he was a great builder; the group of Athena slaying a giant, -excavated on the Acropolis in the eighties of the last century[325], -probably belongs to the temple that he built to Athena[326]; his temple -of the Olympian Zeus was not completed till the time of Hadrian. Like -Periander of Corinth, he severely repressed idleness[327]. To -Aristophanes, writing just a century after the fall of the tyranny, the -Athens of Hippias appeared as a city of labourers[328]. - -Beloch well insists on the acute commercial instinct of Peisistratus in -getting a footing on the coast of the Hellespont by the seizure of -Sigeium[329]. Hippias not only kept his hold on the town to the last, -and eventually retired there, but actively developed his father’s line -of policy by forming a close personal connexion with the tyrants of -Lampsacus[330], and effecting a reconciliation with the Philaids, his -rivals on the European side of the strait[331]. - -[Sidenote: Financial troubles of the tyranny before its overthrow.] - -According to the pseudo-Aristotelian _Oeconomica_, Hippias on one -occasion called in the Attic coinage at a fixed valuation, and then -reissued the same money[332]. Some scholars have tried to explain away -this last statement, and assume a change in the type[333]. But if, as is -natural to suppose, χαρακτήρ in this passage means type, then the Greek -implies that no such change was made. The other actions of Hippias -recorded in the same passage are confiscations of property (front doors, -projecting top stories of houses, etc.), sold again, with no alteration -whatever, to the original owners. Six and Babelon[334] maintain that -χαρακτήρ means denomination, and that Hippias proceeded to give the name -of didrachm to a piece that had been previously a drachm. They quote -with some effect the statement of the Aristotelian _Constitution of -Athens_[335], ἦν ὁ ἀρχαῖος χαρακτὴρ δίδραχμον. Their arguments, though -plausible, are not decisive: but whatever the explanation of these -particular words, the whole passage makes it fairly certain that the -step was an attempt to avert a financial crisis by some desperate -manipulation of the coinage. It points to a serious threat of -approaching insolvency, such as must have been the inevitable result of -the loss of the Thracian mines[336]. - -[Sidenote: The Alcmaeonid opposition to the house of Peisistratus.] - -No aspect of the tyranny at Athens can be adequately examined without -some reference to the remarkable family that from first to last with -only one brief lapse led the opposition to the tyranny[337], and after -its overthrow played the principal part in moulding the destinies of the -democracy. In the earlier part of the sixth century the Alcmaeonidae had -become extremely rich. That is the fact that emerges from the story of -Alcmaeon and the king of Lydia told in Herodotus[338]. They were at the -head of the faction of the shore, and Meyer is probably right when he -says that their “enormous” wealth was due to trade with Lydia[339]. The -fall of Lydia must have meant heavy losses to the family[340]. It is -probably no accident that Peisistratus appears to have “rooted” his -tyranny only after his rivals had suffered this great financial blow. - -Nor is it probably a pure coincidence that as the Peisistratids secured -their power by a mixture of commercial enterprise and political -intrigue, so it was by a mixture of political intrigue and commercial -enterprise that they were finally driven out, through the Alcmaeonidae -undertaking the contract for rebuilding the temple at Delphi[341]. - -This building operation was regarded by the Athenian informant of -Herodotus as an expensive but effective way of purchasing divine -favour[342]. But the Aristotelian _Constitution of Athens_ says -otherwise: “the Alcmaeonidae secured the contract for building the -temple at Delphi, and made a fortune as the result[343].” The two -versions may not be so contradictory as they at first sight appear. A -way of reconciling them is suggested by Philochorus (early third century -B.C.), who makes the Alcmaeonids accept the contract, make their money, -successfully attack the Peisistratids, and then give rich -thank-offerings to the Delphic god[344]. Isocrates and Demosthenes -confirm the statement that Cleisthenes organized the expulsion of the -Peisistratids with money secured from Delphi, but both regard the money -as a loan[345]. - -But Delphi recalls yet another field of Alcmaeonid activities. According -to the official Delphic records not Solon[346], but Alcmaeon, the -paternal grandfather of the Athenian Cleisthenes, was the Athenian -general in the “sacred” war which early in the sixth century was waged -by the Amphictyons, and particularly Athens and Sicyon, against the -people of the Delphic port of Krisa. The significance of this war is -discussed below in the chapter where Sicyon is dealt with in detail. -Here it is enough to notice that Cleisthenes of Athens was, through his -mother, the grandson of his namesake the tyrant of Sicyon who took so -prominent a part in this “sacred” war. He was probably also his -heir[347]. In the days of Hippias Sicyon seems to have been still under -a tyrant, but not of the house to which Cleisthenes belonged. His name -was Aeschines. Evidence has been adduced by De Gubernatis[348] for -believing that this Aeschines was an ally of Hippias of Athens. As we -shall see below when dealing with Sicyon, his attitude towards Delphi -was a pivotal point in the policy of the Sicyonian Cleisthenes, and in -his later years Sicyon and Delphi became deadly rivals. Athens can -hardly have kept out of the feud. We know little of the course of -events, and the history of recent years shows how idle it would be to -assume that internal revolutions are always reflected in foreign -politics. But we may be sure that both in Athens and Sicyon an -anti-Delphic policy would have its opponents as well as its -supporters[349]. It is quite conceivable that the Athenian Cleisthenes -had once aimed at a union of central Greece with Athens, Sicyon, and -Delphi as the three chief states of the union and Cleisthenes himself as -the chief statesman, controlling the immense treasure of the oracle and -basing on it a tyranny over the two other cities, with Sicyon -controlling the trade of the Peloponnesus and the far West while Athens -did the like for the Northern trade and developed with the Persian -empire those friendly relations which the Alcmaeonidae were still -suspected of favouring at the time of the battle of Marathon. If this is -all speculation it at least recalls the fact that the received accounts -of Cleisthenes are all centred on what he did in Athens in the few years -following the fall of Hippias. That indeed is practically all that is -known about the second founder of the Athenian democracy; but -considering his varied antecedents and his remarkable ancestry it is -well to consider how small a chapter this must have been in what was -probably a long[350] as well as an eventful life. But to return to the -short chapter about which something is known we find that the way -Cleisthenes secured his position against the banished tyrant was by -outbidding him. “He enfranchised many foreigners and slaves and -metics[351].” The Peisistratids had ruled Athens as masters. -Cleisthenes, by the stroke of genius so excellently epitomized by -Herodotus, “took the people into partnership[352].” - -It was this memorable partnership that dealt the cause of tyranny at -Athens its final blow. Cimon indeed appears to have tried to make -himself all-powerful in the state by the lavish outlay of his enormous -wealth. But the result was only to cement the partnership between his -Alcmaeonid rival and the people. The army, the navy, and the civil -service became paid professions, or at least paid occupations, and the -state, with Pericles at its head, perhaps the largest and most popular -employer of the free population. Individuals of outstanding wealth were -more and more kept in their political place by having to perform -expensive liturgies. To make a public display of wealth became a -perilous thing; anyone who did so was suspected of aiming at the tyranny -and dealt with by ostracism or other effective means. - - - - - Chapter III. _Samos_ - - -[Sidenote: Samian trade and industry in the seventh and sixth centuries - B.C.] - -The Samians had from early times been great shipbuilders and sailors. -They were among the first of the Greeks to adopt the Corinthian -invention of the trireme, somewhere about the year 700 B.C.[353], and in -most of the naval warfare of the next two hundred years they are found -playing a prominent part[354]. Still more important were the -achievements of their merchantmen. It was a Samian ship, commanded by -Kolaios, that “sailing towards Egypt, put out for Platea (in Libya) ... -and hugging the Egyptian coast, continued their voyage, carried along by -an east wind: and since the breeze did not drop, they passed the pillars -of Herakles and arrived at Tartessus, enjoying divine guidance. That -market was at that time unopened (ἀκήρατον)[355].” The opening up of the -Spanish silver mines through the port of Tartessus, the biblical -Tarshish, was an event of first-class importance. “On their return home -these Samians made the greatest profits from the carrying trade -(φορτίων) of all the Hellenes of whom we have exact information, -excepting only Sostratos the Aeginetan[355].” The date of the Samian -voyage to Tarshish appears to have been about 620 B.C.[356]. - -It was a Samian, Xanthias by name, who about the same time as this -brought to Egypt “on business” the famous Greek hetaera Rhodopis[357]. -When Amasis, king of Egypt from 569 to 526 B.C., “showing himself a -friend of the Greeks ... and to those that came to Egypt, gave the city -of Naukratis to dwell in[358],” Samos was one of the three Greek states -to set up an establishment of its own there[359]. These establishments -were of course commercial. “In the old days Naukratis was the only -market in Egypt. There was no other[360].” - -Samian trade developed side by side with Samian industry. From early -times the islanders had enjoyed a great reputation as workers in metal, -especially the fine metals[361]. The beginning of the connexion with -Tartessus at the end of the seventh century gives the latest probable -date for the beginning of this industry. Samian woollen goods were no -less famous[362]. - -[Sidenote: Why no tyranny was established till the middle of the sixth - century.] - -The island was not however exclusively commercial. There was a powerful -landed aristocracy called γεωμόροι[363], who doubtless owned the rich -Samian olive-yards[364]. The late date of the tyranny in Samos is -probably to be explained by the power of the γεωμόροι. The result was -something very similar to what occurred under similar circumstances at -Athens. There may have been attempts like that made at Athens by -Cylon[365], but no tyrant appears to have established himself firmly -before the rise of Polycrates early in the second half of the sixth -century. Till then the geomoroi were sufficiently powerful to make a -tyranny impossible. Then, about 545 B.C., the Samian landowners received -a fatal blow to their power, when the Greek cities on the coast of Asia -Minor were conquered by the Persians. These cities, whether friendly or -hostile to Samos, were all equally its commercial rivals, and the -disturbances connected with the Persian conquest, which affected them -all while leaving Samos untouched, must have greatly increased the -importance of the commercial element on the island[366]. - -[Sidenote: Polycrates becomes tyrant: his tyranny and Samian trade.] - -It was within a few years of these events that Polycrates made himself -tyrant of Samos. The exact date is not known, but it was probably -after[367] the Persian conquest of the mainland, and may well have been -due in part to the increased commercial importance of Samos which -resulted from that conquest. - -However this may be, Polycrates, when established as tyrant, is found -controlling the commercial and industrial activities of his state. All -through his reign he was a great sailor and shipowner[368]. He built the -famous breakwater in the Samian harbour[369], and was credited with the -invention of a new type of boat, called the Samaina[370] (see fig. 9). - -[Sidenote: The wars and “piracies” of Polycrates and their possible - commercial character.] - -The general conception of the Samian tyrant is indeed that he used his -ships in naval and piratical operations rather than for peaceful -purposes of trade. Thucydides says of him that “having a powerful fleet -he made divers of the islands subject to him, and in particular captured -Rheneia and dedicated it to the Delian Apollo[371].” But even the -capture of Rheneia, which Thucydides seems to regard as the principal -warlike achievement of Polycrates’ fleet, was one that may have had -important commercial consequences. By capturing Rheneia Polycrates -became practically master of Delos. He celebrated the Delian games[372]. -Considering the unrivalled situation of Delos it is not unlikely that -the festival was even in the sixth century the “commercial affair[373]” -that it was in later ages, and such as others also of the great Greek -games appear to have been from the days of the tyrants[374]. In that -case it is not inconceivable that the repeated purifications of Delos in -the sixth and fifth centuries may have had not only a religious -signification, but also the purpose of restricting a commercial element -that was constantly reasserting itself. - -We need not be surprised to find a commercial potentate exerting his -power by means of an army or navy. War has so far in the world’s history -always stood in the immediate background of even the most peaceful -political power. There is nothing in the nature of a capitalist -government to make it anti-militarist. If, as seems to have been the -case, the early tyrants realized how seldom war does anything for -commercial prosperity except to ruin it, it only shows them to have been -men of unusual insight, as indeed there are many reasons for thinking -that they were. If Polycrates was an exception to the generally peaceful -character of the early tyranny, the fact may be explained by his -antagonism to Persia, with which he appears to have been openly at war -during part of his reign[375]. - -Our records of this war contain obvious mis-statements about the death -of Cyrus, and their whole truth has been questioned[376]. But the -hostility of Polycrates to Persia is sufficiently shown by his -friendship with Egypt. His break with Amasis king of Egypt can scarcely -be anything but a desertion to the common enemy Persia. The catholic -character of his piracy, which stopped all shipping though it -confiscated only hostile craft, is not really explained by his jest when -he claimed that by this method he not only injured his enemies whose -ships he kept, but also secured the gratitude of his friends, whose -ships he released. His proceedings become really comprehensible only if -we understand them as one of the earliest instances of a strict -blockade, plainly directed against the great land power to the east. The -Peloponnesian expedition against Polycrates shows simply that the -neutrals to the west did not yet realize who was their real enemy[377]. -The danger from Persia only became apparent to European Greece when -Darius invaded Scythia and Thrace[378]. - -There is every reason to believe that Polycrates supported Cambyses -half-heartedly and under compulsion. He went over to the Persian side -only when Cambyses was collecting a force against Egypt[379], or in -other words when the Great King was advancing on the Mediterranean with -an overwhelming force. He sent to his support only a disaffected -contingent that was a source of trouble and weakness to him at home in -Samos[379]. He met his death not so very long after, in an attempt to -break away from Persia at what must have been the very first -opportunity, just about the time when Cambyses fell ill[380]. - -On the whole therefore it seems best to accept as historical the account -of the war between Cyrus and the Samians, since though only mentioned in -late authors, it accords so well with all that is known of the period -from early sources. It is ascribed to the period when Samos ruled the -waves[381], which we have seen already to mean the reign of Polycrates, -and this indication as to date agrees with the statement[381] that the -war occurred at the end of Cyrus’ reign. It brings Polycrates into a -situation which alike in its patriotic and in its selfish side -anticipates the attitude of Dionysius of Syracuse towards Carthage. But -even this war may have been in part an attempt to maintain Samos in her -commercial and industrial position. From the Samian point of view war -with Persia meant first and foremost a struggle against Miletus. The -island city and its neighbour on the mainland had long been rivals, and -the supremacy of the one had meant the depression of the other. Miletus -was now under the Persians and had made favourable terms with her -conquerors. What Cyrus was aiming at in Anatolia is made sufficiently -plain to us by the description in Herodotus of the way that he treated -the conquered Lydians. They were to bring up their children simply to -play music and to become retail traders[382]. A similar account is given -by Zenobius: “they say that Cyrus, having overcome the Lydians, charged -them to become retail traders (καπηλεύειν) and not to acquire -arms[383].” Zenobius says nothing about the music. There can be little -doubt that the trading was the main thing. Both writers say that Cyrus’ -object was to prevent the Lydians breaking out into armed rebellion, and -this may be true as far as it goes. But Cyrus did not treat all his -rebellious provinces in this way. It looks as though he intended to make -conquered Sardis, devoted entirely to trade and with the Persian army -behind it, into the commercial capital of his kingdom, with Miletus as -its chief seaport. This policy, if successful, would have been -disastrous to the trade of Samos. May it not have been to prevent it -that Polycrates organized the fleet and pursued the naval policy that -won him such fame and unpopularity? We have an instance of rivalry -between Polycrates and Sardis in the “laura” which he constructed at -Samos, the significance of which is discussed below[384]. - -In any case Polycrates employed his fleet for commercial purposes as -well as warlike. He traded with Egypt[385], which was the one Eastern -country that was during most of his reign independent of Persia and open -to Samian trade. The statement of Clytus the Aristotelian that -“Polycrates the tyrant of the Samians from motives of luxury gathered -the products of every country[386]” shows that Polycrates had a personal -interest in the transport trade. There is unfortunately nothing to show -that he employed his own vessels. - -[Sidenote: The tyranny of Polycrates and Samian industry.] - -It is difficult again with the available evidence completely to identify -the tyrant with Samian industry. He was the patron of Theodorus, who was -famous not only as a jeweller, but also as a maker of metal vases[387]. -The possible significance of this fact will be seen in a moment, when we -proceed to examine the statements about Polycrates’ activities before he -became tyrant. There is however no evidence that Polycrates was himself -engaged in the Samian metal industries during his reign. For the woollen -industries the evidence is stronger. Among the things which -Athenaeus[388] declares that Polycrates, when tyrant, introduced into -Samos are sheep from Miletus. Athenaeus is here quoting Clytus. Later in -the same passage he quotes another writer, Alexis, as stating that the -tyrant imported sheep from Miletus and Attica. The sheep were of course -imported not for their mutton but for their wool: the wools of Miletus -were particularly famous. During his reign Polycrates lent support to -Arcesilaus III, king of Cyrene in “sheep-rearing Libya[389]” and himself -probably a merchant prince[390], who when banished from his own -dominions sought refuge with the Samian tyrant[391]. - -[Sidenote: The tyranny of Polycrates and Samian coinage.] - -One reported act of Polycrates seems out of keeping with the view that -he was a great merchant. “It is said that Polycrates struck a large -quantity of local coins in lead and then gilded them and gave them to -them in payment[392].” Herodotus, our authority for this statement, -dismisses it as idle (ματαιότερος). But it is supported by numismatic -evidence[393], and the reason alleged for the issue in Herodotus is -perfectly plausible. Polycrates was resorting to a desperate expedient -for getting rid of an invader. Apart from the question of its truth, the -report is valuable as indicating that Polycrates, like his contemporary -Hippias, was credited with a tendency to make practical experiments with -the coinage. This is borne out by another report, quoted by Suidas[394], -according to which the Samaina reputed to have been invented by -Polycrates was not a ship but a coin. - -The two reports are not necessarily contradictory. The tyrant may have -introduced both the ship and the coin, like Anaxilas, tyrant of Rhegium, -who introduced the hare into his dominions and commemorated his action -by putting a hare on his coins (fig. 9). The Samaina is found on extant -Samian coins (fig. 9), some of which appear to have circulated in Samos -itself about the middle of the fifth century, while others have been -associated with the Samian refugees who migrated to the far West in 494 -B.C. and occupied Messana in Sicily with the aid of Anaxilas of Rhegium, -whose subjects they became. The type cannot be traced back to the days -of Polycrates himself, but the numismatic evidence is not abundant -enough to make that fact decisive. As far as it goes it even inclines -slightly in favour of Suidas. If the coin type used by the refugees of -494 B.C. appears later on the coins of Samos itself, the fact is best -explained by assuming that it was already in use in Samos before the -earlier date. Moreover one of the coins generally associated with the -refugees is inscribed with the letters Α Ι, which have no obvious -connexion with Messana or the Samians who went there, but which do on -the other hand form the first syllable of the name Aiakes, the name of -the Samian tyrant from whom the refugees fled to Messana. Aiakes was a -nephew of Polycrates, so that if the Α Ι coin is rightly ascribed to him -the Samaina type is traced back to the family of Polycrates, if not to -Polycrates himself. Aiakes had been restored to Samos by the Persians -after their defeat of the Greek fleet at the battle of Lade. In that -battle the Samian fleet, with the exception of the ships manned by the -men who fled later to Sicily, had disgraced itself by deserting to the -Persians. Aiakes profited by their proceedings but he can hardly have -been proud of them. If he struck coins with the Samaina type it is more -likely to have been because his uncle had done so before him than from -any desire to commemorate either his own exploits, whether as a -shipbuilder or a sailor, or those of his uncle, who so successfully -defied the Persian power to which the nephew owed his throne[395]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 9. Samian coin with Samaina and Messanian coin with -hare.] - -[Sidenote: The public works of Polycrates during his tyranny, including - an aqueduct and a harbour breakwater.] - -In his domestic policy Polycrates won great fame as the promoter of -great public works. “I have dwelt the longer on the Samians,” says -Herodotus[396], “because they have erected three works that surpass -those of all the Greeks.” The works in question are the harbour -breakwater already mentioned, the huge temple of Hera, and the -underground aqueduct constructed by Eupalinus of Megara[397]. Herodotus -himself does not say who was responsible for these works being -undertaken; but the context shows that the historian is thinking of the -Samos of Polycrates. The first architect of the temple is given by him -as Rhoecus, the partner of Theodorus, who worked for Polycrates. Great -engineering activities in Samos about this time are indicated by the -fact that the engineer who shortly afterwards bridged the Bosporus for -Darius was a Samian[398]. The breakwater round the harbour is naturally -ascribed to the time of the Samian thalassocracy under Polycrates. There -is therefore little doubt that modern scholars and archaeologists have -been right in identifying these great constructions with the -“Polycratean works” referred to by Aristotle[399] as typical -undertakings of a typical tyrant, the more so as there are numerous -instances of early tyrants undertaking these particular kinds of -work[400]. - -One work of a similar kind that Samos owed to Polycrates deserves at -least a passing notice, namely the “laura” that he erected as a rival to -what is called in Sardis the Ἀγκὼν γλυκύς[401]. Etymologically “laura” -is probably to be connected with “labyrinth[402].” The word has various -meanings[403]. The laura at Samos appears to have been a place for -buying and selling[404], possibly an early predecessor of the -labyrinthine bazaars still in use in the great cities of the near East -such as Smyrna, Cairo, and Constantinople[405]. - -If Polycrates’ laura was in fact a great bazaar, it is easy to imagine -how it became a byword for luxury[406] and worse things than that. The -description of it by Clearchus as a place of ill-repute is plainly from -a source unfriendly to the tyrant[407]. - -[Sidenote: The labour employed on these works appears to have been - mainly free.] - -Whatever the facts about the laura, the sums that Polycrates spent on -his public works in general and the number of hands that he employed on -them must have been very large. Of the life led by these employees we -know little. Aristotle states that the object of the tyrant’s works was -“the employment and poverty of his subjects[408].” This implies that the -work was ill-paid and unpopular. It is doubtful however whether -Aristotle quite understood the social and economic conditions of sixth -century Samos[409]. On the other hand no inferences as to the normal -wages in the days of the tyrant are to be drawn from occasional -instances of high payments made by him for exceptional work[410]. One -fact however becomes plain from the statement in the _Politics_. The -hands employed by Polycrates must have been mainly free men. - -Like some tyrannical employers of labour in more recent times, -Polycrates appears to have recognized the value of having his employees -provided with amusements of not too elevated a type. Holidays and -drunkenness appear to have been frequent under his regime[411]. The -encouragement or permission of unprofitable amusements for the multitude -is of course quite consistent with great severity in other -directions[412], and more particularly with the suppression of the -liberal forms of recreation popular among citizens of the better -class[413]. - -[Sidenote: The tyrant’s mercenaries.] - -He maintained his power by means of mercenaries, native it should be -noticed, as well as foreign[414]. These mercenaries were in all -probability a development of the fifteen men at arms[415] with which he -had seized supreme power, and, like the original fifteen, they were -presumably free men[416]. - -[Sidenote: His pension scheme for the mothers of fallen soldiers.] - -While on the subject of Polycrates’ warlike achievements it is -interesting to note that he did something to put military service on a -sound financial basis by providing for the mothers of soldiers who fell -in his service. The way he did so is described by Duris, a historian of -Polycrates’ own island, who was born about 340 B.C.[417]. “He gathered -together the mothers of those who had fallen in war, and gave them to -the wealthy among the citizens to support, saying to each, ‘I give you -this woman to be your mother.’” No provision was made for the widows; -but from the Greek point of view this was hardly required. They would -naturally be provided for by their second husbands[418]. The method of -financing this popular measure recalls the Athenian liturgies. The -measure itself points to the tyrant’s troops having been free men. - -One fact recorded of the times just after Polycrates’ fall appears at -first sight to offer a reason for assuming that Polycrates had relied on -highly trained servile labour, which the city had found it a problem to -deal with after his fall. A large number of slaves purchased the -citizenship[419]. There is however a simpler explanation of this fact. -Syloson, the brother of Polycrates, when restored by Persia, had almost -annihilated the free population[420]. - -Polycrates the tyrant has therefore been shown to have taken some part -in the commercial, the industrial and probably the financial activities -of the city that he ruled. - -[Sidenote: Before he became tyrant Polycrates already had a concern in - the chief Samian industries.] - -Let us now see what is known about his career before he had made himself -supreme in the state. - - Before he had become tyrant he used to get expensive coverlets and - drinking vessels made, and lend them out to those who were holding - weddings or entertainments on a particularly large scale. - -These words are from Athenaeus[421]. It could scarcely be more -definitely stated that Polycrates owed his throne to his wealth in -coverlets and drinking vessels. - -The coverlets (στρωμναί) are surely the manufactured article for which -Polycrates subsequently introduced Milesian and Attic sheep. The word -seems to denote a Samian speciality. A form of the corresponding verb -(ἔστρωται) is used by Theocritus in the passage where he refers to the -famous wools of Samos and Miletus[422]. - -It seems probable that Polycrates’ brother and partner at first in the -tyranny was also a merchant or manufacturer of woollen goods. At any -rate after his banishment we find Darius wanting to buy a cloak (χλανίς) -from him. According to Herodotus[423] it was the one that Syloson was at -the moment wearing. The incident took place in Egypt. Syloson was one of -the Greeks who followed Cambyses there after the Persian conquest. Some -of these had come as traders (κατ’ ἐμπορίην), some as soldiers, some as -mere sight-seers. Syloson, who was in the market place at Memphis at the -moment of Darius’ request, replied: “I am not selling this at any price; -but I offer it you for nothing.” What precisely Syloson was doing in the -market place is unfortunately not certain. According to Grote[424] he -was just walking there. The Greek is ἠγόραζε, which may mean -“frequenting the market place,” or “buying,” or “selling in the market -place.” The incident suggests rather the last meaning, and that Syloson -was in Memphis as a trader (κατ’ ἐμπορίην) in cloaks (χλανίδες). The -unromantic commercial aspect of the transaction between Syloson and -Darius, which is already obscured in Herodotus’ account, has quite -disappeared in that of Strabo[425], who says simply that Syloson “made a -present to Darius of a garment which he had seen him wearing and taken a -fancy for ..., and received the tyranny as a present in return.” - -The drinking vessels (ποτήρια) were almost certainly of metal. Ποτήρια -of earthenware are only once[426] mentioned in the passages quoted in -Liddell and Scott’s _Lexicon_, whereas there are numerous passages in -which ποτήρια are specifically stated to have been of metal[427]. In the -case before us the fact that they were lent and for entertainments of -special importance points strongly to metal[428]. We have just seen that -Theodorus, who worked for Polycrates later in his career, was a maker of -metal ποτήρια. It may well be the case therefore that Theodorus was -something more to Polycrates than merely his crown jeweller and -silversmith[429]. - -The Samian silversmiths got their material from Tartessus[430]. -Polycrates must therefore have had at least a second-hand interest in -Samian shipping before his accession. In the outline of my views on the -origin of the tyranny published in the _Journal of Hellenic Studies_ for -1906 I observed that there was no evidence that Polycrates procured his -silver in his own ships. [Sidenote: Aiakes father of Polycrates is -probably the Aiakes whom a Samian inscription appears to connect with -sea-borne trade.] That is still the case; but curiously enough only a -few weeks after this observation was made, a find from Samos itself was -published[431], which, with the learned and illuminating comments of the -scholar who published it, has thrown fresh and interesting light on the -close concern which the family of Polycrates already had in Samian -shipping in the days when the future tyrant was still a child. The find -consists of a headless seated statue[432] (fig. 10) that at once recalls -the figures from Branchidae now in the British Museum[433]. The style -both of the figure and of the lettering of the inscription attached to -it point to a date about 550 B.C. The statue was dedicated by Aiakes the -son of Bryson. Aiakes is not a common name. It was borne by the father -of Polycrates. It is not improbable that, as L. Curtius maintains, the -Aiakes who dedicated the statue was none other than the tyrant’s father. -The date suits exactly: so too does the inscription as ingeniously -interpreted by Curtius. The actual words are: - - Ἀεάκης ἀνέθηκεν ὀ Βρύσωνος ὂς τῇ Ἤρῃ - τὴν σύλην ἔπρησεν κατὰ τὴν ἐπίστασιν. - -The context makes it difficult to derive ἔπρησεν from πίμπρημι. Nor can -ἐπίστασις well signify “dream” (visit by night), since the analogy of -κατ’ ὄναρ, κατ’ ἐνύπνιον shows that in that case κατὰ would not be -followed by the article. Curtius therefore takes ἔπρησεν as Ionic for -ἔπρασσεν in the common sense of “exacted,” “collected”: for the single ς -he compares Τειχιούσης for Τειχιούσσης, which actually occurs on one of -the figures from Branchidae. The word σύλη he explains by reference to -Herodotus IV. 152, which describes how the Samians, on their return from -the voyage to Tarshish, “set apart the tithe of their gains, six -talents, and let make a copper cauldron after the manner of an Argive -mixing bowl, and dedicated it in the Heraeum[434].” - -[Illustration: Fig. 10. Aiakes, father of Polycrates.] - -The gains from Tarshish, so Curtius suggests, may actually have been -called σύλη, the idea of which word he thinks had grown to include all -gains made by ventures on the sea. The name of Polycrates’ brother -Syloson is almost certainly to be derived from σῦλον (= σύλη, see above) -and σῶν = σαῶν from σαῶ = σῴζω (save)[435]. Curtius rightly observes -that this name takes the connexion of Polycrates’ family with σύλαι, -sea-spoils, sea-gains, back to the time when Syloson received his name, -that is, presumably, a generation or so before he and his two brothers, -Pantagnotos and Polycrates, seized the tyranny of their native city. - -[Sidenote: Polycrates is said by Herodotus to have owed his fall to an - attempt to get money enough to rule all Greece.] - -The great wave of the Persian invasions of Europe, that began only a few -years after Polycrates’ death, and the rise of the Athenian empire after -the Persians’ final repulse, have somewhat eclipsed the glory of the -Samian thalassocracy, which practically synchronized with the tyranny of -Polycrates. During his reign he was unquestionably the most famous Greek -in the whole Greek world, and his extraordinary series of unbroken -successes was reported and discussed everywhere[436]. From the Greek -point of view, according to which all excesses are to be avoided, -whether of good things or of bad, he was too successful. The end could -only be Nemesis or retribution. This feeling is expressed by Herodotus -in the letter in which he makes the king of Egypt advise Polycrates to -break the series by voluntarily giving up the thing that most he cared -for[437]. - -The story goes on to tell how Polycrates was moved by the letter to cast -away in the sea the most precious thing he possessed, a ring made by -Theodorus, how the ring came back to him in the body of a fish served up -at the royal table, and how Amasis “learnt that it is impossible for one -human being to rescue another from the event that is to befall -him[438],” and how accordingly he broke off his friendship with him, -“that when some great and terrible accident overtook Polycrates, he -might not himself be grieved at heart with the thought that it had -befallen a friend[439].” - -In all probability it was not Amasis who broke with Polycrates, but -Polycrates who deserted Amasis when the Persian peril began to look -irresistible[440]. But the dubious historicity of the incident only -heightens its historical value: it shows that so far as the story of the -end of Polycrates is false or inaccurate in point of fact, it has been -altered to suit the requirements of Greek poetic justice and to make the -way that Polycrates lost the throne a fitting requital for the way he -had won and held it. - -This is the story as given by Herodotus[441]. A new Persian satrap had -been appointed at Sardis, who, learning that Polycrates aspired to rule -“Ionia and all the islands,” set a trap for him by pretending to need -his help and promising in return much money. “As far as money goes,” the -promise ran, “thou shalt be ruler of all Hellas.” “When Polycrates heard -this he was glad and willing. And since he greatly desired money, he -first sent Maeandrius the son of Maeandrius to inspect.... But Oroetes, -learning that the inspector was expected, did as follows. He filled -eight chests with stones, except to a very slight depth just round the -top, where on top of the stones he set gold.” For the events that -followed the precise words of Herodotus need not be quoted. Maeandrius -was deceived. Polycrates crossed over to see Oroetes, was seized by him, -and crucified. - -[Sidenote: Value of Herodotus on Polycrates.] - -It is important to remember how good are the sources for the history of -the Samian tyranny. The famous Anacreon lived at Polycrates’ court[442], -and “all his poetry” was “full of references to him[443].” Practically -all of it has perished, but it was accessible to the writers from whom -we draw. Herodotus had conversed with Archias the Spartan, whose -grandfather, also named Archias, had distinguished himself in the -Spartan expedition against Polycrates, and whose exploits on that -occasion had led to a permanent connexion between the Spartan family and -the Samians[444]. - -As mentioned already in discussing the coins stamped with the Samaina, a -son of Polycrates’ brother Syloson was reinstated by the Persians as -tyrant of Samos after the battle of Lade in 494 B.C. He is not heard of -again, and in 480 B.C. a certain Theomestor “became tyrant of Samos, -being set up by the Persians[445].” But even if the son of Syloson died -immediately after his restoration, his reign still brings us down to -times well within the memory of Herodotus’ father. With sources like -these it is highly likely that the main outlines of the facts have been -preserved, and that where they have been improved on or added to, the -changes or additions, whether conscious or unconscious, have been made -to suit the general history of the period. Thus for example we should -expect the facts about Polycrates’ downfall to be in the main correctly -reported: but the story of the letter from Amasis shows that we may -expect touches to be added to emphasize the view that it was a -visitation of Nemesis, an act of retribution on the part of the divine -power. - -The account in Herodotus states that Polycrates fell because he hoped by -means of boundless money to make himself tyrant of all Greece. The -stress laid on money all through the narrative is remarkable[446]. -According to all the laws of Greek psychology, the inference is surely -this: that it was by means of his wealth that he had won and maintained -his power. - - - - - Chapter IV. _Egypt_ - - -[Illustration: Fig. 11. Psamtek I.] - -The sixth century tyrants of Athens and Samos may be regarded with some -probability as rulers who had come to their power by means of their -wealth. Before proceeding to deal with the earlier Greek tyrants, as to -whose antecedents the evidence is necessarily much more meagre and -indecisive, it will be found convenient to turn our attention for a -while to Egypt and Lydia. In both these states we shall find evidence, -some of it very positive, that from the end of the eighth century -onwards the kings were gaining and maintaining their power by means of -their wealth. With both these states the Greeks of the seventh century -were in close touch; from both they learned and borrowed much, since -Egypt and the East had still much to teach them. The history therefore -both of Egypt and Lydia is closely relevant at this period to that of -the Greek world that they adjoined. It gives a context to the -disconnected fragments of evidence that will have to be dealt with in -some of the succeeding chapters, and makes it possible to fit them -together into something resembling a significant whole. - -[Sidenote: Commercial and industrial developments in seventh century - Egypt.] - -Like Greece, Egypt had been through a dark period during the first three -centuries of the first millennium B.C. After about two centuries of -Libyan rulers (XXIInd and XXIIIrd dynasties) whose energies were often -devoted to dealing with rival kings while subject princes spent the -resources of the country in feuds among themselves, Egypt had fallen -during the eighth century under an Ethiopian dynasty which she changed -occasionally for Assyrian rule. But early in the seventh century, Egypt -recovered its material prosperity. By the middle of the next century it -is said to have been more prosperous than ever it was before[447], and -this prosperity is reflected in the law of Amasis (570–526 B.C.) against -unemployment[448] as also in the organization of industry into “more or -less sharply defined classes or guilds[449],” in improved business -methods and mechanical processes. The forms of legal and business -documents became more precise[450]; the mechanical arts of casting in -bronze on a core and of moulding figures and pottery were brought to the -highest pitch of excellence[451]. Inscriptions of this epoch found in -the gold-mining regions prove that the work of the ancient kings was -taken up with renewed ardour[452]. The ports of Egypt were thrown open -to the commerce of all the nations[453]. Strong fleets were maintained -both in the Mediterranean and in the Red Sea[454]. An attempt was made -by Pharaoh Necho (610–594 B.C.) to anticipate the Suez Canal by one -connecting the Nile with the Red Sea[455]; and the exploits of Vasco da -Gama were anticipated by a Phoenician ship that was sent out by this -same Pharaoh Necho and circumnavigated Africa[456]. In these activities -of Necho Sayce[457] sees an attempt to make Egypt the chief trading -country of the world. - -These great developments took place under a single dynasty, the XXVIth, -which came from Sais on one of the western arms of the Delta[458]. -[Sidenote: Psammetichus I (664–610) rose to power] The history of this -dynasty can be traced back at Sais to the eighth century B.C., but the -first of the family to rule all Egypt was Psammetichus (Psamtek), who -reigned from about 664 to 610. Necho the father of this Psammetichus and -grandfather of the Necho mentioned just above had been king or governor -of Sais and Memphis under the Assyrian king Assurbanipal[459]. -Psammetichus was driven into war and foreign politics to free his -country from foreign invaders. The details of his warlike achievements -do not here concern us. What does here concern us is to observe how he -secured the power that enabled him to set about them. - -Early in his career, Psammetichus, so Herodotus informs us[460], had -been one of twelve kings who had each received a twelfth of the country -to reign over[461]. [Sidenote: according to Herodotus by means of Greek -and Carian mercenaries,] One day some bronze-clad Ionian and Carian -freebooters were driven to Egypt by stress of weather. Psammetichus -“made friends with the Ionians and Carians, and by great promises -persuaded them to join him: and having persuaded them he thereupon, in -conjunction with his supporters in Egypt and the mercenaries, put down -the (other eleven) kings, and became master of all Egypt[462].” - -The man who among twelve or more rivals[463] secured the monopoly of -Greek and Carian mercenaries must have been a man of outstanding wealth. -But this is not all our information about him. A fuller account is -preserved in Diodorus[464]: - -[Sidenote: according to Diodorus by trading with Phoenicians and - Greeks.] - - When the twelve had ruled Egypt for fifteen years it befel that the - kingdom passed into the hands of one of them through the following - causes. Psammetichus of Sais, who was one of the twelve kings, and - ruler of the parts beside the sea, used to provide cargoes (φορτία) - for the merchants, and particularly for Phoenicians and Greeks; by - such means he disposed profitably of the products of his own land - and secured a share of the products of the other nations, and - enjoyed not only great wealth (εὐπορίαν) but also friendship with - nations and princes. - -Could it be more plainly stated that Psammetichus owed his throne to his -wealth and his wealth to trade? - -[Sidenote: Value of these statements of Herodotus and Diodorus.] - -The commercial origin of Psamtek’s power can only be questioned by -questioning the value of our authorities. The rest of this chapter will -be devoted to showing that there is no reason for doing this, while -there is much to confirm the passages just quoted. - -Herodotus and Diodorus[465] had both visited Egypt and are among our -best authorities. At first sight indeed they do not seem quite in -agreement. But the story they tell is essentially the same. The -difference is one of emphasis. Herodotus seizes on a single incident and -makes much of the description of the Ionians and Carians as men of -bronze. The point was worth emphasizing; for from the military point of -view the first appearance of the heavy-armed hoplite in Egyptian history -marked an epoch[466]. Diodorus contradicts Herodotus only in stating -that it was not an accident that led Psammetichus to employ these -foreign hoplites[467]. The rest of his narrative only supplements -Herodotus, and the silence of Herodotus is no reason for thinking that -the later historian was not drawing on good and early sources[468]. Even -Herodotus could not incorporate in his history every scrap of knowledge -that he possessed, and for Egypt in the seventh century there may well -have been contemporary documents which were not consulted by Herodotus -but were by Diodorus. Diodorus’ account has in fact been accepted by a -considerable number of modern scholars[469]. [Sidenote: Cp. Strabo on -the Fort of the Milesians] They point out that it agrees with the -statement of Strabo about the Fort of the Milesians[470] that “in the -days of Psammetichus the Milesians sailed with 30 ships and put in at -the Bolbitine mouth, and disembarking built the foundation just -mentioned.” - -There is one difficulty in this passage of Strabo. Psammetichus is -described in it as the contemporary of Cyaxares king of the Medes, who -reigned from 624 to 584 B.C., so that the Psammetichus referred to might -be Psammetichus II (594–589). But Psammetichus in Strabo appears -elsewhere always to mean the first and most important king of that name. -Cyaxares too both from his date and his nationality is an odd person for -a Greek writer to quote in order to indicate the date of an Egyptian -king[471]. Hirschfeld is therefore probably right in rejecting this -parenthesis as a learned but unintelligent gloss[472]. - -The Bolbitine mouth of the Nile is near the great lake and marshes of -Bourlos[473]. Psammetichus I, before he overcame his rivals in Lower -Egypt, is said by Herodotus[474] to have spent a period of exile in the -marshes, and the marshes are shown by the context to have lain near the -sea[475]. Thus quite apart from Diodorus, by simply comparing Herodotus -and Strabo, a case may be made for thinking that the arrival of the -bronze men from Ionia was not the accidental occurrence that Herodotus, -after his way, makes it out to have been, but that it had some close -connexion with the Milesians’ Fort. - -[Sidenote: and Assurbanipal on help sent to Psammetichus by Gyges of - Lydia.] - -That Psammetichus made it his policy to cultivate “friendship with -nations and princes[476]” in Asia Minor is sufficiently shown by the -famous clay cylinder of Assurbanipal, king of Assyria (about 668–626 -B.C.), which states[477] that - - Gyges King of Lydia, a district which is across the sea[478], a - remote place, of which the kings my fathers had not heard speak of - its name ... his forces to the aid of Psammetichus[479] of Egypt, - who had thrown off the yoke of my dominion, he sent. - -The troops sent by Gyges may well have been none other than the Ionian -mercenaries that made Psammetichus master of all Egypt[480]. The -alliance of Psammetichus with Gyges adds to the probability that the -Egyptian was responsible for the foundation and development of the -Milesian settlement in his country, since we know that Gyges had allowed -the Milesians to establish the Hellespontine Abydos in what was then -Lydian territory[481]. - -[Sidenote: History of Psammetichus’ predecessors:] - -If trade and riches raised Psammetichus to supreme power about the year -664 B.C. their influence was probably making itself felt in Egyptian -politics at least some little while before that date. It will greatly -strengthen the credibility of Diodorus on the early history of -Psammetichus if this can be shown to have been in fact the case. - -[Sidenote: (i) Sethon in 701 B.C. based his power on “hucksters and - artizans and trades people.”] - -In 701 B.C. Sennacherib made his famous expedition against Palestine and -Egypt, which were saved only by the plague sent upon the Assyrian host -by the Angel of the Lord[482]. According to the Egyptian version -recorded in Herodotus the king of Egypt at this time was Sethon or -Sethos, priest of Hephaestus. When the priest-king prepared to defend -his country against the Assyrian “he was followed by none of the warrior -class, but by hucksters and artizans and trades people[483].” No king of -the name of Sethon is known either to the Egyptian monuments or to the -Greek and Latin lists of the kings of Egypt: his individuality has been -the subject of much controversy. Later in this chapter reasons will be -given for thinking that he was a prince of the same city and probably of -the same house as Psamtek. The point to be emphasized here is the -appearance just at this period of a Pharaoh who rests his power on the -support of the mercantile and industrial classes. - -[Sidenote: (ii) King Bocchoris (d. 715 B.C.) and his commercial - legislation.] - -Shortly before the days of Sethon another Egyptian king had won great -fame by his recognition of the commercial tendencies of his age. This -was Bocchoris the lawgiver, the solitary representative of the XXIVth -dynasty, who appears for a time to have been recognized as king of Egypt -until in 715 B.C. he was taken and burnt or flayed alive by his -successor Sabacon, the first king of the Ethiopian (XXVth) dynasty[484]. -Diodorus says that the laws concerning contracts were attributed to -Bocchoris and that he brought more precision into the matter of -contracts. These statements are illustrated in a remarkable way by -actual business documents that have come down to us from that time[485]. - -A faience vase (fig. 12) with Egyptian scenes and the name of Bocchoris -has been found in the Etruscan city of Tarquinii (Corneto)[486]. It is -held by Maspero and v. Bissing to be of pure Egyptian workmanship[487]. -Before its discovery the only evidence that Bocchoris had dealings with -Europe was a reference in Plutarch[488] which makes Bocchoris the judge -in a case involving a Greek hetaera named Thonis. The Plutarch passage -is doubtful evidence, but the Corneto vase suggests that already in the -reign of Bocchoris the Egyptians and perhaps the king himself already -had dealings with the trading nations of the North. This would fit well -with the fact that Bocchoris was probably the predecessor of a king -whose following consisted of hucksters and artizans and trades people. -Bocchoris himself is said by Diodorus to have been reputed the most -money-loving of men[489]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 12. Vase with cartouche of Bocchoris found at -Tarquinii.] - -[Sidenote: (iii) Tafnekht, father of Bocchoris, resisted the Ethiopians - thanks apparently to his command of the sea.] - -Bocchoris’ father Tafnekht[490], the first of the Saite princes (749–721 -B.C.), is not known to have had any commercial interests or connexions. -He is best remembered for his struggle against Pianchi, the first -Ethiopian ruler to claim the throne of the Pharaohs. Of this struggle we -have Pianchi’s own version, preserved in the famous Pianchi stele. While -Tafnekht’s partizans were holding Memphis against the Ethiopians we hear -of the employment of artizans and master masons as soldiers[491]. The -force however is stated to have been small, and it is not quite certain -which side it was fighting on. Tafnekht, when the struggle went against -him, retired to “the islands of the sea,” from whence he was able to -negotiate with Pianchi in complete safety. Tafnekht himself described -the situation not without tact in a letter to Pianchi: “To whatsoever -city thou hast turned thy face, thou hast not found thy servant there, -until I reached the islands of the sea, trembling before thy might, and -saying ‘his flame is hostile to me.’” Eventually he submitted to the -Ethiopians, but the submission seems to have been little more than -nominal. Pianchi after receiving it is no more heard of in the Delta, -and Tafnekht, to judge from the position held after him by his son -Bocchoris, must have regained considerable power. - -This may have had its base in naval supremacy. In the ancient list of -thalassocrats, or states that successively ruled the waves, preserved to -us by Syncellus, Eusebius and Jerome, the thalassocracy of Egypt falls -at about this period. The only list that gives a precise date is that of -Jerome, who puts it between 783 and 748 B.C. But the lists give the -duration of each thalassocracy as well as absolute dates, and, as -pointed out by J. L. Myres, if, instead of following the dates in years -from Abraham, we calculate from the duration of the various -thalassocracies, working backward from the period of the Persian wars, -then the end of the Egyptian supremacy falls not in 748 but in 725[492]. -This dating makes Tafnekht a thalassocrat[493], and explains how he was -able to stand up against Ethiopia and the comparatively little damage -that he sustained in spite of his military failures. In 715 we find -another Ethiopian invading the Delta. The new prince of Sais, Bocchoris, -presumably had no impregnable naval base. He was caught by the Ethiopian -Sabacon and burnt or flayed alive[494]. It is only when Psamtek formed -alliances with the naval power that had replaced Egypt that the Saite -princes fully regained the throne of the Pharaohs. This time their power -had a sounder financial basis. It lasted for nearly a century and a -half, and was then suddenly destroyed at its zenith by irresistible -forces from without. On the reckoning which ends Egyptian naval -supremacy in 725 B.C. the command of the sea when Psamtek was building -up his power was in the hands of the Carians. It is precisely the -Carians, along with the Milesians (who on the same reckoning were -thalassocrats from 725 to 707 B.C.), who are said by all our ancient -authorities to have been the basis of Psamtek’s power[495]. - -If the king who ruled Egypt in 700 B.C. based his power on the trading -and industrial classes, and a king who reigned twenty years earlier drew -up the first commercial code in Egypt, while under the predecessor of -this latter king Egypt had been supreme at sea, then by 670 B.C. -conditions may well have been favourable for the commercial activities -of Prince Psammetichus as described by Diodorus. [Sidenote: Tafnekht and -probably Bocchoris and Sethon were (not kings of all Egypt but) princes -of Sais, the city of Psammetichus, and belonged possibly to the same -family as Psammetichus.] But still more will this have been so if, as -seems likely, both Sethon and Bocchoris were Saite princes of the same -house as Psammetichus himself. The evidence is weak and inconclusive and -for that reason difficult to summarize shortly. But the conclusions that -it seems to point to are sufficiently important to make the attempt -worth while. - -One point seems fairly certain. Sethon was not the name of the conqueror -of the Assyrians. Far more probably it was his title, a graecized form -of the priestly title stm, stne, setmi, or satni[496]. If his actual -name is still doubtful, it is not for lack of suggestions. Sethon has -been identified with (_a_) Khamois son of Ramses II[497], (_b_) Shabaka, -first king of the Ethiopian dynasty[498], (_c_) Shabataka, successor of -Shabaka[499], (_d_) Taharqa, the Biblical Tirhaka[500]. - -These identifications are all untenable, the first two on account of -their dates, the rest because they make Sethon an Ethiopian. The warrior -class that refused to support Sethon was Ethiopian in sympathy and not -likely to desert an Ethiopian[501]. The Sethon story glorifies the god -Ptah (Hephaestus) of Memphis whereas the Ethiopian dynasty was devoted -to Amon of Thebes[502]. Griffith indeed suggests that Taharqa, who -became king of Ethiopia and Egypt after 700 B.C., may at the time of -Sennacherib’s defeat have represented the reigning king Shabataka in -Lower Egypt, possibly with the title of priest of Ptah at Memphis[503]. -But there is no evidence for this having been so, and the picture of -Taharqa as a king with no real soldiers at his back is not easily -explained. On the contrary, as pointed out long ago by Lepsius[504], the -Biblical account[505] appears to differentiate Pharaoh king of Egypt, -whom it calls a broken reed, and Tirhaka king of Ethiopia. Similarly the -Assyrian cylinders distinguish the kings of Egypt from the king of -Miluhhi = Meroe = Ethiopia[506]. The kings of Egypt who are thus -referred to in the plural[507] are plainly the rulers who at the period -divided among themselves the lands of the Delta. The evidence all points -to the conclusion that Sethon was one of these Delta chiefs, and -presumably one of the most important of them, who acknowledged when -forced to the suzerainty of Ethiopia or Assyria as the case might be, -but did his best to keep clear of both great powers. - -It is not improbable that Sethon belonged to the same family as -Psammetichus, or at any rate that he was one of his predecessors on the -throne of Sais. As starting-point for identifying him we have two facts. -He was high priest of Ptah and he was alive in 701 B.C. A generation -earlier the title Sem of Ptah was borne by Tafnekht, the chief of Sais -from about 749 to 721 B.C.[508] who led the Delta in its struggle -against the Ethiopian Pianchi[509]. A generation after Sethon the -Assyrian cylinders[510] describe Necho I (672–664 B.C.) the father of -Psammetichus I as king not only of Sais but also of Memphis, the home of -the Sethon tradition. A whole line of Saite rulers may be traced from -Tafnekht onwards to Psammetichus I[511]. All of these kings seem to have -been something more than mere local rulers. The Pianchi stele makes it -plain that Tafnekht aimed at becoming king at least of the whole of -Lower Egypt. Bocchoris, the solitary king of the XXIVth dynasty, has -been discussed already. Stephinates, Nechepsus, and Necho I appear in -Africanus[512] as the first three kings of dynasty XXVI, Psammetichus I -coming fourth on the list. This statement is not discredited by the fact -that other writers[513] begin the dynasty with Psammetichus, while -Eusebius[514] puts Stephinates second, after Ammeris the Ethiopian. The -three versions need not be mutually exclusive. Psammetichus was -unquestionably the first of the Saites to win for his house the -undisputed kingship of all Egypt. Hence the position generally assigned -to him. In another way too he represented a new departure dynastically. -He appears to have had family connexions with Ethiopia, and to have -consistently aimed at an entente with the Ethiopian royal house[515], -who may have originally left him a free hand in the Delta from the -desire to put a buffer state between Ethiopia and Assyria. Ammeris -appears to be a Greek form of (Ta) Nut-Amen, Rud-Amen, or Amen-Rud, as -the last of the Ethiopian kings is variously called[516]. His appearance -at the head of the XXVIth dynasty is a record of its Ethiopian -connexions at this time[517]. Africanus on the other hand, following -Manetho, who was himself an Egyptian, records Psamtek’s ancestry in the -direct line, and regards them, rather than any Ethiopian or Assyrian -conquerors, as the lawful kings of the whole country[518]. - -We are now in a better position for trying to identify the Sethon of -Herodotus. This Saite dynasty was probably represented at the time of -Sennacherib’s invasion by Stephinates. In Africanus his reign as first -king of the XXVIth dynasty begins later, about 685 B.C. But this leaves -a gap of 30 years with no recorded rulers of Sais and Memphis. Petrie’s -explanation of this hiatus may be right. He thinks that Stephinates was -probably son and successor of Bocchoris, but that after Bocchoris had -been crushed and burnt by the Ethiopians in 715 B.C. the Saite power -remained for some time a very broken reed. It is therefore not unlikely -that the Stephinates of Manetho is the Sethon of Herodotus. No prince of -the name appears on Egyptian monuments, but it has been plausibly -suggested by Petrie[519] that Stephinates is another Tafnekht with -perhaps a sigma carried over by a Greek copyist from some word before -his name. May we not guess what this word was? The first Tafnekht styled -himself Sem of Ptah. The story of Satni Khamois[520] shows that the -title might be prefixed to the personal name. May not the strange form -Stephinates be simply a Greek corruption of Satni Tafnekht or, as the -name is sometimes transcribed, Tefnakhte[521]? - -A family connexion between Bocchoris and the later Saites is harder to -establish. In support of it there are these facts: a Samtavi Tafnekht -appears among the officials of Psamtek I; and, as the name Tafnekht was -borne by the father and predecessor of Bocchoris[522], this Samtavi -Tafnekht has been recognized by Petrie[523] as “doubtless a brother or -cousin of the king.” The name Bakenranf itself is borne by another of -Psamtek’s officials[524], who may well be the Bocchoris son of Neochabis -(Nekauba) mentioned by Athenaeus[525], in which case he would have been -an uncle of the reigning king[526]. A direct connexion between the -XXIVth and XXVIth dynasties has indeed been often suspected[527]. They -may stand to one another much as the English Lancastrians to the Tudors, -separated by a period of eclipse and by the alliance with their rivals -that was made in each case at the period of the restoration[528]. - -[Sidenote: Popular stories of Satni Khamois, which probably reflect the - atmosphere of Sais under Sethon,] - -It was probably during this period of eclipse that two popular stories -of an earlier date were revised and received the shape in which they -have come down to us[529], and in which also they very possibly have a -bearing on the history of the Herodotean Sethon. Their hero is Satni -Khamois, son of Ramses II, who protects the king his father not by force -of arms but by learning and magic. - -Satni and Sethon both save their country where the military had failed. -“The military chieftains of the chief ones of Egypt were standing before -him (Pharaoh Usimares) each one according to his rank at court” when the -Ethiopian came and threatened to “report the inferiority of Egypt in his -country, the land of the Negroes.” And just as the captains and the -courtiers proved helpless against the Assyrians in the days of Sethon, -so did they against the Ethiopians in the days of Satni. This is the -connecting link. The value of the Satni story for the history of Sethon -is that it probably gives the atmosphere of the Sethon period, and that -being so it helps to show that Sethon was already pursuing in many ways -the Saite policy. Griffith for instance has observed that Satni is not -presented in a very heroic light. But neither did any of the later -Saites adopt the heroic pose. Nothing could be less like the grand -monarque than Psamtek as pictured on a relief in the British Museum -(above fig. 11)[530] or Amasis as pictured in the pages of -Herodotus[531]. [Sidenote: recall in tone those told of Amasis, the last -great Saite pharaoh.] The same picture of Amasis is presented to us by -the popular Egyptian stories. “Is it possible,” his courtiers ask, “that -if it happens to the king to be drunk more than any man in the world, no -man in the world can approach the king for business[532]?” - -Amasis, who was virtually the last of the Saites, is said to have been a -man of the people[533]. In the days of Sethon (Satni Tafnekhte), who -perhaps heads the dynasty, a story of the Satni Khamois cycle told how -that royal prince had personally visited the kingdom of the dead to -learn the lesson of Dives and Lazarus[534]. - -[Sidenote: Conclusions as to the early history of the Saite dynasty.] - -This concludes our examination of the history of the early Saites. It -points to a consistent policy carried out with a remarkable combination -of perseverance and versatility by a succession of rulers who may have -been all of a single family and who certainly inherited in unbroken -succession the same aims and the same essential method of attaining -them, which was marked out for them by the place and the age they lived -in. The Saite power grew to be supreme in Egypt while Ethiopians and -Assyrians were contending for the land. From force of circumstances Sais -had to be a military power. But the city owed its victory over its -rivals between 721 and 670 B.C. first and foremost to the fact that it -lay off the main track of war. As always when Egypt is involved in a -great war it is the Eastern frontier that faces the main enemy. Sais was -not always able to remain neutral, but lying right away in the West it -was able at least to preserve and even to develop its commerce. It -seized its opportunity and did so. The commercial code of Bocchoris, the -hucksters and artizans and tradespeople of Sethon, and the cargoes of -Psammetichus mark three great stages in the development, at the end of -which, to quote the words of Maspero, “the valley of the Nile becomes a -vast workshop, where work was carried on with unparalleled -activity[535].” - -All these considerations lend a general probability to the narrative of -Diodorus. They do not however specially confirm his statements about -Psamtek’s trading with the Greeks. [Sidenote: Sais and Greece: -foundation of Naukratis:] Greek commerce in Egypt in the days of the -Saites is bound up with the name of Naukratis. “In the days of old,” -says Herodotus[536], “Naukratis was the only emporium in Egypt. There -was none other.” This is an overstatement the origin of which will be -seen when we come to deal with Amasis, the last but one of the Saite -Pharaohs. But it implies that Naukratis eclipsed in importance all the -other Greek trading stations in the country. It concerns us therefore to -enquire what was the position of Naukratis in the days of Psammetichus. -The question has been much disputed, especially since the eighties of -the last century, when the site was excavated by Petrie and Ernest -Gardner, and an account of the city was published by Petrie[537] based -on the literary sources and the results of the dig. As however some of -the excavators’ archaeological conclusions have been challenged in many -quarters, and as too some important archaeological evidence has only -recently come to light, it may be worth while to summarise briefly the -whole body of available material. - -[Sidenote: (_a_) literary evidence;] - -S. Jerome under the date Olymp. VII 4 (= 749 B.C.) says “the Milesians -held the sea for eighteen years and built in Egypt the city of -Naukratis[538].” This statement agrees with Stephanus Byzantinus[539] -who calls Naukratis “a city of Egypt from the Milesians who were at that -time supreme at sea.” Jerome and Stephanus are in harmony with -Polycharmus[540] who mentions a certain Herostratos as living at -Naukratis and trading there and making long voyages in the XXIIIrd -Olymp. (688 B.C.). But there are other writers who put the foundation -later. Strabo, in the passage already referred to[541], after describing -the foundation of the Milesians’ Fort in the days of Psammetichus, -continues: “and eventually they sailed up to the Saite nome and after -defeating Inaros in a naval engagement they founded the city of -Naukratis.” Lastly we have Herodotus[542] stating that King Amasis -(570–526 B.C.) “gave the city of Naukratis for Greeks who came to Egypt -to dwell in,” an assertion that taken by itself might mean that -Naukratis was founded in or after 570 B.C.[543]. - -One further witness remains to be cited. Sappho wrote a poem reproaching -her brother Charaxos for his devotion to a Naukratite hetaera named -Doriche, with whom he had fallen in love when bringing Lesbian wine to -Naukratis by way of trade[544]. Among the papyri discovered by Grenfell -and Hunt at Oxyrhynchus is a fragment containing sixteen mutilated -Sapphic lines that almost certainly form part of this very poem[545]. -This means that Naukratis had already grown to be a pleasure city in the -days of Sappho. Unfortunately her dates are not absolutely certain. A -recent heresy brought her down to the reign of Amasis, but her floruit -is generally given as the end of the seventh century, and there seem to -be no sufficient reasons for not accepting that date. - -Such is the literary evidence. No single item of it is decisive for an -early occupation. Those which are definite can be questioned on point of -fact. Sappho, whose evidence alone cannot be so questioned, may -conceivably have written after 570. Combined however they make it -probable that Naukratis rose to importance before the days of Amasis, -and that Herodotus either confused the foundation of the city with that -of the Hellenium[546] or else did not intend his words “gave the city -for Greeks who came to Egypt to dwell in” to imply that the Milesians -were not there in force before the granting of this concession[547]. -Nevertheless, if we were limited to these literary sources, we could not -be certain that where Diodorus seems to supplement his predecessors he -was not merely adding details that they appear to imply. That is in fact -the view of his narrative that some modern scholars apparently -hold[548]. Even if this were so, his additions would still have a -certain value. If Diodorus, writing in the first century B.C., read -between the lines of Herodotus the same unstated implications that have -been read there in recent times, the coincidence points to the -probability that this reading is not altogether wrong[549]. - -[Sidenote: (_b_) archaeological evidence:] - -That is as far as the texts take us. For further light we must look to -archaeology. The new light began by increasing the perplexity. Petrie -and Gardner both claimed that their excavations at Naukratis proved that -it had been an important Greek city from the middle of the seventh -century. But their main arguments were before long shown to be mistaken, -and somewhat naturally it began to be assumed that they must be wrong in -their conclusions. - -[Sidenote: (i) excavations of Petrie, who dated Naukratis from the time - of Psammetichus I;] - -Petrie[550] based his arguments on the following observations. In the -South part of the town he came across what he described as a scarab -factory. There were numerous scarabs of Psamtek I, some of Psamtek II, -and some that are probably of Apries; but none of Amasis. This seems to -date the factory from well before 610 till after 589. Two feet beneath -the factory was a burnt stratum of plain potsherds which must take us -back a good way further, to at least 650 B.C. and probably earlier. The -scarabs are imitation Egyptian and are taken by Petrie to be Greek. -Further South, but also within the area of the burnt stratum, there is a -large enclosure which he describes as surrounded by a strong brick wall. -This he identified with the Hellenium, where Herodotus states that nine -Greek cities had quarters assigned to them by Amasis. The dimensions of -the bricks point to the early Saite period. - -[Sidenote: (ii) further excavations by Hogarth invalidated Petrie’s - arguments;] - -But in 1899 and 1903 further work was done at Naukratis by Hogarth which -led him to the following conclusions. Petrie’s Hellenium is wrongly -identified: it is not a walled enclosure: what Petrie took for walls is -simply débris of houses[551]. The real Hellenium is to be found in what -Petrie called the North Temenos[552]. All Petrie’s evidence for a -seventh century Naukratis comes from his scarab factory and his “Great -Temenos,” both in the South part of the town, which is marked off by the -occurrence there of the burnt stratum already referred to, and is shown -by the finds to have been the Egyptian quarter of the town[553]. The -Greeks would naturally have separate quarters and occupy the Northern -seaward end of the town[554]. The scarabs, it is maintained, may well be -of Phoenician make[555]. - -[Sidenote: (iii) arguments from the vase inscriptions shown to be - indecisive.] - -The early arrival of the Greeks in Naukratis has been thought by Ernest -Gardner to be confirmed by the numerous inscriptions, some painted but -most (about 700) incised, on the pottery from the site[556]. His -arguments were criticized by Hirschfeld and Kirchhoff[557] and have -received little support[558]. In some of them the lettering appears very -crude and primitive; but this may be due simply to the fact that they -are scratched by hasty and unskilled hands. They are not more archaic in -appearance than some of the graffiti on vases from Rhitsona (Mykalessos) -in Boeotia, of which the earliest must be dated in the middle of the -sixth century, while others are contemporary with the finely written -signatures of Teisias, who flourished at the end of the sixth -century[559]. Gardner is certainly wrong in thinking that the lettering -of any of his inscriptions proves a seventh century date. But on the -other hand, as well remarked by Edgar[560], all that his critics have -proved is that none of the inscriptions are _necessarily_ so early. It -by no means follows that they are necessarily not. But even supposing -that the Naukratite graffiti are all sixth century, it does not follow -that Greek Naukratis was of no importance till then. Both Gardner and -his critics and likewise Mallet[561] discuss the inscriptions with too -little reference to the particular sherds on which they are inscribed. -Thirty years ago, when the study of archaic Greek pottery was still in -its infancy, this was perhaps inevitable. But in the present state of -our knowledge the style of the potsherds would be a natural -starting-point for dating the graffiti. Unfortunately the information on -this point given by Gardner is inadequate, and the Naukratite finds have -been so dispersed, that the task of collating sherds and graffiti must -now wait for someone who can devote to it his undivided time and -attention[562]. - -Under these circumstances the best that can be done is to turn to some -more recently excavated site. At Rhitsona the graffiti are nothing like -so numerous as at Naukratis. Still they are numerous enough to justify -certain observations. Some 50 examples have been found[563]. All of them -are on vases of the sixth century. Not one occurs on the numerous vases -of the seventh century also found on the site[564]. Plainly in Boeotia -the fashion of scratching inscriptions on pottery only became -prevalent[565] in the sixth century. By itself therefore the absence of -seventh century Greek graffiti from Naukratis would no more prove the -absence of seventh century Greek worshippers[566] than the corresponding -absence from Rhitsona proves the absence of seventh century graves. At -the other end of the period Edgar has already noticed that “the practice -of dedicating vases in the temples appears to have almost died out at -Naukratis before the middle of the fifth century[567].” Edgar makes this -remark at the end of his discussion of the inscriptions found in 1899. -He is apparently thinking of inscribed dedications. Elsewhere, -discussing the pottery discovered during the same dig, he mentions late -red figure (_i.e._ about 450 B.C. onwards) as plentiful and black glazed -pottery with stamped ornaments inside as particularly common. This -latter ware dates from about the middle of the fifth century, but its -main vogue is later still[568]. Unfortunately not a sherd of this latter -ware from Naukratis has been published, and not a word is said as to its -distribution over the site. It was customarily offered to the dead at -Rhitsona. It may well have been offered to the gods at Naukratis[569]. -There is of course no need to assume that the fashion of inscribing -vases came in and went out simultaneously in Naukratis and Mykalessos. -Boeotia was often behind the times, the Ionians of the seventh and sixth -centuries generally ahead of them. But the Boeotian evidence shows how -cautiously the Naukratite graffiti must be used for determining the date -of the first Greek settlement. - -[Sidenote: (iv) The absence of proto-Corinthian pottery proves little.] - -Nor is there anything against a seventh century date in the absence of -proto-Corinthian pottery[570], which is so prevalent on the mainland in -seventh century Greece. Edgar indeed[571] infers from this absence that -the fabric must have been obsolete by the time the Greeks came to -Naukratis. This argument cannot be maintained. Kinch notices that there -is none of this ware in a chapel that he excavated at Vroulia in Rhodes -and in which he found a good deal of seventh century Greek pottery[572]. -Within the proto-Corinthian sphere of influence the style lasted on side -by side with its successors all through the sixth century[573]. This -late proto-Corinthian ware is equally conspicuous by its absence from -Naukratis. To push Edgar’s argument to its logical conclusion we should -have to doubt the existence of Naukratis in the days of Amasis -himself[574]. Of the twelve Greek cities that had quarters in Naukratis -in the days of Amasis only one, Aegina, belonged to European Greece. For -the little known history of this Aeginetan settlement the absence of -proto-Corinthian may be of significance. Beyond that it is not. - -So far then all that has been proved is that both Petrie and Gardner -fixed partly on the wrong material for deciding whether Naukratis was a -Greek city of importance in the days of Psammetichus I. And even here on -one important point the criticism of them has been shown to be ill -founded. Edgar doubted the Greek character of the scarab factory: but -not only are the types on some of the scarabs of Greek origin, but a -faience fragment from the site shows fragments of a Greek inscription -placed on it before the glazing of the vase[575], a fact that can hardly -be explained except by assuming a Greek maker. - -A great advance was made by Prinz, whose monograph _Funde aus Naukratis_ -marked the first adequate treatment of the pottery. The earlier -controversies about the date of Naukratis had made little appeal to the -potsherds that from their mere numbers offer the most valuable evidence -that has been yielded by the site. [Sidenote: (v) Positive evidence for -an early foundation comes from the pottery actually found, viz.:] Edgar -indeed observed in 1905[576] that - - it seems very doubtful whether all the fragments from the Naukratite - temples can be as late as 570. There is at least a probability that - some of the temples, especially that of the Milesian Apollo, date - from the earlier [_i.e._ Hogarth’s Egyptian] days of the town. - -But apparently the question was still regarded as “primarily a question -of historical criticism[577].” Since Prinz’s monograph appeared the -pottery has taken the first place in the discussion, and it has now -finally confirmed the earlier dating. - -[Sidenote: Milesian (?) (fig. 13),] - -Much of the pottery belongs to the well-marked style known generally as -Rhodian or Milesian[578] (fig. 13) which had its chief vogue in the -seventh century and the first part of the sixth[579]. The crucial point -however for our immediate enquiry is to know how long the style may have -survived. When Prinz states[580] that it is hard to imagine the style -surviving as a competitor of the developed black figure (_i.e._ sixth -century) style he is treading on dangerous ground. The earlier ware has -a charm of its own. The excavations at Rhitsona show that, in Greece -Proper at any rate, old styles of pottery often lasted long after a new -style had been introduced, and that a white ground ware with no human -figures[581] maintained itself all through the sixth century. Against -any such survival of the fabrics under discussion there is however the -fact that at Berezan in South Russia it does not occur with Attic black -figure of the style that spread all over the Greek world by the middle -of the sixth century[582]. At Naukratis itself it is said not to have -been found in the Hellenium erected very soon after 570 B.C., a fact -which points to its vogue having ended by about that date[583]. On the -other hand fragments, mainly of a later phase, have been found in Samos -in a cemetery that can hardly go back beyond the middle of the sixth -century[584]. The Samian material is however scanty[585] and hardly -demands any modification of the conclusions suggested by the rest of the -evidence. - -[Illustration: Fig. 13. Rhodian or (?) Milesian vase found at -Naukratis.] - -Though generally known as Rhodian this ware was probably made at -Miletus[586]. It is the dominant ware in archaic Miletus[587] and has -been found all over the Milesian sphere of influence, including the East -coast of the Aegean, Rhodes, Rheneia, the Black Sea, and to some extent -Sicily and Italy (_via_ Sybaris?). It has seldom been found outside it, -scarcely any being recorded from Greece Proper. The occurrence at -Naukratis in large quantities of what is probably seventh century -Milesian pottery is distinctly in favour of a Milesian occupation in the -reign of Psammetichus[588]. - -[Sidenote: Fikellura (Samian?) (fig. 14),] - -Another fabric of the end of the seventh century and beginning of the -sixth that is well represented at Naukratis is the so-called -Fikellura[589]. This ware is similar to the later phases of the -“Milesian” that show full silhouettes, incisions, and a comparative -absence of fill ornament. Its distinguishing mark is the zone of -crescent-shaped ornament that never appears in the “Milesian” style. Its -date is sufficiently established by its occurrence at Daphnae[590], -which had its Greek garrison removed by Amasis almost certainly in -connexion with his concentration of Greeks in Naukratis[591]. This ware -is assigned by Boehlau to Samos[592], but Perrot[593] well observes how -rash it is to draw wide general conclusions from the meagre finds -published in Boehlau’s _Aus ionischen und italischen Nekropolen_. - -[Sidenote: Corinthian (figs. 22, 34),] - -Corinthian sherds are also fairly frequent at Naukratis[594]. This ware -prevailed in the seventh century and early sixth and survived till the -end of the sixth century in certain stereotyped forms. Some of the -examples from Naukratis appear to be fairly early; _e.g._ the aryballi -with four warriors[595] belong to a type that was very prevalent about -600 B.C. but had died out before Black Figure came in[596]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 14. Fikellura or (?) Samian vase found at Daphnae -(Defenneh).] - -[Sidenote: Attic (fig. 41)] - -The earliest examples of Attic pottery from Naukratis[597] likewise go -back to the very beginning of the sixth century. They belong to a series -of amphorae called Netos amphorae from the name of a centaur painted on -one of them in Attic lettering. Their general archaic appearance and the -survival of the fill ornament show that they must be considerably -earlier than the François vase or the earliest Panathenaic amphorae, -which date from about 565 B.C. Prinz puts them back to about 600. - -[Sidenote: and Naukratite (fig. 15),] - -For dating the Greek settlement at Naukratis this probably imported ware -is of less importance than a very distinctive style of painted -pottery[598] that was found there in far larger quantities than any of -the fabrics just mentioned, and was almost certainly made by Greeks in -Naukratis itself[599]. - -For the dating of this pottery Naukratis offered no certain data. The -decisive evidence is derived from Naukratite vases recently found in -three other sites, Vroulia in Rhodes, Rhitsona (Mykalessos) in Boeotia, -and Berezan in South Russia. Vroulia was excavated by Kinch in 1907 and -1908. The finds were fully and sumptuously published in 1914. They led -him to believe that the site was occupied only from the first third of -the seventh century B.C. to about 570–560[600]. Among them were -fragments of nine Naukratite cups, none of them particularly early -examples of the style, and of one vase in what seems to be a late -development from it. The decoration of the Vroulia Naukratite seems -moreover to correspond to one of the earlier phases of the Milesian (?) -pottery from the same site. - -The Vroulia evidence is confirmed by that of the Naukratite chalice -(fig. 15) unearthed at Rhitsona just at the time when Vroulia was being -excavated by Kinch. The vase, which is almost complete, belongs to a -late phase of the style[601]. Fill ornaments have almost disappeared. -Red and incisions are abundantly used for details. The vase was found -with some hundreds of others in a single interment grave that cannot be -dated much after 550 and maybe a little before that date[602]. A -Naukratite vase cannot have been made to order for a Boeotian funeral. -The Rhitsona chalice by itself renders it practically certain that the -making of Naukratite ware at Naukratis began long before the accession -of Amasis. - -Finally at Berezan on the Black Sea the Russian excavators report that -in 1909 Naukratite pottery was found along with Rhodian (= Milesian), -Fikellura and Clazomenae wares in the lowest stratum of the excavations, -which they date seventh to sixth century, whereas Attic pottery of the -middle of the sixth century (especially Kleinmeister kylikes) first -appears in a higher stratum (sixth to fifth century B.C.)[603]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 15. Naukratite vase found at Rhitsona in Boeotia.] - -[Sidenote: all pointing to a foundation in the seventh century.] - -In the face of all this evidence it becomes highly probable that -Naukratite pottery began to be made before the end of the seventh -century[604]. It is against all likelihood to suppose that the first -thing the Greek settlement at Naukratis did was to start a large -pottery, which proceeded at once to turn out a highly original kind of -ware. And in point of fact we have seen that the finds include a good -quantity of an earlier style of pottery, that takes us back well into -the reign of Psamtek. We have seen too that this pottery, which is one -of the starting-points of the Naukratite style, is probably Milesian. - -[Sidenote: Evidence as to Naukratis based on differences observed in - different parts of the site, viz. (α) the temenos of the - Milesians,] - -A further proof of early Milesian influence at Naukratis remains to be -mentioned. At one spot in the excavations literally hundreds of vases -were found with incised dedications to Apollo[605]. Some ten of these -speak of the Milesian Apollo, the god to whom Necho the son of -Psammetichus made an offering after the victory over Josiah at -Megiddo[606]. The Milesian sherds that it is natural to put into the -seventh century come largely from this spot. Herodotus tells us that the -Milesians did not have quarters in the Hellenium but occupied a separate -temenos. The spot where these sherds and inscriptions were found is -unquestionably the site of this temenos. As to why the Milesians thus -kept apart there can be little doubt that Petrie gives the right -explanation. It means that they were there before the cities that shared -the Hellenium[607]. The finds show that their occupation was already on -a considerable scale before the end of the seventh century. - -[Sidenote: (β) the temenos of the Samians,] - -Two other cities had separate temene, namely Samos and Aegina[608]. The -Samian has been identified by a find of sherds dedicated to the Samian -goddess Hera. But there is from this temenos no mass of pottery that -takes us back into the first half of the sixth century or the second of -the seventh, as there is from the Milesian. “Fikellura” ware that is -very possibly Samian[609] and that may date from about 600 B.C. was -indeed found, but not in quantities like the Milesian[610]. The scanty -finds may be due to Arab farmers who had removed much earth from the -Samian temenos before the excavations began[611]. But the finds as we -have them, with inadequate accounts of the exact spots they come from, -hardly make it likely that the Samian temenos was an early -establishment[612]. True Herodotus[613] tells the tale of a Samian ship -that set sail for Egypt between 643 and 640 B.C. But it got to Spain by -mistake, a fact which suggests an imperfect knowledge of the route it -wished to take. A Samian nymph appears in a fragment of the “Foundation -of Naukratis” of Apollonius Rhodius[614]. But we only know that she once -went to a festival at Miletus and was there carried off by Apollo. - -[Sidenote: (γ) the temenos of the Aeginetans,] - -Of the Aeginetan temenos no trace has been found. It might be suggested -that the Aeginetans had not the habit of inscribing their dedications. -But the absence of proto-Corinthian finds favours the view that this -temenos was not unearthed. It is idle therefore to speculate on its date -and importance[615]. - -In any case we have good reason for interpreting the written texts in -the sense that the Milesians’ Fort made way for the Greek Naukratis -during the reign of Psammetichus. This is historically important. The -Milesians’ Fort may have been a fortified trading station[616]: but it -never had the commercial importance of Naukratis. If, as we have just -seen good evidence for believing, Greek Naukratis was already a -considerable place before Psamtek’s death and owed the fact to Psamtek -himself, then there is an increased probability that Diodorus is right -when he says that Psamtek owed his throne to commercial dealings with -traders from across the sea. - -[Sidenote: (δ) the Egyptian quarter, with its early temple of Aphrodite] - -There are two further points in which the Naukratis excavations bear out -the texts that support this view. Hogarth has shown that South Naukratis -was the Egyptian quarter, and that it goes back probably to before King -Psamtek’s reign. We have seen too that as early as 688 B.C. the Greek -merchant Herostratos is said to have made offerings at Naukratis in the -temple of Aphrodite. There is only one spot at Naukratis that compares -with the Milesian temenos for early Greek finds, and that spot is marked -by a long series of dedications to Aphrodite[617] incised or sometimes -painted on the pottery, which includes Milesian, Naukratite, Ionian buff -and black, and other seventh and sixth century wares. The site of this -temenos has a significance that seems to have been overlooked. It lies -just on the borders[618] of the black stratum area that appears to mark -the limits of the original Egyptian town. When excavations were resumed -in 1899 there was discovered in the North part of the town a second -Aphrodite shrine forming a sort of side chapel to the real -Hellenium[619]. The earliest finds from this Northern Aphrodite shrine -date from the earlier part of the fifth century[620]. May not the -position of the earlier and more southerly shrine be due to the fact -that it was founded before the occupants of the Milesians’ Fort had -moved to Naukratis and established a Greek quarter there? In other -words, may we not see in it a confirmation of Polycharmus[621] when he -speaks of a Greek as offering an image of Aphrodite in a temple of that -goddess at Naukratis in 688 B.C.? The fact that the Aphrodite site was -not burnt is no proof that it did not form part of the earliest -settlement. The men from the Milesians’ Fort who defeated Inaros may -well have spared the Greek sanctuary when they burnt the rest. - -[Sidenote: and the statuettes of the goddess found on the temple site.] - -The voyage of Herostratos was held in remembrance at Naukratis because -of a statuette of Aphrodite that he dedicated in her temple as a -thank-offering for having saved him during a storm. The statuette was a -span long and of archaic workmanship, and had been bought by him at -Paphos during the voyage. When the storm arose the people on board had -betaken themselves to this eikon and prayed it to save them. The goddess -heard their prayers and gave them a sign by suddenly filling the ship -with a most fragrant perfume. The story is discussed by Gardner[622] in -his chapter on the statuettes from the temenos of Aphrodite, which -include a number that may represent the Paphian goddess. But he makes no -reference to the statuette that probably has the closest bearing on the -tale. The upper half is of the normal draped female type, but the lower -shows simply the form of an alabastron. The whole is a perfume -vase[623]. This particular example (fig. 16) cannot be earlier than the -end of the sixth century. The type however is shown both by the style -and the context of other examples to go back to the seventh century, and -probably to the earlier part of it. The home of the type is thought by -Poulsen[624] to be Cyprus. An object that combined the functions of an -eikon and a smelling-bottle might indeed work miracles in a storm. It is -tempting to believe that such was in fact the image that saved -Herostratos. The miracle takes place just at the period when this type -of figurine was started. If we are right in associating the two, then we -are further justified in thinking that Polycharmus may have had some -solid grounds for his dating as well as for the rest of his account. - -[Illustration: Fig. 16. Perfume vase found at Naukratis.] - -[Sidenote: Evidence of large jars used for merchandise.] - -The other point concerns the large plain jars that were found on the -site[625]. Many of these are of Egyptian forms. But others, of which one -is shown in fig. 17, are unmistakably Greek. This jar was found in the -burnt deposit in the South end of the city, which represents the earlier -Egyptian settlement on the site[626]. These large jars were used by the -Greeks for the transport of wine, oil and the like[627]. In jars such as -these Sappho’s brother must have brought to Naukratis the wines of -Lesbos, and they must have figured largely in the cargoes brought by -Greeks and Phoenicians[628] to Psamtek in exchange for the cargoes that -they received from Psamtek in the days when he was building up his -power[629]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 17. Greek wine jar found at Naukratis.] - -[Sidenote: Conclusions about early Naukratis.] - -To sum up our conclusions about Naukratis: texts and excavations confirm -and supplement one another to the effect that there was an Egyptian -settlement from the beginning of the seventh century, that Greek traders -found their way there almost from the first, and that about the middle -of the seventh century the Greek trading settlement became of -considerable importance[630] through the removal to it of the occupants -of the Milesians’ Fort[631]. Finally about 569 B.C. we have the -concentration in the city of all the Greek traders in Egypt. - -[Sidenote: The position of Naukratis under Amasis] - -The Greek traders were concentrated by Amasis in Naukratis as a -concession to the Egyptians with whom they had grown more and more -unpopular owing to their influence and success. Amasis had risen to -power as the leader of an anti-Greek agitation[632], and, as Petrie -pointed out[633], the concentration was an anti-Greek move[634]. But -Amasis cleverly contrived that it should be not unpopular, but even the -reverse, with the Greeks. Naukratis as a monopoly city enjoyed an -immense reputation during Amasis’ long and prosperous reign. [Sidenote: -contrasted with its position under Psammetichus.] But the Amasis -tradition cannot conceal the fact that the time when Greek traders got -the freest welcome in Egypt was that of Psammetichus, when Greek -hoplites were being employed to establish the Saite dynasty as rulers of -all Egypt. - -[Sidenote: Daphnae and the Greek mercenaries] - -In the early days of Psammetichus, when he was overthrowing the -dodecarchy, his Greek merchants and his Greek soldiers probably had -their headquarters together, in the Milesians’ Fort. At Naukratis the -military element does not appear. From about 650 B.C. till shortly after -the accession of Amasis in 570 the Greek mercenaries are found quartered -in a place called The Camps at Daphnae on the most Easterly (Pelusian) -arm of the Nile[635]. The history of the transition from the Milesians’ -Fort to Daphnae is obscure[636]; but in a broad sense there can be -little doubt that the Fort was as much the parent of the camp at Daphnae -as of the emporium at Naukratis. Naukratis and Daphnae, the Greek -emporium and the Greek camp, were alike essential to the Saite Pharaohs, -and both had plainly gone far in their development and organization -early in Psamtek’s reign. - -[Sidenote: and the Egyptian warrior caste.] - -How closely the two were associated may be realized from the consistent -attitude of the Saite Pharaohs towards another element of the -population. The Ionian and Carian bronze men were not the first -mercenaries to form the basis of a Pharaoh’s power. The XXIInd and -XXIIIrd dynasties (_c._ 943–735 B.C.) had rested their power on their -mercenaries from Libya. These Libyan mercenaries had developed into a -caste of professional soldiers and were still in the land[637]. It is -noteworthy that no Saite, with one possible exception nearly 100 years -after Psamtek’s accession, ever attempted to use them either for -securing or for maintaining his power. Mallet notes that for the time -before Psammetichus the monuments often show commanders of Libyan -mercenaries bearing high titles, but that from his reign onwards there -is no similar instance[638]. - -Meyer[639] is probably right in suspecting that this warrior class -(μάχιμοι) formed Psamtek’s bitterest opponents. Eventually a large body -of them deserted and took service with the king of Ethiopia, and Psamtek -seems to have made no determined effort to prevent them[640]. The one -exceptional case in which the Libyan warrior class may possibly have -placed a Saite on the throne is that of Amasis (570–526 B.C.)[641], who -overthrew his predecessor Apries (589–570) by leading the native -population against the Greek mercenaries[642]. But, as Herodotus tells -us, he was soon driven to “become a philhellene[643].” Petrie thinks -that Amasis was converted under pressure of the Persian peril, and in -support of this view quotes the alliance of Amasis with Croesus[644], -Polycrates[645], and the Greek Battus of Cyrene[646], as also his -friendship with Delphi[647]. - -This point of foreign policy no doubt had its weight in the years that -saw the rise of Cyrus and his overthrow of Media in 549 B.C., Lydia in -546, Babylon in 538 (?). But it was not the cause of his conversion. -Amasis became Pharaoh in 570. In the sixth year of his reign he made an -edict that contained the following words: “Let the Ouinin (= Ionians) be -given place of habitation in the lands of the nome of Sais. Let them -take to their use ships and firewood. Let them bring their gods[648].” -Long therefore before the rise of Persia Amasis had realized how -impossible it was to maintain his position otherwise than by coming to -an understanding both with the Greek merchants and the Greek -mercenaries. Philhellenism was in fact an essential part of Saite -policy. Necho (610–594 B.C.), the son and successor of Psammetichus I, -sent offerings to Apollo at Branchidae (Miletus) after his victory over -Josiah of Judah and the Syrian fleet[649]. Psammetichus II (594–589) -died probably as a child: to his reign are probably to be assigned the -Abu Symbel inscriptions[650] scratched by Greek soldiers on monuments -far up the river by Elephantine. The people of Elis are said to have -appealed to him or his government on a point respecting the Olympian -games[651]. Apries (589–570), who fell foul of his Greek troops, had -30,000 Ionians and Carians under arms[652]. A small Greek vase found at -Corinth[653] has the cartouche of Apries. It is in the form of a -helmeted head (fig. 18). The vase is of faience (so-called). It was -probably made at Naukratis, perhaps in Petrie’s scarab factory, and -gives us a contemporary picture of one of Apries’ Greek mercenaries, or -at least of the top part of his equipment. - -[Illustration: Fig. 18. Corinthian vase with cartouche of Apries.] - -Amasis accordingly became a friend of the Greeks and remained so till he -died. The Greeks reciprocated his friendship. The feelings of the -Naukratite traders towards him are reflected plainly enough in the pages -of Herodotus[654]. The Greek mercenaries supported him loyally to the -end of his long reign, and in spite of the treachery of their commander -Phanes they fought gallantly at Pelusium in 525 B.C. when Psammetichus -III, the last of the Saites, was overthrown by the Persians. Under the -military rule of Persia the Libyan warrior class recovered its old -position[655]. - -[Sidenote: Personal relations between Saite sovereigns and Greek - tyrants.] - -Thus we have seen the Saite dynasty rising to power by means of Greek -merchandise and Greek mercenaries and maintaining its power by the same -means. Its general policy follows the same lines as that of the -tyrannies that sprang up at this time all over the Greek world. -Herodotus with his usual insight recognized this fact when he put into -his history the story of the friendship between Amasis and the Samian -tyrant Polycrates. Amasis was probably not the first of the Saites to -have a Greek tyrant for his friend. Cordial relations with Thrasybulus, -the tyrant of Miletus, are suggested by Necho’s offerings to the -Milesian Apollo, and the friend of Thrasybulus must have been also the -friend of the Corinthian tyrant Periander. It has often been assumed, -and not without reason, that Periander’s successor was called -Psammetichus from some personal connexion with the lord of Sais. - -[Sidenote: The name Psammetichus.] - -Psammetichus I is the first individual known to have borne that name. It -is possible therefore that it may have had some special appropriateness -to his own or his father’s career[656]. One of the most probable -interpretations of the name is “man (vendor) of mixing bowls.” The -choice seems to lie between this interpretation and “man (vendor) of -mixed wine” (_i.e._ wine mixed with spices, etc.). Which of these is to -be preferred depends on the interpretation of the root mtk[657]. In -hieratic writing the phonetic symbols are sometimes followed by a -“determinative” symbol or pictograph, placed at the end to prevent -misunderstanding. The determinative for mtk is the picture of a vase, as -seen for instance in _Rylands Library Demotic Papyri_, p. 201. The vase -has a barrel or pear-shaped body, narrow neck, and broad flat mouth, ⚱. -The particular shape must not be pressed, and the picture may be meant -to denote not the vase but its contents. But it must mean one or the -other[658]. Griffith thinks it denotes the contents, his reasons being -these[659]: mtk is a Coptic root meaning “mix” and has a Hebrew -equivalent meaning “mixture” (wine mixed). This meaning “seems to fit -all requirements[660],” _i.e._ it suits the story of the libation which -led Psammetichus to become king[661], and also the tales of the low and -bibulous (φιλοπότης) origin of Amasis[662]. Griffith’s interpretation -rests ultimately on the philological point, and on the assumption that -the root in Egyptian must have precisely the same meaning as in Coptic -and Hebrew. I am indebted to the writer himself for the information that -this is not always the case. Apart from philology “mixed wine” may suit -all requirements[663]: but does it do so quite as well as “mixing bowl”? -The whole point of the story of Psammetichus’ libation depends not on -the wine but its receptacle. On either interpretation however it is -sufficiently remarkable that the ruler who is said to have risen to -power by trade should have had so mercantile a name. Griffith does not -forget the possibility that the name may have been the source of the -stories[664]. The two possibilities are not mutually exclusive. A -merchant prince may be proud of his origin: but that fact will not -always prevent other people from telling good unofficial stories about -his early days. - - - - - Chapter V. _Lydia_ - - - “Yes, ready money is Aladdin’s lamp.”—BYRON. - -[Sidenote: Tyranny and coinage both said to be of Lydian origin.] - -In an enquiry into the connexions between the new form of government and -the new form of wealth that both arose at the opening of the classical -epoch Lydia has a special interest and importance for the reason that -both coinage and tyranny are said on good authority to have been of -Lydian origin. Considering how much Lydia was then in the background of -the Greek world this fact by itself is suggestive. It becomes important -to determine the dates, and connexions if any, of the first Lydian -tyrant and the first Lydian coins. It should be said at once that no -Lydian ruler has been credited with the invention of coinage, and that -no very definite conclusions can be drawn from the available material. -The evidence is however sufficiently suggestive to repay a careful -examination. - -[Illustration: Fig. 19. Coins of (_a_) Gyges (?), (_b_) Croesus.] - -[Sidenote: Date of the earliest coins.] - -Both the date and the place of the final evolution of a metal coinage -are the subject of much dispute. Among writers of a generation or more -ago the question of date was mainly a matter of speculation as to how -long an interval was required between the earliest silver coins with a -type in relief on both sides, which on grounds of style, epigraphy, and -circumstances of find can be dated with fair accuracy to about the -middle of the sixth century, and the primitive electrum pieces punched -on one side and striated on the other (fig. 19. _a_) that probably -belong to the earliest issues of Lydia. Most of the leading numismatists -allowed some three or four generations and assigned the earliest coins -to the earlier part of the seventh century[665]. But more recently facts -have come to light which point to the possibility of an earlier and -perhaps a considerably earlier date. A round dump of silver weighing -3·654 grammes was found by Sir Arthur Evans at Knossos in a stratum that -cannot, he says, be dated later than the twelfth century B.C., and two -similar dumps of gold weighing 4·723 and 4·678 grammes along with a -third of elongated shape weighing 8·601 were found during the British -Museum excavations at Enkomi in Cyprus, a site which according to Evans -must be dated equally early[666]. These few Cretan and Cyprian dumps are -no argument against the mass of material which points to a great -numismatic development at a date not so very far removed from 700 B.C. -But they do shift the balance of probability backward and make a date in -the eighth century as likely as one in the seventh. The same conclusion -is suggested by the recent British excavations of the famous temple of -Artemis at Ephesus[667]. There, below the temple erected in the days of -Croesus and to which he contributed the sculptured column now in the -British Museum, the excavators found remains of three earlier -structures. While clearing out these early buildings they found 87 -electrum coins. Twenty of these were extracted from between the slabs of -the earliest of the three buildings, five (including four of the lion -type) were extracted from underneath the foundations of the second -building, and all low down within the area of these three early -structures. The total evidence points to all the 87 coins being not -later than the time of the first of the three buildings, _i.e._ well -before the time of Croesus. The series begins with the striated type -(above fig. 19. _a_) that is generally regarded as the most primitive of -all, while far the commonest type (42 coins) is the lion’s head of the -style usually attributed to Alyattes[668]. - -From the latest building to the earliest coin means a considerable -period, and may well take us back into the eighth century. General -historical considerations are however against going back too far into -the eighth century. It was only in the course of that century that -brigandage and piracy gave place to trade and commerce and the first -traces can be discovered of the great renaissance that led to Classical -Greece. If the earliest coins were struck by Lydia they are more likely -to have been issued in the second half of the century than the first, -since the establishment of the second Assyrian empire in 745 B.C. -probably gave a great impetus to Lydian trade. This, however, is -assuming the claims of Lydia to the “invention.” They have been -frequently challenged and before proceeding it is necessary briefly to -examine them. - -[Sidenote: The evidence for attributing them to Lydia.] - -The Lydians are only one of several peoples and cities that were -credited by the ancients with the invention of coinage. This uncertainty -was inevitable. Coinage was not invented but evolved[669]. But it is -probable that in the final stage of the evolution some one state was a -little ahead of the rest, and put in this form the Lydians have a good -claim to the invention. They have in their favour our two best and -oldest witnesses, Xenophanes and Herodotus[670], the latter of whom -recognized their outstanding position as traders and plainly sees in it -the explanation of their leading position in the evolution of coined -money[671]. The facts as far as we know them bear these authorities out. -Lydia contains Mt Tmolus and Mt Sipylus and the river Pactolus, the main -sources of the supply of the metal in which the most primitive coins -were struck. It was probably just about this period that the Lydian -electrum mines began to be worked[672] and the electrum of Sardis gained -the fame it still enjoyed in the days of Sophocles[673]. The kings of -Lydia from the beginning of the seventh century onward were famous for -their wealth[674]. The touch-stone used by the ancients for testing the -precious metals came likewise from Mt Tmolus, and was called “Lydian -stone[675].” Furthermore, the Lydians occupied a unique position for -purposes of trade. Sardis, their capital, was the place where the great -trade-route from the further East, the “royal road,” as Herodotus calls -it[676], branched out to reach the various Greek cities on the -coast[677]. - -In the face of this evidence it is hardly necessary to examine in detail -the arguments of the modern sceptics who have disputed Lydia’s claim. In -many cases they start from the baseless assumption that so remarkable an -invention cannot but be due to the quick-witted Greeks[678]. True, the -earliest electrum coins are said to have been found mostly along the -Eastern shore of the Aegean, but it does not follow that that is where -they were all struck. Gold pieces were common enough in Greece in the -first half of the fourth century B.C., but they had nearly all been -struck in Persia. 30,000 Darics (fig. 8) were distributed among the -Greeks by the Great King’s agents in one single year[679]. The two -staters of gold that each of the Delphians received from King -Croesus[680] were undoubtedly Crœseids[681]. - -Again, the modern market for ancient coins has been largely restricted -to the coast. Because a coin was bought in Smyrna it does not follow -that it was found there. Of Sardis itself we still know too little to -speak with any assurance[682]. But the absence of finds, even at Sardis, -would not be decisive, since on Radet’s theory the Lydian coinage was -intended mainly for export, just as appears later to have been the case -with the silver tetradrachms of Smyrna, Myrina, Cyme, Lebedos, Magnesia -ad Maeandrum and Heraclea Ioniae, which are rarely found near their -place of origin, but with few exceptions are brought from different -parts of Syria[683]. - -More serious are the criticisms which do not altogether reject -Xenophanes, but explain him away by means of an interpretation of -Herodotus I. 94 first put forward by J. P. Six and later developed by -Babelon[684]. Six maintained that when Herodotus there states that the -Lydians were the first to strike and use coins of gold and silver, the -reference is to the concurrent issue of coins in the two separate -metals, or, in other words, to the coinage of Croesus (fig. 19. _b_), -who is generally admitted to have been the first to give up electrum in -favour of separate issues of gold and silver. But though it is true that -“coins of gold and silver” cannot mean “coins of electrum,” it by no -means follows that Herodotus is referring to the beginnings not of -coinage but of bimetallism. Babelon is right in insisting on the exact -words used by Herodotus, but in his interpretation of them he takes -perhaps too little account of the type of fact usually recorded by the -historian. Which is Herodotus more likely to give us? An inaccurate -version of a fundamental fact like the invention of coined money? Or a -pedantically accurate statement about an experiment in bimetallism that -was after all of quite secondary importance? Other things being equal we -should surely always prefer the interpretation which gives us the -former, and there is nothing to prevent us from doing so in the present -case. Assume that Xenophanes means what he says and that his statement -represents the prevalent tradition, and it is easy to see how Herodotus -came to use the precise words that he did. - -“The Lydians,” he begins, “were the first to strike and use coins.” We -must remember who it was that he was writing for. His readers would be -found mainly in the free cities of European Greece. Down to the days -when he ended his history these European Greeks had coined almost -exclusively in silver. On the other hand the coinage of Lydia and the -other Persian satrapies of Asia Minor consisted of Darics of gold and -shekels of silver, and people in those parts doubtless remembered that -this coinage in the two metals went back to the days of the Lydian -kings. It is a fundamental principle with our historian never to omit -any fact that he can possibly insert. In this case an extra fact can be -inserted in three words, χρυσοῦ καὶ ἀργύρου, and almost inevitably the -words go in. Possibly he had forgotten for the moment the primitive -pieces of electrum: it is equally possible that accuracy was sacrificed -to fulness of information. Another way of meeting Babelon’s difficulty -is suggested by Babelon’s own article. It is generally assumed that the -first coins struck in Asia Minor were all of electrum, and that electrum -later gave way to gold and silver. But Babelon[685] quotes an example of -what is generally regarded as the earliest Lydian electrum type (_ob._ -striated, _rev._ three small stamps as on silver spoons) that appears -from its specific gravity to contain 98 per cent. silver and weighs -10·81 grammes. This latter is the unit of the so-called Babylonian -standard, which is employed almost exclusively for silver, the only -exception being a gold issue of Croesus. It is true that the coin has a -yellow tint, and that it may contain more than 2 per cent. gold, if the -light specific gravity is due partly to the presence of copper[686]. -There are cases too of what seem to be unquestionable electrum coins -with a very low percentage of gold, _e.g._ _Brit. Mus. Cat. Coins of -Ionia_, p. 47, nos. 2, 3, Ephesian thirds of the normal Phoenician -standard, one with only 14 per cent. gold to judge by the specific -gravity, the other actually with only 5 per cent. But the combined -evidence of weight and specific gravity gives strong support to -Babelon’s view that the coin must have been intended to pass as -silver[687]. Babelon assigns this piece to Miletus, but on no sufficient -grounds. As he himself points out[688], the weight is exactly that of -the silver coins of Croesus, a weight which in Ionia prevailed only at -Colophon and Erythrae in the fifth century and at Miletus in the -third[689], and in these three cases was borrowed from the Persian -siglos (shekel), which latter was the direct successor of the silver -coins of Croesus. The earliest silver coins assigned by Head to Miletus -are struck on the Aeginetan standard (185 grains)[690]. In short, if it -seems probable that this piece is silver, _a fortiori_ is it probable -that it is Lydian, and if, as the evidence all tends to show, this is -the case, the importance of the piece at once becomes obvious. It means -that from the earliest period of their coinage the Lydians struck not -only in electrum but also in silver. Now for Herodotus electrum was only -a variety of gold. His name for it is “white gold” (λευκὸς χρυσός), and -he appears to regard it as gold of a particular quality, just as -Bonacossi does the gold of China when he describes it as “pâle, mou et -ductile[691].” - -When therefore Herodotus speaks of the Lydians as the first to coin in -gold and silver he may well mean white gold and silver and be referring, -like Xenophanes, to the original “invention” of coined money. But even -if Babelon is right, there is still no decisive reason why we should not -ascribe to the Lydians the original “invention” as well as the first -bimetallic development. Thus Xenophanes and Herodotus may be regarded as -pointing to Lydia as the first country to strike coins, and after all -they were in a fairly good position for ascertaining the facts[692]. -Certainty is perhaps hardly attainable. But that does not justify a -completely sceptical attitude. It is the reverse of scientific to treat -an epoch illuminated by many half lights as though it was one of total -darkness. The safest course in such a case is to operate with -probabilities. - -[Sidenote: The origin of the title tyrant.] - -The claim of Lydia to have been the original home of tyranny is based on -similar evidence that needs to be similarly used. The earliest authority -for it is Euphorion (third century B.C.), who says that the first ruler -to be called tyrant was Gyges, who began to reign in the XVIIIth -Olympiad (708–704 B.C.)[693]. The statement has been doubted as being -perhaps only an inference from Homer and Archilochus drawn by later -writers[694]. Homer does not use the word τύραννος. It first appears in -Archilochus, and apparently the tyrant that Archilochus had in mind was -his contemporary[695] Gyges: - - I care not for golden Gyges.... - I long not for a great tyranny[696]. - -But even if only an inference from this source the statement may still -be of some value. The word tyrant is not Greek and may be Lydian[697]. A -new title does not necessarily imply a new form of government; but if -there is independent evidence for thinking that a new form of government -arose just at this time, then that evidence will be corroborated by the -appearance of a new title; and if that title has a particular local -origin, it becomes of particular interest to examine the history of the -rulers of the region where the change arose. - -As our evidence leaves it uncertain whether Gyges was the first ruler of -his kind to arise in Lydia or merely the first to find a prominent place -in Greek literature and as further we find unusual steps for securing -the throne attributed to Lydian rulers of about the middle of the eighth -century it will be well to begin at this earlier date. - -[Sidenote: How Spermos and Ardys became kings of Lydia.] - -According to the story told by Nicolaus Damascenus[698], Damonno, the -wife of Cadys, whose reign is ascribed to the middle of the eighth -century[699], after her royal husband’s death won over by her wealth a -large number of Lydians, expelled her brother-in-law Ardys, and then -married her lover Spermos and proclaimed him king. When banished by -Spermos and Damonno, Ardys goes into business at Cyme as a -waggon-builder (ἁμαξοπηγῶν) and is keeping a hotel (πανδοκεύων) there -when called back to the throne of Sardis. He is brought back by a -tavern-keeper or retail trader (κάπηλος) named Thyessos[700], who as his -reward asked and received that this inn or shop (καπηλεῖον) should be -exempt from paying dues (ἀτελές) and after a time became rich from his -shop-keeping (καπηλεύειν) and as a result established near it a market -and a shrine of Hermes[701]. The part played in this story by innkeepers -may, at first sight, seem odd. But as pointed out by Radet[702] in -discussing the word κάπηλος, innkeeper was probably synonymous with -merchant in the days of Ardys (766–730 B.C.)[703], when Lydia was -already becoming a great highway of commerce between Further Asia and -the Aegean[704]. The Lydian merchants of the period must have seen the -advantage of providing food and shelter for the members of the caravans -with whom they traded. Waggon-building, which was one of the occupations -of the banished Ardys[705], is part of the same activity, connected with -the famous road that did as much to make the fortunes of ancient Lydia -as railways will some day do to revive them in the future. - -If the narrative of Nicolaus is to be believed, then, as recognized some -time ago by Gelzer[706], the Lydian leaders of the period appear as -great merchants and men of business, and more than that, it is as such -that the rulers secure the throne, and a not unnatural inference is that -it was the spread of this new type of merchant prince from Lydia -Westward over the Greek world that caused the spread at the same time of -the Lydian title. There is nothing improbable in the assumption that -Lydian history of this period was preserved in a fairly authentic form. -True our extant authorities are late and their sources uncertain, and -the story of Spermos has perhaps an excessive resemblance to that of -Gyges and the wife of his predecessor Candaules[707]. In both cases the -usurper marries the wife of his predecessor and owes to her his throne. -The close relations between Ardys and the Greek Cyme recall those -between the house of Gyges and the tyrant house of Melas at Ephesus, -which latter is very plausibly explained by Radet[708] as based on their -common business interests. But these resemblances do not prove that the -two narratives are not both true. The two queens may have responded in -the same way to similar semi-matriarchal surroundings, and the two -princes have found similar solutions for the same commercial problem. If -the Damonno Ardys story is not history we have no Lydian history of that -age. But even so it is of value as reflecting conditions that prevailed -at the beginning of the seventh century and possibly went back to the -period to which the story is ascribed. - -Chronologically we ought next to deal with Gyges himself. Unfortunately -his history, and more particularly the part that tells how he won the -throne, has been much obscured by legend. We shall examine it with a -better prospect of disinterring the facts if first we review certain -later incidents of Lydian history. - -[Sidenote: Later rulers of Lydia.] - -The century that followed Gyges is for this purpose not very -illuminating. A great part of it is taken up with the national struggle -against the Cimmerian invaders. The kings of the house of Gyges appear -to have led this struggle well, and as a natural result their power was -seldom called into question. It is only before the accession of Croesus, -the last king of the line, that active steps appear to have been -necessary to secure the throne. The reason was not any anti-monarchic -movement, but rivalry between two sons or possibly grandsons of the old -and perhaps senile King Alyattes. None the less, the steps taken by the -rivals are not without significance. [Sidenote: Financial dealings of -Croesus before he became king.] The story is told[709] that shortly -before Alyattes’ death Croesus, the subsequently successful rival, had -borrowed largely from a very rich man[710] in Ephesus in order to appear -before the old king with a levy. Before resorting to the rich Ephesian, -Croesus had appealed to a certain “Sadyattes the merchant, the richest -man in Lydia,” who had refused to lend to him for the reason, as it -subsequently turned out, that he was backing the other candidate for the -throne, Croesus’ half-brother, the half-Greek Pantaleon[711]. Croesus’ -poverty, we are informed, was due to spendthrift habits. But it is -doubtful whether his lavishness at this period was simply youthful -dissipation, and not rather part of a systematic policy. - -Only a few years later Peisistratus of Athens “rooted his tyranny” on -revenues from mines. Reasons have been given above[712] for thinking -that he was already endeavouring to do so. May not Croesus have been -pursuing a similar course? Later in his career, when he wanted to win -the special favour of Delphi, “he sent to Pytho, ascertained the number -of Delphians, and presented each one of them with two staters of -gold[713].” The staters of Croesus (above fig. 19. _b_) were among the -most famous coins of antiquity[714]. Reference is made in the _Mirabiles -Auscultationes_ to gold mines that he worked[715]. His wealth was -proverbial[716]. Most of it he inherited from his predecessor[717]: but -the wise old Alyattes knew that it was the root of his power and clung -to it till his death. For the rivals it is a question who can secure it -first and in the meanwhile carry on best without it. Both try to borrow -on a princely scale, and to judge by the issue Croesus was the more -successful. “As a result of that proceeding he got the upper hand of his -calumniators[718].” He became king, and his government is described by -Radet[719] as “une puissante monarchie régnant par la force de l’or.” - -This is all conjecture, but it is borne out alike by Croesus’ own -behaviour and by the advice to Cyrus that is put into his mouth after he -has become the captive and the counsellor of the Persian king. - -The first thing that Croesus did after securing the throne was to put -Sadyattes to death and to confiscate his possessions[720]. By itself -this might be taken simply as part of something corresponding to a -normal process of attainder. But the Sadyattes incident must be read in -the light of the advice that Croesus is represented as having -subsequently given to Cyrus, the gist of which is that Cyrus is to -beware above all things of the richest of his subjects[721]. [Sidenote: -Croesus bids Cyrus to suspect a rival in the richest of his subjects.] -The speech is of course pure fiction: so too is very possibly the whole -story of the intimacy between Croesus and his conqueror[722]. But all -the same Croesus is Herodotus’ embodiment of the wise and experienced -ruler of the sixth century, the century during which the historian’s -father was born only a little way from the borders of Croesus’ kingdom. -If in the pages of Herodotus he is made to regard wealth as the basis of -political power, it must be because the historian believed such to have -been in fact the case. Of the evidence that may have led him, and with -good reason, to this belief, one item may have been derived from the -colossal tomb of Croesus’ predecessor Alyattes, which according to the -account given by Herodotus was constructed by the tradesmen and artizans -and prostitutes (οἱ ἀγοραῖοι ἄνθρωποι καὶ οἱ χειρώνακτες καὶ αἱ -ἐνεργαζόμεναι παιδίσκαι)[723]. [Sidenote: The tomb of Croesus’ father -had been erected by tradesmen, artizans, and “working girls.”] -Presumably these were the classes who had most benefited or at least -been most affected by Alyattes’ rule, and on whose support he had mainly -depended[724]. The largest part of the tomb is said by Herodotus to have -been built by the “working girls” (= prostitutes) but too much attention -need not be paid to this typical instance of Herodotean “malignity.” -Strabo’s report that the tomb was said by some to be that of a harlot -(πόρνης) is equally suspicious. It may possibly have arisen from the -obscene symbols that appeared on various parts of the monument, -including its summit. Possibly the builders of the tomb got mistaken for -its occupant. The reverse process is less likely, as it leaves the -tradesmen and artizans unaccounted for[725]. - -[Sidenote: Revolt from Cyrus of Pactyes who had all the gold from - Sardis.] - -In conformity with the policy that Herodotus puts into the mouth of -Croesus, Cyrus was careful before he returned from Lydia to Persia to -separate the political and financial power in his new conquest: - - Sardis he entrusted to Tabalos, a Persian gentleman, but the gold - both of Croesus and the other Lydians he gave to Pactyes, a man of - Lydia, to look after (κομίζειν).... But when Cyrus had marched away - from Sardis, Pactyes caused the Lydians to revolt from Tabalos and - Cyrus, and going down to the sea, as was but natural since he had - all the gold from Sardis, he proceeded to hire mercenaries and - persuaded the population by the sea to join his expedition[726]. - -[Sidenote: Xerxes and the rich Lydian Pythes.] - -In the days of Xerxes the richest of all the Lydians was Pythes the son -of Atys. After Xerxes himself, Pythes was the richest man known to the -Persians of that day. His wealth amounted to 2000 talents of silver and -3,993,000 golden Darics[727]. He held some sort of rule under the Great -King at Kelainai in Phrygia and owed his enormous wealth to his mines, -in which the citizens of his dominions were forced to labour. When -Xerxes reached Kelainai on his way to invade Greece, Pythes offered to -present the whole of this immense sum to the king[728]. So stupendous a -present requires a special explanation. It is not like “the gold plane -tree and the vine” that Pythes had given earlier to King Darius. It -looks as if he had suddenly discovered with intense alarm that Xerxes, -like Cyrus before him, feared nothing so much as a man of extraordinary -wealth, and as if this present was a desperate attempt to disarm the -Great King’s suspicions. The father of Pythes bore the same name as one -of the sons of Croesus, and Pythes himself has been thought by some -modern scholars to have been the grandson of Croesus[729]. The name -Pytheus (Pythes) might be due to Croesus’ relations with Delphi[730]. - -The evidence so far adduced has pointed to the following conclusions: -metal coinage reached its final evolution in Lydia, probably in the -second half of the eighth century B.C.; the title tyrant reached Greece -from Lydia probably early in the seventh century; from the middle of the -eighth century down to the end of the age of the tyrants all the rulers -or would-be rulers of Lydia of whom we have any relevant information -regarded money as the basis of political power. [Sidenote: Radet -suggests that the first coins were struck by the first tyrants,] In the -face of these facts it is not surprising that Radet, the scholar who has -devoted most attention in recent years to this period of Lydian history, -should have expressed the opinion that the earliest tyrants were also -the first coiners[731]. - -The rest of this chapter will be devoted to examining and very -tentatively developing this suggestion. - -Radet attributed the earliest coins to Gyges and imagined them as having -been struck when Gyges was already on the throne[732]. He wrote however -before Enkomi, Knossos, and Ephesus had suggested the possibility of an -earlier date for the earliest coins, and he does not consider the -possibility that it may have been quite as much a case of the coins -making the tyrant as the tyrant making the coins. No certainty is to be -looked for on this point, but for arriving at the greatest available -probability it will be well for a moment to turn to the brilliant and -convincing account of the last stages in the evolution of metal coinage -published by Lenormant and developed by Babelon. Lenormant’s account of -the circumstances in which stamped pieces of precious metal of definite -weight first came into circulation cannot be given better than in his -own words: - -[Sidenote: Lenormant that they were private issues.] - - Pour la commodité du commerce, auquel ils servent d’instrument - habituel d’échange, on donne à ces lingots des poids exacts ... de ½ - à 10 taels en or, de ½ à 100 taels en argent. Mais leur circulation - et leur acceptation n’ont aucun caractère légal et obligatoire. - L’autorité publique n’a point à y intervenir et ne leur donne aucune - garantie. Ces lingots ne portent aucune empreinte si ce n’est en - certains cas un poinçonnement individuel, simple marque d’origine et - de fabrique, qui quelquefois inspire assez de confiance pour - dispenser de la vérification du titre du métal, lorsque c’est celle - d’un négociant assez honorablement connu. La facilité avec laquelle - on accepte le lingot à tel ou tel poinçon tient donc entièrement au - crédit personnel de celui qui l’a marqué[733]. - -The passage just quoted describes not a theory of Lenormant’s but the -actual practice of the Chinese empire[734]. A similar currency of ingots -stamped by merchants or bankers has been used in many other parts of the -world, _e.g._ Japan[735], Java[736], India[737] and Russia[738]. -Reversions to the practice of private coinage have been frequent in -America[739]; “for a long time the copper currency of England consisted -mainly of tradesmen’s tokens,” used largely by manufacturers to pay the -wages of their workpeople[740]. The earliest coins of Asia Minor are -regarded by the French savants as private issues of a similar kind to -those just quoted. The small stamps of which several often appear on an -early electrum coin (_e.g._ above fig. 19. _a_ right) are regarded by -them as marks or countermarks of bankers or merchants. Babelon[741] -points out that these stamps cannot be identified as the types of towns -or kings; that in one case no less than six of them are found on a -single coin[742]; and that they continue to be put on to the state -coinage of Darius. The case for Lydia therefore rests largely on -analogies, and analogies can never be quite conclusive. Some even of -these must be used with caution, _e.g._ those from Russia and -Merovingian France, where it is difficult to be sure that they do not -represent a stage of decadence rather than development. But decadence is -often another name for reversion to type, and some of the instances -already quoted, _e.g._ those from China and India, are sufficiently -remote to be safely trusted. The total effect of the evidence marshalled -by Lenormant and Babelon is impressive, and certainly no other view -offers so satisfactory an explanation of the distinguishing features of -the earliest Greek coins. Their view has already won partial -acceptance[743]. There are of course gaps in the evidence, notably as to -the circumstances of the nationalization of the coinage. But this is not -very surprising if, as the stories of Damonno and Ardys suggest, it was -in a succession of financial struggles for the throne that the control -of the mint came gradually to be synonymous with the kingship. When the -two were finally equated is a matter of conjecture. The chief part in -the process may perhaps have been played by the tradesman king Ardys, -but on the whole it seems likely that it was Gyges who completed the -evolution of metal coinage by making it the prerogative of the state -after he had first used it to obtain the supreme power. [Sidenote: -Gyges.] His career falls early enough to make this possible[744], and -the gold of Gyges attained proverbial fame[745]. - -Herodotus indeed seems to discountenance the view that Gyges was ever a -merchant or banker, since he describes him as serving as a guardsman -αἰχμοφόρος, δορυφόρος under his predecessor Candaules[746]. But -Schubert[747] is probably right in putting only a limited confidence in -this part of our account of his career, which he shows to have been -derived from Delphi. He even suggests[748] that Gyges had bought up -Delphi before, with a view to his accession, just as Croesus endeavoured -to purchase the favour of Apollo before his attempted conquest of -Persia[749]. If there is any truth in this plausible suggestion, then -the guardsman part of the story may well have been a half-truth -emphasized to hide Gyges’ commercial antecedents, and Gyges may have -secured the throne mainly through his wealth. - -It is true that Gyges as tyrant fought against the Cimmerians who at -this time were sweeping over Asia Minor, and that later in his reign he -rebelled against Assyria[750]. From time to time he invaded the Greek -cities on the coast. He may even have taken military measures to secure -the throne, if, as Radet argues[751], his accession meant the overthrow -of a Maeonian domination and the substitution for it of a Lydian. All -this however is no proof of particular militarism. The wars against the -Cimmerians were defensive. The revolt from Assyria was an indirect -result of the Cimmerian wars. If Gyges took the aggressive against the -Greeks[752], his motive was probably commercial. He wanted “to secure -for the Lydian caravans a free and sure outlet for their goods[753].” -These Greek wars were seldom carried to extremes[754]. As regards the -fighting by which he is said to have seized the throne, note that his -troops, in part at least, were Carian mercenaries[755]. - -Immediately after establishing himself by these violent means Gyges -“sent for his various friends and enemies. Those whom he thought would -oppose him he did away with; but to the rest he gave presents and made -them mercenaries[756].” - -[Sidenote: The ring of Gyges] - -A confirmation of this same view as to the origin of Gyges’ power is -possibly to be found in the story of Gyges and his ring. In this famous -story, as told by Plato[757], Gyges was a shepherd who discovered in the -earth a magic gold ring, which gave him the power of invisibility and -enabled him to enter the palace, slay the king, and procure his own -accession. As happens so often when a story of the order of the _Arabian -Nights_ is applied to a historical personage, the immediate problem is -to discover not the origin of the story, but the points about the -historical character that caused the story in question to get attached -to him. We may begin by dismissing the shepherding, since Gyges belonged -to an ancient and princely family[758]. - -The fact or facts that caused Gyges to be associated with the story -probably had some connexion with the magic ring and its discovery in the -earth. It has for instance been suggested that the real magic of the -ring of Gyges lay in the signet that serves as a passport and reveals or -conceals a man’s identity according to the way he wears it. Radet[759] -pictures Gyges as a sort of major domo to Candaules, and the ring as the -emblem of his power. Explanations of this kind are not without -plausibility; they are right in taking notice of the signet[760]; but -they ignore one essential detail of the story namely the marvellous -discovery of the ring, nor do they go to the root of the matter, if, as -the story plainly implies, the ring of Gyges is to be equated with the -real source of his power. From this last point of view it becomes -probable that Radet has come very much nearer the truth in another -passage, where he says: “Gygès et ses successeurs ont possédé un -merveilleux talisman: la science économique[761].” [Sidenote: explained -by Radet as “la science économique.”] There is a point about the ring -story that tells strongly in favour of some explanation on the lines of -this second suggestion of Radet’s. The hero of the story is not always -Gyges: in Pliny[762] it is Midas the king of Phrygia who was overthrown -by the Cimmerians a generation before they overthrew Gyges[763]. It is -of course possible that Pliny is merely making a mistake about the name. -But it is equally possible that a genuine tradition attributed the ring -to Midas. Midas has much else in common with Gyges and the points of -resemblance deserve to be noticed. His kingdom, like that of Gyges, was -famous for its precious metals[764]. Like Lydia it occupied an important -part of the great caravan route[765]. Midas was the golden king still -more than Gyges. His touch turned all things into gold until he was -freed from this disastrous power by bathing in the Pactolus, the river -from which the Lydians got so much of their electrum[766]. According to -one account coins were first struck by “Demodike of Cyme, daughter of -Agamemnon king of the Cymaeans, after her marriage with Midas the -Phrygian[767].” Midas, like Gyges, sent rich presents (bribes?) to -Delphi[768]. In short the great point of resemblance which Midas bears -to Gyges lies in his enormous wealth and the ways in which he appears to -have acquired and used it[769]. It may be that this implied the -possession of the magic ring[770]. - -[Sidenote: With the story of the finding of the ring cp. stories of - finds in mining districts.] - -The circumstances of the find recall two anecdotes in the _Mirabiles -Auscultationes_[771], located the one in Paionia the other in Pieria, in -which, as in the Gyges story, we have the rains, the chasms, the find of -gold and the taking of it to the palace. In at least one of the two -cases the find is treasure trove, like the ring of Gyges. But the point -to be noticed is that both Paionia and Pieria are in the famous mining -district that played so great a part in the history of Athens and -Macedonia. Considering the fame of the mines of Lydia it is natural to -ask whether they did not play their part in the evolution of the story -of the ring. Stories of men buried in the mines of Lydia did actually -exist. One of them, told in the _Mirabiles Auscultationes_, shows that -in Lydia, as in the region of Mt Pangaion and the river Strymon, chasms -containing skeletons and gold were not unlikely to be mine shafts, and -the power secured by their discoverer to be simply the power of suddenly -and perhaps secretly acquired wealth. - -As to the date at which Tmolus was first mined nothing is known except -that the workings were disused in the days of Strabo[772]. It may well -have been worked from the earliest days of Gyges if, as is probable, he -mined at Pergamus and further afield[773]. Lydians mining in those -regions would hardly be neglecting mines so near their own capital, the -more so as they would be directed to them by following the golden stream -of the Pactolus[774]. - -In the face of these facts it is tempting to go one step further than -Radet when he explains Gyges’ talisman as economic science. [Sidenote: -Rings as money.] We are reminded of Byron’s description of the most -potent of talismans: - - Yes, ready money is Aladdin’s lamp[775]. - -Gyges, it is true, discovered a ring, not a lamp, but the particular -form of his talisman only adds point to the Byronic interpretation. Till -somewhere about the time of the story rings were probably ready money in -the literal sense of the phrase[776]. In many parts of the world before -the introduction of a regular stamped coinage trade had been conducted -largely by means of rings of specific weight[777]. - -Much of the evidence for this use takes us back well into the second -millennium. Some of the localities where it is known to have prevailed -earliest were connected with Lydia at this time. Egypt was the ally of -Gyges, the Hittites were the predecessors of the Lydians in the land of -Lydia. Troy probably formed part of Gyges’ dominions[778]. The book of -Genesis specifically associates ring money with caravans[779]. It is -therefore probable that rings circulated in Lydia itself until they were -supplanted by the new stamped coins, which may have owed their shape to -its convenience for stamping. [Sidenote: With Gyges’ ring cp. perhaps -Pheidon’s spits, the Attic obol and drachma, and the Roman as.] In -Argos, according to a tradition which is defended in the next chapter, -the stamped coinage was preceded by a currency of metal spits (below, -fig. 21): if the tradition is to be trusted, these spits remained -permanently associated with the name of the tyrant who displaced them by -coined money. Have we a parallel in the case of the Gyges story? Is its -hero the inventor of the new stamped coinage and has his name become -associated with the rings that he displaced? It is perfectly possible -that the new coins were at first regarded as so many rings’ worth of -precious metal. The name νόμισμα implies that the stamped coin had won -general acceptance; it would of course be quite appropriate to a -currency in rings or kettles or cows; but there is no evidence of its -use previous to the introduction of a stamped metal coinage, and it was -probably the general acceptance of this latter that gave rise to the -word. To call the earliest Lydian coins rings (δακτύλιοι) would be -precisely like calling the earliest coins of Athens spits (ὀβελοί) or -bundles of spits (δραχμαί) or the earliest coins of Rome bars (asses). -If obol and drachma and as survived while δακτύλιος did not, the fact is -sufficiently accounted for by the histories of Athens, Rome, and Lydia. - -[Sidenote: But if so, why is the ring a seal ring?] - -The explanation just offered of the ring of Gyges omits one detail that -is essential to the story as told by Plato. Plato’s ring is a signet -ring, and it is the seal (σφραγίς) that does the magic. Babelon holds -that the seal makers (δακτυλιογλύφοι) of the period were probably also -the coin strikers. But if we are to follow one of our own leading -numismatists, G. Macdonald, the connexion between seal and coin was -closer than this. Originally, according to him[780], coins were simply -pieces of sealed metal. - -[Sidenote: “Coins are pieces of sealed metal.”] - - The minting of money in its most primitive form was simply the - placing of a seal on lumps of electrum that had previously been - weighed and adjusted to a fixed standard: the excessive rarity of - coins that have only a striated surface on the obverse proves that - this primitive stage was of short duration[781]. - -Greek seals were normally attached to rings[782]. The definition of a -coin as a piece of sealed metal was started by Burgon, who used it as an -argument for the religious character of coin types and described the -seal as “the impress of the symbol of the tutelar divinity of the -city[783].” Macdonald very rightly rejects the theory, so widely current -before the appearance of Ridgeway’s _Metallic Currency_, that all coin -types had a religious origin. But he himself proceeds to hang on to the -seal theory views of his own that are equally untenable, at least in the -sweeping form in which he states them. He assumes that the seal must be -always that of a state or king or magistrate, and that the device is -usually heraldic. The latter point does not concern us here[784]: the -former does, since it is incompatible with the views of Babelon and -Lenormant that the earliest coins were not state issues. But the seal -theory does not depend on the nature either of the seals or of the -sealers. There is no reason why we should not accept Babelon and -Lenormant on the private character of the earliest coins simultaneously -with Burgon and Macdonald on the character of the first coin types as -being simply seals. Indeed some of the evidence collected by Macdonald -positively suggests that we should. In the fifth and fourth centuries -B.C. at Athens public property was stamped with the public seal, τῷ -δημοσίῳ σημάντρῳ[785]. The same practice was followed in the fifth -century at Samos[786], and perhaps at Syracuse[787]. This use of public -seals to stamp public property suggests corresponding private seals -similarly used. At this point the literary evidence fails us, but -archaeological documents come to our aid. - -Metal was not the only material that the ancients stamped in this way. -Wine jars, bricks, and tiles were similarly stamped. Thousands of these -stamps have come down to us, and many of them bear city symbols and a -magistrate’s name. But they often bear also the name of the maker, and -the Danish scholar Nilsson[788], who has made a thorough study of them, -is inclined to regard them as essentially the seals of private -manufacturers. The magistrate’s name may merely indicate the date: the -state symbol may mean that the state was the consignee, or that the -manufacturer enjoyed some sort of state protection, or was subjected to -state taxation and control. - -If then such was the history of the stamp as applied to bricks and wine -jars, we have a further reason for thinking that stamps as applied to -the precious metals may have originally been put on them by private -owners. May we not here have the true explanation of the marvellous seal -of Gyges’ ring? May not the owner of this ring have been the first -person to use his signet for stamping coins of metal, and may not this -fact be the origin of the stories about its marvellous powers? - -Whether this person was Gyges is another question. His claim to the ring -is not beyond dispute. We have seen already that it is sometimes -attributed to Midas. Even in the story as told by Plato the MSS. make -the hero “the ancestor of Gyges,” not Gyges himself, and the fact that -in other writers and elsewhere in the _Republic_[789] the ring is called -the ring of Gyges is not in itself decisive. Both the ring and its magic -powers may have passed from hand to hand. But if the evidence and -opinions that have been adduced in this chapter have any value, our -interpretation of the ring story does not depend on establishing Gyges -as the original owner. - -Let us now revert for a moment to the illuminating theory of Babelon -that the striking of coins was at first a private undertaking of -merchants or miners or bankers, and that the final step in the evolution -of a gold and silver coinage was reached only when this business of -stamping and issuing the pieces was taken over by the state. We are -entirely without record of the actual transference that the theory -implies. Babelon assumes that the government created the monopoly. This -chapter suggests a modification of Babelon’s view in one important -point, namely that it was not the government that made the monopoly, but -the monopoly that made the government. As in the case of Babelon’s own -main thesis, we are forced to trust largely to analogies. But the -analogies are striking, and they strike in two directions. We have first -the commercial or financial antecedents of the rulers of this period -both in Lydia and in various Greek states: and secondly we have the -history of later Lydian rulers and aspirants to the throne, notably -Croesus and Sadyattes, Cyrus and Pactyes, Xerxes and Pythes. The moral -of their stories is that no ruler could feel safe at Sardis until he had -secured some sort of financial supremacy. When we further consider that -Gyges was famous for his gold[790], and that his gold and his tyranny -are spoken of by Archilochus, probably in the same breath, then apart -from speculative interpretations of the story of the ring, there is at -least a clear possibility that the monopolist policy of Croesus and his -successors goes back at least to Gyges and perhaps even a generation or -so earlier, to some such ruler as Ardys or Spermos, and that it was the -monopoly in stamped pieces of electrum that brought the first tyrant to -the king’s palace and placed him on the throne[791]. - - - - - Chapter VI. _Argos_ - - - τὰν ἀρετὰν καὶ τὰν σοφίαν νικῶντι χελῶναι. - -[Illustration: Fig. 20. Early Aeginetan “tortoises.”] - -[Sidenote: “Tyranny” of Pheidon the legitimate sovereign “who created - for the Peloponnesians their measures” (Herodotus),] - -Our earliest account of the one tyrant of Argos is found in Herodotus -and runs as follows: “and from the Peloponnesus came Leokedes the son of -Pheidon the tyrant of the Argives, that Pheidon who created for the -Peloponnesians their measures and behaved quite the most outrageously of -all the Greeks, who having removed the Eleian directors of the games -himself directed the games at Olympia[792].” Pheidon belonged to the -royal house of Temenos[793], and appears to have succeeded to a -hereditary throne in the ordinary way. Nevertheless he is deliberately -classed by Aristotle as a typical tyrant[794]. - -Some years ago I suggested that it was Pheidon’s “invention” of measures -rather than his outrageous behaviour or his warlike achievements that -caused him to be regarded as a different kind of ruler from his -forefathers—as a tyrant instead of a king[795]. - -[Sidenote: and also, according to Ephorus, struck in Aegina the first - silver coins.] - -Herodotus speaks of him simply as the man who made their measures for -the Peloponnesians. But Ephorus and later writers declare that Pheidon -invented a system of weights as well as measures, and, most important of -all, that silver was first coined by him in Aegina[796]. The reign of -Pheidon probably covered the first third of the seventh century. Thus in -Greece Proper as in Asia Minor there is evidence for ascribing the -earliest coins to the earliest tyrant. [Sidenote: Pheidon the European -counterpart of Gyges.] If there is any weight in the Argive evidence, -then the accounts mutually confirm one another, and it becomes -distinctly improbable that the association of coinage and tyranny was a -mere accident. - -[Sidenote: The evidence for Pheidon is disputed. This chapter is devoted - to maintaining its credibility.] - -Unfortunately the evidence as regards Pheidon is all very much disputed. -The greater part of this chapter will therefore be devoted to examining -its credibility and endeavouring to show that the doubts that have been -cast upon it are not well founded, that on the most probable showing the -reign of Pheidon opened the epoch known as the age of the tyrants, that -Pheidon lived just about the time when the first coins were struck in -Aegina, and that the institution of the Aeginetan weight system was the -direct result of an Argive occupation of the island. - -[Sidenote: Date of earliest Aeginetan coins.] - -One or two points may be assumed to start with as generally admitted. -The Aeginetan “tortoises” (fig. 20) were the first coins struck in -European Greece[797], and they were first struck fairly early in the -seventh century[798]. The points that have been most disputed are the -date of Pheidon and his connexion with Aegina and the Aeginetan coinage. -[Sidenote: Evidence for the date of Pheidon:] It is the date that is the -real centre of the controversy, and it will be best to deal with it -first and to begin by briefly recalling the evidence and arguments. - -[Sidenote: (1) from genealogies:] - -(i) The later genealogies[799] which make Pheidon seventh from Temenos -and eleventh from Heracles and thus put him early in the ninth century -have been shown by Busolt[800] to be due to fourth century tamperings -with the pedigree of the royal house of Macedon. In ascribing the -foundation of the Macedonian dynasty to a certain Karanos, who according -to Theopompus was a son of Pheidon, according to Satyrus a son of -Pheidon’s father[801], they were influenced by the incurable Greek -belief in symmetry which required the Macedonian royal family to be as -old as that of its great rivals the Medes which latter, following -Ktesias, they dated from 884 B.C.[802]. - -(ii) The genealogy that makes Pheidon tenth from Temenos and thus puts -him about the middle of the eighth century can be traced back only to -Ephorus[803]. In other words, as already pointed out by Bury[804], its -credibility depends in great measure on that of the writer who is also -our earliest authority for the statement that Pheidon coined in -Aegina[805]. - -(iii) Yet a third statement as to Pheidon’s family is that of -Herodotus[806]. According to Herodotus Leokedes son of Pheidon was one -of the suitors of Agariste at Sicyon early in the sixth century. The -statement occurs in a plainly romantic setting, and must not be pressed -too far. It may however be fairly claimed as an argument against a date -as early as 750. Even admitting the possibility that παίς (son) in the -singular may be loosely used for ἀπόγονος (descendant)[807], yet it -remains highly unlikely that Herodotus would have mentioned Pheidon at -all in connexion with Leokedes if he regarded them as separated by over -150 years[808]. - -Lehmann-Haupt[809], who, in spite of all the difficulties just -summarized, dates Pheidon eighth Olympiad (748 B.C.)[810], imagines an -obscure Pheidon, father of Leokedes, and formulates as a characteristic -of Herodotus the practice of assigning the deeds of famous men to -obscure namesakes. Besides Pheidon he quotes only Philokypros, tyrant of -Soli and friend of Solon, whom he proceeds, in direct contradiction of -Herodotus[811], to differentiate from the father of the Aristokypros who -fell during the Ionic revolt. His view is discredited by the one -illustration that he quotes in its support. Solon’s young friend need -not have been born before 608 B.C., and the son of a man born in that -year might well be alive in 498 B.C. Even if Herodotus is mistaken on -this point, his mistake would only illustrate the comparatively narrow -margin of error to which his anachronisms on matters of this kind are -limited. - -There is yet another group of statements bearing on Pheidon’s pedigree. -Pausanias says that the last king of Argos was Meltas son of -Lakedes[812]. The latter is equated by Beloch[813] with the Leokedes of -Herodotus[814]. Meltas is said by Pausanias to have been tenth in -descent from Medon, grandson of Temenos. Pheidon, as has been noted -already, is described by Strabo as tenth in descent from Temenos -himself. Thus Strabo, Pausanias, and Herodotus might be taken as -mutually confirming one another, if we accept Herodotus literally, and -make Pheidon father of Leokedes and consequently grandfather of Meltas. -As there was still a king of Argos in 484 B.C.[815], and there is -nothing to show that the office did not continue well after that date, -Beloch’s argument brings Pheidon well down into the sixth century. But -as it allows only twelve generations from the Dorian invasion under -Temenos to the indeterminate date after 480 B.C. when kingship was -completely abolished, it only helps to emphasize the fact that Argive -royal pedigrees are not a safe guide for determining Pheidon’s -date[816]. - -[Sidenote: (2) from his interference at the Olympian games.] - -The assertion of Pausanias[817], that Pheidon interfered with the eighth -celebration of the Olympian games, is not to be reconciled with a -seventh century date. But serious doubts have been thrown on Pausanias’ -dating, which may very possibly have been influenced by the Macedonian -genealogies, in which case it is no confirmation of the date arrived at -by reckoning Pheidon tenth from Temenos. The arguments for emending -eighth to twenty-eighth are weighty[818]. Pausanias’ exact statement is -that “at the eighth Olympian festival the Pisatans called in Pheidon ... -and celebrated the games along with Pheidon[819].” But Strabo declares -it to be “more probable (ἐγγυτέρω τῆς πίστεως) that from the first -Olympiad till the twenty-sixth the presidency both of the temple and the -games was held by the Eleians[820].” Julius Africanus likewise knows -nothing of any disturbance at the eighth Olympiad, but records one at -the twenty-eighth. - -The difficulties in accepting the twenty-eighth Olympiad, as set forth -by Unger[821], are not very impressive. He argues that at the -twenty-eighth Olympiad the Eleians had arms[822], whereas Pheidon made -his attack “when the Eleians were without arms[823],” and that, as the -Pisatans celebrated the twenty-seventh Olympiad, Pheidon in the -twenty-eighth would have displaced not the Eleians, but the Pisatans. -But when Strabo says that the Eleians were without arms, he or his -source may mean that their Dymaean war left them unequipped for home -defence. Assume that this was so and that they were preoccupied with -their Dymaean war both in 672 B.C. and in 668 B.C., and the whole -situation is explained easily. At the twenty-seventh celebration the -Pisatans unaided might secure the presidency by a surprise attack. It -would be at the next festival, when the Eleians were forewarned, that -the Pisatans would need Pheidon’s help to displace them at Olympia. -Weaker still is Unger’s argument that a notice about Pheidon may have -fallen out in Eusebius under Olymp. VIII, as one has in the same -chronicle about the emperor Caligula. - -We may indeed with Mahaffy[824] and Busolt[825] doubt whether these -early parts of the Olympian victor lists are contemporary records. But -it is easy to be unduly sceptical. Mahaffy, for instance, is inclined to -argue that the Olympian lists cannot have existed in the fifth century -because they are not then used for purposes of dating. He assumes that -Hippias who made his edition of the list in 370 B.C. can have had little -more evidence at his disposal than Pausanias, who lived over five -hundred years later. Plutarch[826], whom he quotes as discrediting the -list, merely expresses an opinion which is no more final than that of -Mahaffy himself. If our chronological data are untrustworthy, we are -thrown back on Pheidon’s achievements for determining his date, a -position long ago maintained by C. Mueller[827]. Regarded as a fact of -indeterminate date Pheidon’s interference at Olympia is more likely to -have been remembered if it was not made so early as the close of the -eighth century, when the festival had not yet attained its subsequent -reputation[828]. - -[Sidenote: Pheidon probably contemporary with the earliest Aeginetan - coins.] - -The evidence as to Pheidon’s date is therefore quite compatible with the -statement that makes him the first to strike coins in Aegina. For if it -be allowed that he may have lived in the first half of the seventh -century, there would be nothing unique in his having his mint away from -his capital in an outlying but commercially important part of his -dominion. Ridgeway and Svoronos have already compared the Romans, who -struck their first coins in Campania[829], and the Ptolemies who coined -very largely in Cyprus[830]. - -[Sidenote: Did he strike them?] - -But had Pheidon anything to do with Aegina and its coinage? Against the -statements of Ephorus and later writers must be set the silence of -Herodotus, who makes no reference either to coins or to Aegina in his -account of Pheidon. This omission, combined with the diversity of views -as to Pheidon’s date, has led to a general distrust of Ephorus, so much -so that the majority of the most competent authorities are either -agnostics[831] or utter unbelievers[832]. - -Herodotus’ silence is not by itself a serious argument for rejecting the -additions of the later historians. It should be remembered that his -whole account of Pheidon in VI. 127 extends to barely four lines. He can -hardly be expected to state at all completely even the main facts about -so important a personality in so short a space. To assert, as has been -done recently[833], that Herodotus _knew_ nothing about a coinage issued -by Pheidon is to beg the question. - -To the fifth century Greek, for whom Herodotus wrote, the origin of the -system of weights on which the Aeginetan coins were struck may have been -of greater interest than the remoter question of an invention which they -doubtless all took for granted. Peloponnesian weights and measures stood -for the lack of standardization in all matters metrical from which -Herodotus and his hearers must have suffered daily. - -There is no need to pursue these criticisms in further detail. They -start with various assumptions as to Pheidon’s date. Some of them would -be found to be mutually destructive. Nearly all of them overestimate the -difficulties raised by the apparent lack of confirmation of Ephorus in -earlier writers. It is by no means certain that his statements about -Pheidon’s connexion with the Aeginetan coinage must be a fanciful -expansion of Herodotus VI. 127. There are in fact two lines of evidence -that point in quite the opposite direction. One of them rests on notices -about the Argive Heraeum supplemented by recent finds on the site; the -other is based on a new interpretation of a passage in the fifth book of -Herodotus. It will be necessary to examine in some detail the evidence -from these two sources. - -[Sidenote: A. Evidence from the Argive Heraeum.] - -In the famous temple of Hera, the Argive Heraeum, that lies between -Argos and Mycenae, there was preserved a dedication that was said to -have been made by Pheidon in commemoration of his coinage. The notice is -preserved only in the mediaeval _Etymologicum Magnum_. It runs: “Pheidon -the Argive was the first of all men to strike a coinage in Aegina, and -on account of this coinage he called in the spits (ὀβελίσκοι) and -dedicated them to the Hera of Argos.” There is nothing suspicious in -this notice. The word drachma means a handful, and according to Plutarch -a drachma is a handful of obols (spits or nails), which in early times -were used as money[834]. In modern times nails are said to have served -as a coinage in both Scotland and France[835]. Plenty of evidence is to -be found in antiquity for offerings of disused objects to the gods[836]. -The ultimate source for the statement of the _Etymologicum Magnum_ may -well be the official guide at the Heraeum itself. Temple traditions are -not always above suspicion. All the same the indications of a Pheidon -tradition preserved in the Argive Heraeum are valuable, because they -show a source from which Ephorus might very well have supplemented -Herodotus far older and more valuable than his own imagination. - -[Illustration: Fig. 21. Bundle of spits found in the Argive Heraeum.] - -This however does not end the evidence of the Argive Heraeum. Some -thirty years ago the site was excavated by the American School of -Archaeology at Athens. Among the finds was a bundle of iron spits or -rods about four feet long (fig. 21) which Svoronos[837] has plausibly -associated with the ὀβελίσκοι of the _Etymologicum Magnum_. - -The Americans ascribed the foundation of the Heraeum to the Mycenaean -period, so that the dedication of the spits could be put anywhere in the -three centuries that form the limit of controversy as to Pheidon’s date. -But more recently this dating has been shown to be mistaken by the -Germans who excavated Tiryns. Whole series of miniature vessels which -the Argive Heraeum excavators had regarded as Mycenaean were shown by -the Tiryns excavators to be seventh century or later, and when one of -them, Frickenhaus, visited the Argive Heraeum, he found fragments of -Geometric and proto-Corinthian pottery in positions which proved the -sherds to be older than the temple foundations. From this fact he argues -conclusively that the abundant series of dedications at the Heraeum -begin in the seventh century. Pheidon’s ὀβελίσκοι cannot therefore go -further back than that[838]. The Mycenaean objects from the Argive -Heraeum site must all come from a small secular settlement that preceded -the temple. The latter becomes possibly contemporary with Pheidon -himself. - -This is a fact of possible significance. It suggests that the Heraeum -may have been the religious centre of Pheidon’s imperial policy, a sort -of religious federal capital carefully placed away from the chief cities -of the Argolid much as the federal capital of Australia has been placed -away from the capitals of the various Australian states. It looks indeed -as though the analogy may have been closer still, and that Pheidon was -the builder of his federal capital. If so his date was some time, -probably early, in the seventh century. - -[Sidenote: B. Fresh evidence from Herodotus.] - -This ends the evidence of the Heraeum and brings me to the most -important section of my argument. We have just seen how little need -there is to mistrust Ephorus simply because he does not exactly -reproduce Herodotus. All the same the earlier writer is of course by far -the more reliable. The account of Pheidon’s coinage in Aegina would gain -enormously in credibility if any evidence for it could be found in the -pages of Herodotus. Modern writers without exception have taken it for -granted that no such evidence is to be found. In this I believe them to -have been mistaken. There is a passage in the fifth book which, though -it does not mention Pheidon’s name, I believe to describe the conquest -by him of Aegina and the institution as a result of that conquest of the -weight standard on which the earliest Aeginetan coins were struck. If my -explanation has not been anticipated, there is no reason for surprise. -The passage contains references to pottery, ships, dress, and jewellery, -and my interpretation of it is based on archaeological evidence much of -which has only quite recently become available. - -[Sidenote: Herodotus, V. 82 f. describes an Argive intervention in - Aegina,] - -In the passage of the fifth book which we are now to examine -Herodotus[839] is explaining the origin of the hatred that existed -between Athens and Aegina in 500 B.C. Aegina had once been subject to -Epidaurus[840]. Then the Aeginetans, having built triremes and made -themselves masters of the sea[841], revolted. Through their revolt they -got embroiled with the Athenians, who had at that time very close -relations with Epidaurus. At the suggestion of the Epidaurians, the -Athenians sailed against Aegina. The Aeginetans appealed to Argos, and -with the help of an Argive force that crossed undetected from Epidaurus, -utterly defeated the Athenians in a land battle on the island. The -various measures[842] taken in common by the Aeginetans and the Argives -immediately after the war suggest that Aegina, when she had revolted -from Epidaurus, became in some sort a confederate, or possibly a -subject, of Argos[843]. We may assume too that Argos secured some sort -of control over Epidaurus in the course of the war. Otherwise it is -inconceivable that an Argive force should have set out from Epidaurus -with the double purpose of aiding Epidaurus’ revolted subjects and -attacking those very Athenians, whose expedition against the island had -been suggested by the Epidaurians themselves[844]. The crushing defeat -that the Athenians sustained may have been due to the collapse of her -Epidaurian allies. - -One further point about Herodotus’ narrative should be noticed. There is -nothing in it to suggest that at the time when the Aeginetans revolted -from the Epidaurians, either of them was dependent on Argos. The -narrative points rather to a previous confederation or dominion in which -the chief cities were Epidaurus, Aegina, and not Argos but Athens. Are -there any indications as to when all this occurred? - -The reference is to a time considerably[845] previous to 500 B.C. Macan -thinks that the most probable date for the expedition to Aegina is -somewhere in the lifetime of Solon or Peisistratus[846]. [Sidenote: -generally ascribed to the first half of the sixth century,] He points to -various circumstances that certainly might well have led to a collision -between Athens and Aegina during that period[847]. All the same it is -difficult to accept a date within those limits. The Aeginetans are not -likely[848] to have been dependent on Epidaurus after it was conquered -by Periander, about 600 B.C.[849] If therefore the revolt from Epidaurus -and the Athenian invasion are incidents in one and the same struggle, -both must go into the seventh century. Macan prefers to assume a long -interval between these two events. But Herodotus gives no hint of one. -On the contrary, his narrative hangs excellently together as a -description of successive and correlated incidents in a single struggle. -Not only so, but even if the invasion be separated from the revolt, it -is difficult to believe that it occurred after 590. So crushing a defeat -for the Athenians, who themselves admitted that only one of their number -got back to Attica[850], could hardly have taken place in the time of -Solon or Peisistratus without being associated with their names. After -all, a fair amount is known about sixth century Athens. There are no -traces of any such overwhelming disaster, or of the inevitable set back -that would have followed it. The relations of Athens to Argos during the -period seem to have been friendly rather than the reverse. Peisistratus -had Argive mercenaries, not to speak of an Argive wife[851]. Argive -support of Peisistratus is of course quite consistent with hostility to -the government that Peisistratus overthrew. It has indeed been -suggested[852] that the Aeginetan expedition took place while -Peisistratus was in exile. But, apart from the entire absence of -evidence, and all the other difficulties involved by a sixth century -date, this suggestion means that Peisistratus sought a bodyguard and -wife in the most unpopular quarter imaginable, hardly a probable -proceeding on the part of a ruler so tactful and popular as Peisistratus -must have been. - -A date late in the seventh century is rendered unlikely by what is known -of Procles of Epidaurus[853], the father-in-law of Periander, who ruled -Epidaurus during the last part of the seventh century[854], apparently -as a dependent of the Corinthian tyrant, by whom he was eventually -deposed. C. Mueller indeed[855] claims Aegina for Procles, but only on -the more than dubious evidence of a more than dubious story of -Plutarch’s, which tells how Procles once used an “Aeginetan stranger” to -get rid of the corpse of a man whom he had murdered for his money[856]. - -[Sidenote: but more probably to be dated early in the seventh, as shown - by archaeological evidence on allusions in the narrative to:] - -On the whole the narrative seems to fall best into the first half of the -seventh century. That is the time that best suits the naval situation -during the war, and the effect that it is said to have had upon costume, -ornament, and pottery. As the archaeological evidence for all these -points is based largely on the evidence of the pottery, it will be best -to take the pottery first. - -[Sidenote: (i) pottery,] - -In the temple of Damia and Auxesia on Aegina it became the practice -(νόμος) after the war “to introduce into the temple neither anything -else Attic nor pottery, but to drink there henceforth only out of native -jars[857].” Herodotus mentions this embargo on Attic pottery only as -applied to the one temple on Aegina[858]. But he states that it was -observed by Argives as well as by Aeginetans, which points to the -possibility that the practice prevailed in Argos as well as Aegina. -Macan goes as far as to suggest that it is an “understatement and -pseudo-explanation of a measure or custom for the protection of native -ware from Attic competition[859].” The other measures recorded in this -connexion, the changes in Attic dress and in Peloponnesian brooches, -support Macan’s suggestion. But in the matter of dating he follows -earlier writers who, using very inadequate material, came to conclusions -which can now be shown to be improbable. They date this embargo in the -middle of the sixth century. But in Aegina at any rate Attic pottery -continued to be imported throughout the second half of the sixth -century, while in Argos, where the evidence is less decisive and -abundant, there is no sign of a cessation of Attic imports about 550 -B.C. On the other hand both in Argos and Aegina there does appear to be -an abrupt cessation of Attic imports early in the seventh century. As, -further, the general history of Greek pottery shows that an -Argive-Aeginetan embargo on Attic pottery would have had a strong -commercial motive early in the seventh century and none in the middle of -the sixth, there is a strong presumption that the date of the embargo -was not the middle of the sixth century but somewhere about the -beginning of the seventh. To examine the archaeological evidence here in -detail would take us too far from our main enquiry. It will be found -presented in full in an appendix[860]. - -[Sidenote: (ii) sea-power and ships,] - -The war was a great disaster for Athenian naval power. Now the period of -greatest eclipse for Athens from this point of view was the seventh -century. Throughout it there is no indication whatever of naval activity -at Athens, except a possible war against Mitylene. Even that must be put -at the earliest close on the year 600 B.C., and is to be regarded as -announcing the beginning of the new epoch of activity in the sixth -century[861]; and against it must be set the failure in the struggle -with Megara for Salamis[862]. This had not been the naval position of -Athens earlier. During the dark ages she appears to have been a -considerable naval power. A tradition preserved by Plutarch makes Athens -succeed Crete in the command of the sea[863]: naval power is implied in -Theseus’ expedition to Crete; a poem of Bacchylides[864], which is -illustrated by a vase painting of Euphronios[865], tells how Theseus -went to the depths of the sea to fetch up the ring of Minos, and the -story has been brought by S. Reinach into connexion with rings such as -those of Polycrates and the doges of Venice, and explained as -symbolizing the winning by Theseus of the sea which had been previously -the bride of Minos[866]. - -The date of these events must not be pressed. The period of this -sea-power is plainly the dark age that followed the breaking up of the -Cretan and Mycenaean civilization. It is the period of the pottery known -as Geometric, and the Athenian Geometric, the Dipylon ware, again and -again shows pictures of ships. Thirty-nine examples are quoted by -Torr[867], enough, as pointed out by Helbig[868], to prove the important -rôle played by the Athenian navy in the life of Athens of that age. The -Dipylon ships, as remarked twenty years ago by Helbig[869], show that -already in the eighth century Athens was preparing to found her power on -her navy. It requires some such catastrophic explanation as has just -been offered to account for her complete set back in the seventh. - -[Sidenote: (iii) dress.] - -One result in Athens of the reverse in Aegina, so Herodotus declares, -was a revolution in the dress of the Athenian women, who gave up the -Doric costume, which was made of wool and fastened with pins, and -adopted in its place the Ionic, which consisted of sewn garments made of -linen. The passage is a _locus classicus_ among writers on Greek dress, -and it must be at once admitted that nearly all of them accept a date -late in the first half of the sixth century[870]. So late a date seems -to me to be untenable. It can be reconciled neither with the statements -of Thucydides on the subject of Athenian dress[871], nor with the -evidence of extant monuments[872]. The sumptuary laws on women’s dress -passed by Solon in 594 B.C.[873] were plainly directed against the -Ionian costume. They show that it must have reached Athens by about 600 -B.C. and offer no evidence that it had not done so considerably earlier. -Bury dates the introduction of Ionian dress into Athens “c. 650 -(?)[874].” - -[Sidenote: After the war the Argives and Aeginetans make their brooches - “half as big again.”] - -Among the Aeginetans and Argives as a result of their victory over -Athens a change was introduced in what Herodotus calls the “measure” -(μέτρον) of Aeginetan and Argive brooches (περόναι). Herodotus states -that this change affected both the dedications at the temple of Damia -and Auxesia[875], and also the general manufacture and use. The way he -tells the story explains why he goes beyond the temple when speaking of -the pins, but does not do so in the case of the pottery. The exclusion -of Attic pottery from the Aeginetan temple, or rather the exclusive use -for temple purposes of local ware, was in Herodotus’ days a ritualistic -survival. The large brooches on the other hand had continued in general -use. “Now the women of Argos and Aegina even to my own days wore -brooches of increased size.” Very possibly Herodotus had himself noticed -them. It is the account of this change in the “measure” of the Aeginetan -and Argive brooches that confirms the connexion of Pheidon with the -origin of the Aeginetan coinage. - -The new practice was in Herodotus’ own words: “to make the brooches half -as big again as the then established measure.” It is probably -significant that, both before and after the change, the brooches have a -standard “measure.” The tendency of articles of jewellery in early -periods to be of a fixed weight is a familiar one. Numerous instances -are quoted in Ridgeway’s _Origin of Metallic Currency_[876]. Not only -so, but these fixed weights are repeatedly found corresponding with or -anticipating the coin standards of the places they belong to. - -It may be objected that the word μέτρον does not mean weight. This is so -when it is contrasted with σταθμός[877]; but it appears to have been -used also in a more comprehensive sense[878]. The Athenian -μετρονόμοι[879] must have inspected weights as well as measures. μέτρον -is presumably applied to both, and to a fifth century Greek there would -be no question of its referring to anything but weight when applied to -jewellery[880]. - -[Sidenote: The Aeginetan drachma was half as big again as the Attic.] - -The change introduced by the Argives and Aeginetans after driving the -Athenians from Aegina was to make the “measure” of their brooches half -as big again as what it had previously been. Now this is approximately -the relationship in weight of the earliest Aeginetan drachmae to the -earliest drachmae struck on the Euboeic standard. Later, in Herodotus’ -own times, the relative weights were four to three. But the earliest -Aeginetan drachmae weighed a little more than those of later -issues[881]. On the other hand, as stated by Percy Gardner[882] in -discussing Solon’s “augmentation” of the Athenian coins, the earliest -Attic or rather Euboeic drachma[883] weighed less than those of -post-Solonian times. The weight of the Aeginetan drachma as determined -from the early didrachms quoted above (p. 171, n. 6) is just over six -grammes, as compared with the 5·85 grammes of later issues, while that -of the earliest Attic Euboeic drachma as determined from the coins of p. -171, n. 8 is just over four grammes, as compared with the 4·26 grammes -of later issues[884]. - -Thus the original Aeginetan drachma seems to have been just half as -heavy again as the earliest Attic[885]. This ratio is accepted by -Ridgeway[886], who regards it as invented to make ten silver pieces -worth one gold when gold was fifteen times as precious as silver, while -later, when silver rose to be worth 3/40 of its weight in gold, the -silver pieces were slightly diminished in weight, in order that ten of -them might still be the equivalent of one of gold[887]. - -[Sidenote: Summary of the evidence of Herodotus.] - -Let us now return to the one passage of Herodotus, in which he refers by -name to the Argive tyrant. - -In that passage he speaks of Pheidon as “the man who made their measures -for the Peloponnesians[888].” The force of the definite article that -precedes the Greek μέτρα has not always been sufficiently stressed. More -than one recent writer begins his discussion of the passage by -translating τὰ μέτρα “_a_ system of measures.” The subsequent argument -has naturally suffered. τὰ μέτρα can be no other measures than those -associated with the Peloponnesus in Herodotus’ own days, namely those of -the famous Aeginetan standard, employed in particular for the coinage of -the island[889]. Other scholars have regarded the statement that Pheidon -struck the first coins in Aegina as merely an amplification by later -writers of these very words. They argue that “the measures” plainly -meant the Aeginetan standard, and so suggested the famous Aeginetan -coinage. This latter view assumes of course that the amplifications of -Ephorus are not to be found in Herodotus himself. But what are the -facts? The establishment of Aeginetan measures in the Peloponnesus are -alluded to by Herodotus not only in the passage about the Argive tyrant -in Book VI but also very possibly in the passage in Book V that -describes the early Argive expedition to Aegina. In this latter passage -the measures are said to have been the result of the expedition. Both -expedition and tyrant are probably to be dated early in the seventh -century. That is also the date to which numismatists generally assign -the first drachmae struck in Aegina, struck too on a standard that, like -that of our brooches, was half again as great as that previously in use. - -It is hard to avoid the inference that when the fourth century writers -say that Pheidon coined in Aegina, they are faithfully reporting a -genuine tradition. - -[Sidenote: Sceptical views on these chapters of Herodotus stated and - answered.] - -It has indeed been maintained that the whole Herodotean account of the -early relations of Argos, Aegina, and Athens is unhistorical[890]. The -arguments brought forward to support this destructive view are: (i) that -the episode is timeless and its timelessness must be due to its -unhistorical character, (ii) that it must be unhistorical because it -cannot, as alleged by Herodotus, have been the cause of the war of 487 -B.C., which must have been due to the natural rivalry of the two -neighbouring states. As regards the first of these two arguments, the -preceding pages have, it is hoped, shown that the episode is not -timeless: as regards the second, it is enough to point out that it -assumes that war cannot breed war, that no war can be due to two causes, -and that an incident cannot be historical if it is alleged as leading to -results that it cannot have in fact produced. The fact that arguments -such as these were accepted for publication in a periodical of high -repute less than a generation back shows how much the whole world of -scholarship was infected by the spirit of uncritical scepticism that has -left its mark in some quarters on that of the present age. - -Others again like Wilamowitz[891] regard the narrative of Herodotus V. -82–88 as simply a reflexion backwards of the state of affairs existing -in 487 B.C.[892], when Athens attacked Aegina, and the Aeginetans -“called to their aid the same people as before, the Argives[893].” They -argue that (i) the story is our only evidence for hatred between Athens -and Aegina much before 506 B.C., (ii) the Argive-Aeginetan brooches as -compared with the broochless Athenian costume[894], the embargo on Attic -pottery at the Aeginetan temple, and the posture of the kneeling statues -(pleading before the Athenian invaders) may all have been referred in -Herodotus’ days to the existing hatred and recent wars between Athens -and Aegina, (iii) Herodotus puts back the Athenian disaster into the -timeless period because the miracle and the change of costume required -an early date, and the story does not fit the war of 487 B.C., since the -famous Sophanes[895], who fought in it, lived till 464. Herodotus, they -say, gives no account of a disaster to the Athenian fleet in 487 because -he had used it up for this early reflexion. - -Of these points (i) is answered by the whole of this chapter, (ii) and -(iii) fall with (i), besides which (ii) contains many improbabilities, -_e.g._ that the pottery in an Aeginetan temple should without historic -reason have suggested to any fifth century Greek an early war with -Athens, while (iii) assumes an Athenian disaster in 487 B.C., whereas -Thucydides declares that Athens was successful in that war[896]. - -There is nothing suspicious in the Aeginetans having twice in two -hundred years attained some sort of thalassocracy, and having on both -occasions come as a result into collision with Athens. It is perfectly -natural for the Aeginetans on a second occasion to appeal to allies who -had previously helped them so effectively and with such profit to -themselves. Macan[897] observes that the Herodotean account of the feud -between Athens and Aegina is remarkably uninfluenced by contemporary -politics and interests. He suggests[898] dating the subjection of Aegina -to Epidaurus to the reign of Pheidon, and the revolt of the island from -Epidaurus to the time of Pheidon’s fall. But why in that case does the -account speak of a revolt from Epidaurus, if it was really a revolt from -the famous Argive tyranny? The whole narrative finds a more appropriate -setting if regarded as one chapter in the history of Pheidon himself. - -[Sidenote: Why Pheidon is not mentioned in them.] - -Only, why in this case is the name of Pheidon nowhere mentioned? It is -one thing to omit details in a biography four lines in length. It is -quite another to omit so prominent a name in a narrative that runs to -seven whole chapters. But the omission, though at first sight -surprising, is capable of explanation. The Herodotean story appears to -have been derived from the temple of Damia and Auxesia[899]. It was told -Herodotus not in connexion with any royal monument, but to explain -certain offerings of pottery and jewellery that he saw in the temple. -Not a single personal name occurs in the whole narrative, and there is -no particular reason why there should. There may actually have been -motives for not introducing them. The account of the events given to -Herodotus in the Aeginetan temple of Damia and Auxesia would naturally -not emphasize the part played by the Argive tyrant. The Athenian -version, to which also Herodotus alludes, would have still better reason -for trying to forget the name of Pheidon. If my whole interpretation of -these events is not entirely wrong, Pheidon dealt the Athenians what was -probably the most crushing blow they had ever received down to the days -when Herodotus wrote his history. The personal name may be omitted from -the same motive that made the Athenians speak of the Aeginetan drachma -as the “fat” drachma, which they are said to have done, “refusing to -call it Aeginetan out of hatred of the Aeginetans[900].” Sparta again -had taken sides against Pheidon at Olympia[901], and would have had no -interest in perpetuating the name of the man who had almost barred their -way to the hegemony of the Peloponnese. - -Ephorus’ account of Pheidon’s conquests and inventions is derived -neither from Attic nor from Aeginetan sources. As seen already[902] the -source of his statement about Pheidon coining in Aegina was most -probably the Argive Heraeum. Herodotus claims to use Argive sources, but -for him the war is primarily a matter between the Athenians and the -Aeginetans, whose subsequent hatred of one another it is intended to -explain. Thus we appear to have three rival or even hostile traditions -confirming one another, so that the variety of sources adds in a real -way to the credibility of the resultant narrative. - -[Sidenote: Pheidon and Aegina, further evidence from Ephorus: Pheidon - recovered the lot of Temenos, which included Aegina.] - -The notices about the coinage are not the only evidence for associating -Pheidon with Aegina. According to Ephorus “he completely recovered the -lot of Temenos, which had previously been split into several -parts[903].” Temenos appears in the genealogies as great great grandson -of Heracles, and founder of the Dorian dynasty at Argos[904]. He and his -sons and his son-in-law between them are represented as securing the -greater part of the North-east Peloponnese. Aegina fell to his -son-in-law Deiophontes, who went to the island from Epidaurus[905]. - -The operations described in Herodotus V. 82–88, by which the Argives -crossed from Epidaurus and drove the Athenians out of Aegina and put an -end to the Epidaurians being tributary to Athens[906], are almost beyond -doubt to be identified with the recovery by Argos of the portion of the -lot of Temenos that had been secured by Deiophontes. - -[Sidenote: Traces of this recovery in other passages of Herodotus.] - -It is true that this account of the recovery of the lot of Temenos is -first certainly met with in Strabo, whose authority is only the fourth -century Ephorus. But there are hints that Ephorus is here to be trusted. -There is the evidence of Herodotus that from an unspecified earlier date -down to about 550 B.C. the Argives had possessed the whole east coast of -the Peloponnesus and “the island of Cythera and the rest of the -islands[907].” The most likely period for Argos to have acquired this -territory is the reign of Pheidon. Pheidon according to Strabo[908] “had -deprived the Spartans of the hegemony of the Peloponnese,” and it is the -Spartans who shortly before Croesus asked for their help, had wrested -from the Argives “Cythera and the rest of the islands.” About 668 B.C., -_i.e._ probably in Pheidon’s reign, the Argives had beaten the Spartans -in the battle of Hysiae, which decided the possession of the strip of -coast land south of the Argolid[909]. - -Aegina is not mentioned in these proceedings, but C. Mueller may be -right in including it among “the rest of the islands[910].” The Hysiae -campaign is roughly contemporary with the second Messenian war, in which -Argos took part against the Spartans[911], and of which indeed it may -have been an incident. Now in that war the Samians took part by sea -against the Argives[912], and it is natural to connect this action of -theirs with their repeated attacks on Aegina in the days of the Samian -King Amphikrates, at some period indefinitely before the reign of -Polycrates. The Samians were certainly a naval power in the first half -of the seventh century. The four triremes built for them in 704 B.C. -marked for Thucydides an epoch in naval history[913]. About 668 B.C. -Kolaios the Samian made his famous voyage beyond the Straits of -Gibraltar to the Spanish seaport of Tartessus, a voyage that implies -much previous naval enterprise on the Samians’ part. The rivalry with -Aegina was probably commercial. Kolaios and his crew returned from the -“silver rooted streams” of the Tartessus river[914], having “made the -greatest profits from cargoes of all Greeks of whom we have accurate -information, excepting Sostratos the Aeginetan: for it is impossible for -anyone else to rival him[915].” Samian attacks on Aegina are thus -particularly likely to have happened about the time of the second -Messenian war. - -A century ago C. Mueller[916] argued that some event or other connecting -Samos with Aegina must have been closely connected with the revolt of -Aegina from Epidaurus, since the revolt was described in the _History of -Samos_ of the Samian historian Duris (born about 340 B.C.)[917]. From -this he proceeds to advocate a date for the revolt not very long before -the war between Samos and Aegina of 520 B.C. Arguments based on the laws -of digression observed by a writer whose works are known to us only in a -few fragments need to be used with caution. If Duris is any indication -whatever for the date of the revolt, he leaves an open choice between -the time of the war of 520 B.C. and that of the days of King -Amphikrates; and as between these two the evidence shows that the -earlier is probable while the latter is almost impossible. - -As independent evidence these hints would be of scarcely any value. As -confirmation of a definite but disputable statement their value is -considerable. - -[Sidenote: Summary of Pheidon’s activities according to Strabo (= - Ephorus).] - -The recovery of ancestral domains is a favourite euphemism among -military conquerors for their policy of annexation. The chronology, both -relative and absolute, of Strabo’s summary of Pheidon’s career has every -appearance of authenticity. Pheidon first recovers the lot of Temenos, -then “invents” his measures and coinage, and after that attempts to -expand eastwards and southwards to secure the whole inheritance of -Heracles, or in other words aims at the suzerainty of the whole -Peloponnese, and to that end celebrates the Olympian games. This last -event is probably to be dated 668 B.C. The coinage must be put -indefinitely earlier in his reign, a perfectly reasonable date on -numismatic and historical grounds, and the recovery of the lot of -Temenos a few years earlier still. - -The date thus reached is confirmed by the histories of the two other -leading cities of this part of the Peloponnese, Sicyon and Corinth. - -[Sidenote: Pheidon and other parts of the lot of Temenos: (i) Sicyon.] - -Sicyon formed part of the lot of Temenos, and was held by his son -Phalkes[918]. About 670 B.C. the city fell under the tyranny of the able -and powerful family of Orthagoras, whose policy was marked by extreme -hostility to Argos[919]. Pheidon plainly can have had no footing in -Sicyon during the rule of the Orthagorids. But the unusual stability and -popularity of the tyranny at Sicyon have often been explained, not -without reason, as due to its popular anti-Dorian policy. During the -second Messenian war, which Pausanias dates 686–668 B.C.[920], so that -the rise of Orthagoras coincides with its conclusion, the Sicyonians -appear to have acted in close co-operation with the Argives[921]. The -position and policy of the Sicyonian tyrants becomes particularly -comprehensible if they had risen to power as leaders of a racial -uprising that put an end in the city to a Dorian ascendancy that dated -originally from the days of Temenos[922] and had been revived by -Pheidon[923]. - -[Sidenote: (ii) Corinth.] - -Whether Corinth formed part of the lot of Temenos is uncertain. Probably -it did. Strabo and Ptolemy exclude the city from the Argolid[924]. But -on the other hand Homer speaks of it as being “in a corner of horse -rearing Argos[925],” and Pausanias states that “the district of Corinth -is part of Argolis[926],” and that he believes it to have been so in -Homeric times[927]. The conflicting statements of these excellent -authorities are best reconciled by supposing them to be referring to -different periods. If this is so, and if, as well might be, all the -domains of Homeric Argos passed to its first Dorian lord, then Corinth -formed part of the lot of Temenos. A Temenid Corinth is perhaps implied -in Apollodorus[928], where Temenos, the two sons of Aristodemus, and -Kresphontes “when they had conquered the Peloponnese, set up three -altars of Zeus Patroos and sacrificed on them and drew lots for the -cities. The first lot was Argos, the second Sparta, the third Messene.” - -For connexions between Pheidon and Corinth we have only a story told by -Plutarch and a Scholiast on Apollonius Rhodius[929] of which the salient -points are that (_a_) Pheidon tries to annex Corinth; (_b_) the -Bacchiads and Archias are the pro-Argive party; (_c_) the fall of the -Bacchiads (which led to the rise of the tyrant Cypselus) meant the -overthrow of Argive influence. - -So far the story is all of a piece, and supports the view that the -simultaneous establishment of Cypselus in Corinth and Orthagoras in -Sicyon may have been part cause and part result of the fall of Pheidon -and the breaking up again of the lot of Temenos. Such a suggestion -harmonizes well with the friendship that existed between the Corinthian -and Sicyon tyrants[930]. - -There are however chronological difficulties in this interpretation of -the Pheidon Archias story. In the story (i) the fall of the Bacchiads is -made contemporary with the foundation of Syracuse, _i.e._ it must -presumably be dated about 734 B.C.[931]; (ii) Pheidon is put some time -before this event, his contemporary Habron being grandfather of Archias’ -favourite Actaeon: the Marmor Parium enters Pheidon before Archias. - -In a highly romantic narrative like that of Archias and Actaeon the last -thing to be looked for is a reliable and exact chronology. Impossible -dates may mean impossible statements; but on the other hand they may -mean merely a confusion of facts of different dates, or again, the facts -may be coherent, and the dates just simply wrong. - -In the present case, except for the relative dating of Archias and -Pheidon, the historic background is perfectly coherent, if the events -are put early in the seventh century. To accept the 750 date for Pheidon -sets him right in relation to Archias, but leaves the rest of the story -in the air. There is indeed always the refuge of assuming a double -banishment of the Bacchiads. But the idea of a double banishment, traces -of which might easily be discovered by the reduplicating school of -historians, is deservedly suspect, and may have arisen from a double -dating due to double dating of Pheidon. If there really were two -banishments, the story better suits the second. - -Neither Plutarch nor the Scholiast on Apollonius gives any absolute -dates; and those of the Parian Marble, which does, are impossible. The -Marble dates Pheidon 895 B.C. and Archias 758. Pheidon is also indeed -made contemporary with an Athenian who according to Castor held the -office of king from 864 to 846 B.C.[932] From 846 to 758 is a possible, -though improbably long interval between Pheidon and Archias, if as the -story tells us, the latter had as favourite the grandson of one of -Pheidon’s contemporaries; but even so the dating is so unsatisfactory, -that the latest editor of the Parian Marble[933] has suggested -transposing Archias and Pheidon. But, apart from other difficulties, the -resultant early date for Archias is altogether against the evidence. -There is no need to put him back into the ninth century merely because -it is not unlikely that Greeks at that period were already making their -way to Sicily. The antedating of Pheidon has already been accounted for, -and he appears to have taken back Archias with him part of the way. - -The date of Archias is a problem any way. But it is not difficult to -suggest a possible chronology. Pheidon’s fall[934] was probably rapid (a -proof of his hubris). His rise was probably slow. Being a hereditary -monarch, he may well have ruled for fifty years, from about 715 to 665 -B.C. It was early in his career that he began to carry out his designs -on Corinth. Archias, who had founded Syracuse in 734, gave him support. -We are told no details, but the alliances of the period of the second -Messenian war and the naval struggle in the Saronic Gulf must have -supplied abundant motives and inducements. Bacchiad government under -Argive protection continued till Pheidon fell, which meant also the fall -of the Bacchiads themselves. They withdrew to the far west. Demaratus -penetrated as far as Tarquinii. Large numbers doubtless settled at -Syracuse. The order of events just outlined coincides entirely with the -extant narratives, except in the one matter of Syracuse, and there the -divergence is very comprehensible. The founder of Syracuse had supported -Pheidon. Pheidon’s fall had led to a great influx of pro-Argive -Corinthians into Syracuse, and threw Archias back entirely onto his -Sicilian colony. If this is what really happened, it would not be -surprising if the fall of Pheidon came to be regarded as having led to -the original foundation of Syracuse. - -[Sidenote: Pheidon of Corinth: is he identical with the Argive?] - -The chief doubt however as to the historical truth of the Argive -tyrant’s interference in Corinth is caused by certain references to a -Corinthian Pheidon, described by Aristotle as “one of the earliest -lawgivers[935].” When an Argive Pheidon is reported as making his -appearance in Corinthian history, is it a mistake due to the confusing -of two separate personalities? If two existed, they were unquestionably -confused. A Pindar Scholiast says that “a certain Pheidon, a man of -Corinth, invented measures and weights[936].” - -But there is an alternative possibility. The Corinthian Pheidon may be -only one aspect of the Argive: this is suggested by the Pindar Scholiast -later in the same ode, where he says that “the Pheidon who first struck -their measures (κόψας τὸ μέτρον) for the Corinthians was an -Argive[937].” Too much stress must not be laid on such very confused -statements[938]. At best they can only corroborate other and better -evidence. This however is not altogether lacking. When Karanos, the -kinsman of Pheidon, went to Macedonia and occupied Edessa and the lands -of the Argeadae[939], Bacchiads from Corinth settled near by among the -Lynkestai[940]. - -A lawgiver who was “one of the earliest” can have arisen in Corinth only -before the establishment of the tyranny in 657 B.C. On the other hand -lawgivers seem to have been mainly a seventh century phenomenon in -Greece, and the most natural time for one to have been appointed in -Corinth is when the Bacchiad nobility was losing its ascendancy, a -process which may be imagined as beginning early in the seventh century -or at the end of the eighth. Plutarch describes Pheidon’s designs on -Corinth as formed at the beginning of his career. Everything points to -the Argive tyrant having had a long reign. There is nothing improbable -in the supposition that the rival factions in Corinth invited to act as -their lawgiver a young sovereign of unusual ability who ruled a city of -great traditions but not at the time particularly powerful[941]. I have -already suggested the course taken by events in Corinth after Pheidon -had once secured a position in the city. One passage remains to be -quoted that makes it still more probable both that the Corinthian -lawgiver was the Argive tyrant, and that events in Corinth took -something like the course that I have suggested. According to Nicholas -of Damascus[942] Pheidon out of friendship went to the help of the -Corinthians during a civil war: an attack was made by his supporters, -and he was killed[943]. An intimate connexion from the beginning of his -career with the great trading and manufacturing city of the Isthmus -would go far to explain the commercial and financial inventiveness that -was the distinguishing feature of this royal tyrant[944]. - - - - - Chapter VII. _Corinth_ - - - ἡ μὲν δὴ πόλις ἡ τῶν Κορινθίων μεγάλη τε καὶ πλουσία διὰ παντὸς - ὑπῆρξεν, ἀνδρῶν τε ηὐπόρησεν ἀγαθῶν εἴς τε τὰ πολιτικὰ καὶ εἰς - τὰς τέχνας τὰς δημιουργικάς. STRABO VIII. 382. - -[Sidenote: Mercantile and marine developments at Corinth quoted by - Thucydides to illustrate the conditions that led to the rise - of tyrannies.] - -In the passage of Thucydides[945] in which he associates the origin of -tyranny with the acquisition of wealth, one other development is -mentioned as characteristic of the age. “Greece began to fit out fleets -and took more to the sea.” - -If the views expressed in the last chapter are not entirely mistaken, -then in Greece Proper the earliest phases of all these developments, in -politics, in industry, and in commerce by land and sea, are all to be -associated with Pheidon of Argos. But on the same showing Pheidon was a -man born rather before his time and not quite in the right place. - -The town marked out by its situation[946] to develop the new tendencies -to the fullest was Corinth, and it is in fact from Corinth that -Thucydides draws his illustration, mentioning in this connexion the -shipbuilding of the Corinthian Ameinokles about 704 B.C. and the naval -battle between Corinth and Corcyra of about 664 B.C.[947] He says -nothing about Corinthian tyrants, but the description of the situation -at Corinth is simply a paraphrase of that of the general situation that -led to tyrannies[948]. Corinth is chosen to exemplify the normal course -of things in a seventh century Greek town, and it may be taken as -certain that Thucydides regards the tyranny at Corinth as the outcome of -the mercantile and maritime developments described in the passage just -quoted. - -Only, what was the personal relationship of the tyrants to the new -developments? - -[Illustration: Fig. 22. Corinthian vase found at Corinth.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 23. Corinthian terra cotta tablet depicting a potter -at his wheel.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 24. Corinthian terra cotta tablet depicting the -interior of a kiln.] - -[Sidenote: Seventh century Corinth was also a great industrial centre, - especially for pottery.] - -Before attempting to answer this question, one important addition may be -made to Thucydides’ picture of the state of things in the city when the -tyranny arose. Corinth was not engaged only in commerce and shipping. -She was also a great industrial centre. In the chapter on Argos reasons -have been given for thinking that the tyrant Pheidon flourished just at -the time when pottery of the style called for want of a better name -proto-Corinthian was enjoying a great vogue in a great part of the Greek -world, that much at least of this ware was made in Pheidon’s dominions, -and that Pheidon took political measures to crush or cripple rival -centres. Towards the middle of the seventh century proto-Corinthian ware -was eclipsed by a new style, which with good reason has been named -Corinthian[949]. This new style became so popular that the invention of -the potter’s wheel was ascribed to a Corinthian[950]. Corinthian vases -of this period show one of the most decorative and distinctive styles of -pottery that has ever been invented. The style of decoration somewhat -recalls oriental carpets, and it was long ago plausibly suggested that -oriental carpets or tapestries furnished the models for the Corinthian -vase painters[951]. Two jugs in this style, one from Corinth -itself[952], the other from Corneto (Tarquinii), are shown in figs. 22 -and 34. Votive tablets of the sixth century B.C. have been found at -Corinth that depict various stages of the manufacture. Two are here -reproduced (figs. 23, 24). This very distinctive pottery made its way -over a great part of the Greek world[953]. It has been found in large -quantities all over Sicily, South Italy and Etruria, in many parts of -Greece Proper, and in many places further east[954]. - -[Sidenote: Cypselus becomes tyrant at the height of these developments.] - -Cypselus established himself as tyrant in 657 B.C. at the height of -these great developments of Corinthian industry, trade, and shipping. It -has been noticed by Busolt[955] that 657 is also the year of the -conquest of Sardis by the Cimmerians. The disturbances in Asia Minor may -have enhanced the importance of the western trade, in which Corinth was -particularly concerned[956]. They may incidentally have removed, at -least for the time being, a very powerful commercial rival, since -Corinth and Lydia appear to have been engaged in much the same -industries, namely weaving, dyeing, metallurgy, horse rearing and the -making of ointments, in addition to pottery, a fact that can hardly have -been accidental[957], and points to Corinth having been influenced by -Lydia. Both before and after the Cimmerian invasion Lydia and Corinth -appear to have been on excellent terms[958]: but this would not prevent -Corinthian merchants from growing more prosperous through Lydia’s -troubles[959]. - -[Sidenote: Cypselus and the beginnings of Corinthian coinage.] - -Whether the rise of Cypselus had any connexion with the beginnings of -Corinthian coinage is a matter of dispute. Busolt[960] dates the -earliest issues some half century later than the establishment of the -tyranny. Head[961] on the other hand makes the coinage and the tyranny -begin approximately together and he is supported by Percy Gardner[962], -who dates the earliest coins of Corinth in the early part of the seventh -century but after 665 B.C. - -[Illustration: Fig. 25. Coins of Corinth.] - -If, then, as seems probable, the English numismatists are nearer the -truth than the German, the first issues of “colts,” as the coins were -colloquially called from the winged horse that they bore, may have -played their part in helping Cypselus to the tyranny. The traces of -Lydian influence support this view. But on the other hand Corinth, whose -trade was so preponderatingly with the west, may, like its colony -Corcyra, have felt the need of a coinage only comparatively late. Where -the main facts are so obscure and particulars are completely wanting it -is idle to carry speculation further. - -For evidence as to Cypselus’ personal relationship to the commercial -developments of his age we must look elsewhere. Some modern writers have -indeed despaired of recovering any picture of the personal history of a -ruler who is variously described by our best authorities as having ruled -mildly[963] and with bloodthirsty severity[964]. [Sidenote: His personal -relationship when tyrant to the commercial developments of his age.] -This attitude is quite unnecessary. Both statements are in themselves -quite credible as contemporary accounts of the same regime from -different points of view. Still, by themselves they do not take us very -far. Fortunately we are better informed in other directions. - -Of the Corinthian colonies in Western Greece, that lined the trade route -to Sicily and Italy and the Furthest West, Leukas, Ambracia and -Anaktorion were founded by Cypselus[965]. Leukas was converted by him -from a peninsula into an island for the greater convenience of -navigation[966]. - -Cypselus is said to have taxed his subjects heavily. This statement is -taken from the pseudo-Aristotelian _Oeconomica_[967], a work of no great -authority for our early period. The tax is associated by Suidas[968] -with the dedication of a colossus of beaten gold which “Didymus says was -made by Periander” (not Cypselus) “with the object of checking the -Corinthians in their luxury and arrogance.” Theophrastus, so Suidas also -states, called the statue the colossus not of Cypselus but of the sons -of Cypselus (Κυψελιδῶν). The statement of the _Oeconomica_ must -therefore be taken with reserve. But the story of Cypselus’ heavy -taxation states also that the tyrant made his subjects work and prosper -and able to pay the taxes[969]. - -[Sidenote: Personal relationships of his son Periander to these same - developments.] - -Whatever the truth about the colossus the fact remains that the fame of -Cypselus was largely eclipsed by that of his son and successor -Periander, who was actually claimed by some writers as one of the seven -sages of early Greece[970]. This is unfortunate when we are searching -for origins, since Periander is said to have changed the character of -the sovereignty[971]. Even if the authorities who made this statement -are not particularly good, still it must be taken as in some part true. -The son born in the purple can never succeed exactly to the position of -the father who founded the house. Luckily however we are told the nature -of Periander’s change. He regarded himself as a soldier and sought to -make Corinth a great military power, whereas Cypselus had been a man of -peace with a peaceful policy[972]. So far therefore as Periander’s -policy was not directly or indirectly military, there is no need to -assume a break with that of his father. - -He maintained and enlarged the colonial empire of the city[973]. As -regards Corinthian trade under Periander we are told that his public -revenues were all derived from its taxation[974]: but everything shows -that he did not follow the Bacchiads and tax it ruthlessly. Rather he -seems to have aimed at increasing his revenues by fostering commerce. -Corinthian shipping, with which the trade of the city was inseparably -bound up, certainly owed much to him. “He built triremes and plied both -seas[975].” This last statement seems intended to contrast Periander -with his father, whose activities had been mainly in the west. Periander -on the other hand is found acting in close concert with Thrasybulus the -tyrant of Miletus[976]. He has been suspected of slave-dealing with -Lydia[977], and acted as arbitrator between that state and Miletus[978]. -He had a nephew who bore the name of a king of Egypt[979]. In order the -better to “ply both seas” he is said to have wanted to cut a canal -through the Corinthian Isthmus[980]. Here too he was following in the -footsteps of his father who had “velificated” Leukas. - -It is interesting therefore to notice the emphasis laid on Periander’s -wealth[981], and to recall the social legislation attributed to him by -Nicolaus Damascenus, according to whom the tyrant “forbad the citizens -to acquire slaves and live in idleness, and continually found them some -employment[982].” Heraclides[983] and Diogenes Laertius (quoting Ephorus -and Aristotle)[984] state that he did not allow anybody and everybody to -live in the city. Their statement is capable of many interpretations. It -may mean that Periander sought to control labour in the city or to -prevent the rural population from quitting the land for the superior -attractions of life in the great industrial centre. - -In short from first to last the tyranny at Corinth is seen taking an -active part in guiding the industrial, commercial and maritime -activities of the city[985]. This however is what might be expected from -any able government at the period, and nobody has ever questioned the -Cypselids’ ability. The previous government, that of the aristocracy of -the Bacchiads, had “exploited the market with impunity[986],” and very -possibly this short-sighted policy had hastened and helped their -fall[987]. - -[Sidenote: Before he became tyrant Cypselus was probably polemarch,] - -But how precisely were they overthrown? What was the career of Cypselus -previous to his obtaining the tyranny? - -According to Nicolaus Damascenus, who based himself largely on the -fourth century Ephorus[988], Labda, the mother of Cypselus, belonged to -the Bacchiad aristocracy, but owing to a personal deformity[989] she had -married beneath her. Her husband, Eetion, is variously said to have been -descended from the pre-Hellenic Lapithae of Thessaly[990] and from a -non-Dorian stock of Gonussa above Sicyon[991]. In any case, as observed -by How and Wells[992], Eetion belonged to the pre-Dorian “Aeolic” -population of Corinth[993]. The Bacchiad aristocracy was extremely -exclusive. Its members married only among themselves. Consequently the -official oracles prophesied evil from this union, and when a son was -born of it, the government sent agents to destroy the child. But the -infant melted the hearts of its would-be murderers, and instead of -killing it they went back and reported that they had done so. The infant -was sent away by its parents to Olympia, and was brought up first there -and then at Cleonae. Encouraged by a Delphic oracle Cypselus returned to -Corinth, became very popular, was elected polemarch, and made himself -still more popular by refusing to imprison citizens and remitting in all -cases his part of their fines. Finally he headed a rising against the -unpopular Bacchiads, killed Patrokleides, who was king at the time, and -was made king in his stead. He ruled mildly, neither maintaining a -bodyguard nor losing the people’s favour[994]. - -Such is the account given by Nicholas of Damascus. For the greater part -of it we have no earlier authority. But once more we must be on our -guard against too hasty scepticism. Ephorus, who is generally admitted -to have been the source of this account, was not further removed from -Cypselus than this age is from Cromwell. Cypselus was the foremost man -of his age in all Greece. We need to be very sceptical of such -scepticism as that of Busolt[995], who argues that Cypselus cannot have -been polemarch before he became tyrant because if his parentage was not -known he would not have been eligible, while if it was he would not have -been elected[996]. As pointed out many years ago by Wilisch[997], such -arguments are dangerous when applied to times of which so little is -known. The aristocracy which fell in 657 B.C. may have begun to totter -some time earlier. Given the requisite gaps in our knowledge, Busolt’s -line of argument might be equally well used to discredit the received -tradition about the Victorian age in England on the ground that it -contains the highly improbable statement that the leader of the -aristocratic party was an Italian Jew. - -Ephorus seems to have been used by Aristotle[998]. It would be rash -indeed to follow Busolt[999] and agree that such a source may yet be -valueless. Aristotle is not to be treated in this way. The whole -character of his work forces us to start with the assumption that he had -some idea of the difference between myth and historical tradition. We -always know the reasons why modern scholars are sometimes inclined to -discredit him. We do not always know the reasons that led Aristotle to -accept as facts what he so accepts. What we do know is that the material -on which he based his statements was far more ample than that which is -now at our disposal. Even for a period so comparatively remote from him -as the seventh century B.C. Aristotle must have been able to collect -much evidence of one sort or another to confirm him alike in his doubts -and his beliefs[1000]. - -For eighth century Corinth Aristotle and his contemporaries -probably[1001] had the poems of the Corinthian Eumelos, a ποιητὴς -ἱστορικός[1002] who flourished about 750 B.C. and wrote among other -works an epic called Κορινθιακά. A prose history of Corinth (Κορινθία -συγγραφή) was also ascribed to him. The ascription is doubted by -Pausanias[1003], not without reason, but it may still have been a -document of some value and antiquity. The same is true of the “didactic -poem in two thousand lines” ascribed by Diogenes Laertius to Periander -himself[1004]. We are learning to take our ancient records more on their -face value than was done by our grandfathers in the nineteenth century. -The classical historians, using the word in its widest sense, are still -suffering from the reaction against the doctrine of verbal inspiration. - -The story of the infant Cypselus is put by Plutarch[1005] into the mouth -of a certain “Chersias the poet,” who is represented as having during a -banquet given by Periander “mentioned others whose lives had been saved -when despaired of and in particular Cypselus the father of Periander.” -One of the sceptics[1006] has recently accepted this Chersias as -historical and imagined Plutarch as here making use of a poem of his -which he proceeds to explain as a fiction invented to give an appearance -of legitimacy to the Cypselids. The explanation is quite gratuitous. It -is true that Diogenes Laertius[1007] speaks of Periander as “of the race -of the Heraclids.” But Chersias in Plutarch does not mention even the -parents of Cypselus, much less his remote ancestors, and there is no -evidence that he had them in mind[1008]. The poem itself is a doubtful -item. The only inference to be drawn from Plutarch is that to his -readers the poem (assuming its existence) probably seemed in keeping -with the scene. It is however well to be reminded that even Plutarch had -much more literary material to draw from for this early period than have -the moderns. - -On the whole therefore the safest attitude towards the narrative of -Nicolaus will be one of benevolent agnosticism. No doubt he had a -tendency to rationalize half or wholly mythical stories. It is not -improbable that he did this to some extent in his account of the infant -Cypselus with which we can compare the version of Herodotus. But when he -makes a simple statement of commonplace fact, as, for instance, that -Cypselus was polemarch before he became tyrant, the most prudent and the -most critical course is to accept it as probably true[1009]. The reason -why the record of this fact was preserved is not far to seek. The fourth -century historians seized on the name as evidence that Cypselus was in -fact as well as in name a ruler of the same order as Dionysius, who -started his career as a military demagogue. [Sidenote: but that is no -evidence of military power. Cypselus cannot have been a military -despot.] But the context shows that the polemarch was not in this case a -military officer[1010], and we know by implication that Cypselus was not -a warlike person, for the record of how Periander changed the character -of the government goes on to say that he _became_[1011] warlike. And, as -remarked long ago by Schubring[1012], if the tenure of the polemarchy is -historical, still it was not the means by which Cypselus reached the -tyranny, but rather like the murder of the Bacchiad Patrokleides, a sign -and token that he was already in a position to seize it. [Sidenote: What -then was the basis of his power? The only possible evidence is to be -found in the story] Nicolaus therefore brings us little nearer to -understanding the basis of the future tyrant’s power. Our only hope of -doing this lies in Herodotus, who tells the story of the infant Cypselus -with certain details omitted by Nicolaus but which probably contain the -essence of the story. According to Herodotus[1013] Cypselus was the -child from the cypsele in which as an infant his mother had concealed -him from his would-be murderers. [Sidenote: which makes Cypselus the -child from the cypsele.] If we are to believe Plutarch, the story of the -cypsele could still in his days be traced back to the days of -Periander[1014]. It is easy to point out[1015] that we are here up -against a widespread story of which different versions have been -attached to such different names as Sargon of Akkad (_c._ 3800 -B.C.[1016]), Moses, Romulus and Cyrus[1017]. But even if we accept a -common origin for all these stories, we are not very much further on. We -should still have to determine why and how Cypselus found a place in the -series. [Sidenote: What is a cypsele? Not, in spite of some ancient and -modern authorities, either an ark or a wooden chest.] But it must not be -too hastily assumed that the cypsele of Cypselus has anything at all to -do with the ark that Pharaoh’s daughter found on the banks of the -Nile[1018] or the “alueus” discovered by the shepherd Faustulus on the -banks of the Tiber. In both these cases[1019] the vessel could float and -was discovered by a river side. Cypselus was not discovered. That is the -whole point of the story. He was not exposed in a river or sea like -Romulus or Perseus. And it is more than doubtful whether a cypsele has -any connexion whatever with an alueus or ark. It is true that they are -more or less identified by our ancient authorities. Pausanias[1020], who -wrote his guide to Greece in the second century A.D., professed to have -seen at Olympia the very cypsele in which Cypselus had been hidden and -from which he was said to have got his name. It was a coffer (λάρναξ) of -wood and ivory elaborately carved. The description leaves no doubt that -it was of archaic Corinthian workmanship of the time of the tyrants or -not much later[1021]. But it is extremely doubtful whether this carved -box was a cypsele or had any original connexion with the cypsele story. -Plato[1022], Aristotle[1023], and Plutarch[1024] all refer to the -dedications of the house of Cypselus without alluding to this object. -Herodotus says nothing about the cypsele having been dedicated. For -Strabo[1025] the chief dedication of Cypselus was a “golden hammered -Zeus.” Dio Chrysostom[1026] (about 100 A.D.) refers to what Pausanias -calls the cypsele of Cypselus, but describes it simply as the “wooden -box (ξυλινὴ κιβωτός) dedicated by Cypselus.” From Pausanias himself it -is plain that the object was not by any means what the Greeks of his -time understood by a cypsele. His statement[1027] that the ancient -Corinthians called a coffer a cypsele raises a suspicion that nobody -else ever did. It is probably only an inference drawn by the traveller -from the fact of this particular coffer being so called by the guides at -Olympia[1028]. - -[Sidenote: Meanings of the word “cypsele” given by the ancients.] - -The Olympian larnax does not at all correspond to the picture of a -cypsele suggested by the ancient notices on the subject, which, quite -apart from the light they may possibly throw on Cypselus, deserve a more -detailed examination than they have hitherto received[1029]. - -The meanings of the word given by the ancients are as follows: - -(1) A wine vessel[1030], - -(2) A vessel to receive wheat or barley[1031], - -(3) Part of a furnace[1032], - -(4) A beehive[1033], - -(5) Vessels for sweet condiments[1034], or receptacles for such -vessels[1035], - -(6) The hole of the ear[1036], - -(7) Wax in the ears[1037]. - -[Sidenote: Cp. coins of Cypsela.] - -This literary evidence may be supplemented from a numismatic source. -Some fourth century B.C. coins of the Thracian Cypsela[1038] show a more -or less cylindrical vessel with two small vertical handles[1039]. A -similar vessel, resting on what is probably a grain of corn, is shown on -other coins of the same century and from the same district[1040]. The -vessel has very plausibly been identified as a cypsele. - -[Illustration: Fig. 26. Coins of Cypsela.] - -[Sidenote: Inferences as to size, shape, and material.] - -At first sight the various uses of the word appear rather miscellaneous, -especially if we include (6) and (7). But (6) and (7) need not be -brought in. They are late uses derived from (4)[1041]. Meaning (5) is -probably to be eliminated on the same grounds. This leaves us with (1) -to (4), all of them vessels of large size, a feature implicit in the -Cypselus legend and confirmed by the ancient lexicographers[1042]. - -For the material of cypselae under meanings (1) to (5) the only written -evidence is found in (i) schol. Aristoph. _Pax_ 631, which says that -“cypselae were not only woven (πλεκταί) but also of pottery (κεραμεαῖ),” -(ii) a scholiast to Lucian, _Lexiphanes_, 1, which explains the cypsele -as (_a_) “the narrow-mouthed unpitched vessel of pottery,” (_b_) an -earthenware vessel, (_c_) [addit. C] “the name is also given to a sort -of woven vessel,” (iii) Hesychius, who explains a cypsele as a -wickerwork beehive. - -These statements quite suit the list of uses. As between the two -materials mentioned the Aristophanes scholiast gives the impression that -the commoner was wicker or basket work. But in the Lucian scholiast -wickerwork is only an afterthought added by a later hand. The Lucian -scholiast is probably more correct. Pottery is a natural material for -every kind of cypsele. Cypselae (1) and (3) can never have been of -basketwork, and for (5) it looks a most unlikely material, though we -know too little about ancient spice vessels to speak with certainty. For -(2) it is suitable enough, but the cypselae of the Thracian coins, which -the emblem of the grain of corn shows to have been probably corn jars, -point in the other direction. Their shape suits either terra cotta or -metal but not wickerwork. The probable use practically excludes -metal[1043]. (4) is according to Hesychius a “plaited beehive,” _i.e._ a -hive of basketwork, and this statement is accepted by M. Pottier[1044]. -No doubt it was true at the time when it was made. But is it so certain -that the earliest cypsele beehives were of basketwork? The first -reference to beehives is in the _Odyssey_, which describes hives of -stone in the shape of vases (κρητῆρες and ἀμφιφορῆες)[1045]. These -Homeric beehives must have been either prototypes or glorifications of -hives of earthenware[1046], and it is tempting to classify these latter -with the cypsele form of hive, especially in the light of the cypsele on -the Thracian coins, which has much the shape of a mixing bowl except -that the handles are of a type more frequent on the amphora. These coins -are of the first half of the fourth century. Our literary authorities -are all much later. Most of them mention earthenware beehives only to -condemn them[1047]. Presumably they were out of fashion. Basketwork -hives[1048] on the other hand are spoken of without condemnation. When -therefore they define the cypsele beehive as a basketwork beehive, they -practically mean a round or vase-shaped hive like the “little pail where -the bee distils his sweet flow” of Antiphilus[1049], as distinguished -from the rectangular form that was also much in use[1050]. - -This is assuming that cypselae were never rectangular, but the -assumption seems fairly safe. Neither plaiting nor pottery adapts itself -to rectangular shapes. Wine vessels are not usually square. The cypsele -of the coins is not rectangular. - -[Illustration: Fig. 27. Attic vase painting, perhaps depicting a -cypsele.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 28. Attic vase painting, perhaps depicting a -cypsele.] - -There remains the “certain part of a furnace” referred to by Hesychius. -Whatever this may have been, it is most unlikely that it was rectangular -for the simple reason that ancient Greek furnaces appear from extant -pictures to have no rectangular parts that could possibly be so -identified. Pictures of ancient Greek furnaces are numerous, and it is -surprising that no attempt seems to have been made to discover a cypsele -in any of them, for it is not unlikely that some of these pictures do in -fact depict it, and in that case they show us the earliest form of the -object of which we have any precise record. - -[Illustration: Fig. 29. Attic vase painting, perhaps depicting a -cypsele.] - -[Sidenote: Probable pictures of a cypsele on sixth-century Attic vases, - depicting it as a large terra cotta vase.] - -In Saglio’s _Dictionnaire des Antiquités_, s.v. Fer, figs. 2964, 2965, -(here figs. 27, 28), pictures are reproduced from two black figure vases -that depict furnaces being used, in all probability for treating -iron[1051]. On the top of either furnace is depicted what de Launay -describes as a “sorte de vase, sans doute de terre cuite[1052].” A -similar vase is shown _ibid._ s.v. Caelatura, fig. 937[1053] (here fig. -29) on top of what the context shows to be the furnace of a bronze -foundry[1054]. This latter picture is on an early red figure vase[1055]. -In all three cases the “sort of vase” is very large, as is shown by -comparing it in size with the human figures in the picture. In short -both in size, shape, use and probably material it answers to the written -descriptions of one variety of cypsele. What it does not so well answer -to is the vase represented on the coins of Cypsela, which is tall and -cylindrical and shows two vertical handles. Fortunately there is a -connecting link between the two forms. In the Berlin Museum there is an -actual stove of terra cotta, said to have been found in the sea off -Iasos (coast of Asia Minor)[1056]. It is about ·50 m. high and of a -common enough type[1057], though it is rare to find one so well -preserved[1058]. What however gives the Iasos example its importance is -a vase ·13 m. high and ·192 diameter, of the same dark brown micaceous -clay as the stove itself, that was found along with it and fits so well -on top of it that it must unquestionably have formed part of the -complete article[1059]. Here we have a vase of considerable size that in -shape has resemblances to the vases on the coins of Cypsela, but in its -bulging sides deviates from them in the direction of our conjectured -cypselae of the vase paintings. In position and in use as the receptacle -for material to be heated, it corresponds with these latter. Though -comparatively large, it must remain doubtful whether it is large enough -to be a cypsele. But in any case it helps to connect the vases of the -Cypsela coins with the “part of a furnace” of the vase paintings, and to -make it probable that the latter was made of pottery and that both are -rightly identified as cypselae. The objects on the vase paintings differ -from all our other hypothetical cypselae in having no handles; even the -beehive cypsele has been connected with craters and amphorae, both of -which normally have two handles. But it is use as often as shape that -determines the name of a vase, and from the point of view of use the -Iasos vase is probably to be classed with a vase figured on a Greek -funeral relief (fig. 31)[1060]. Here we have an object very similar in -shape to our conjectured cypselae of the vase paintings, resting on what -Dumont[1061] called a réchaud. Its size may be judged by comparing it -with a human head from the same relief. There is no _a priori_ reason -why the ancient cypsele, like the modern glass or bottle or cup or mug, -should not show much diversity in the matter of handles and of shape -generally. The evidence just collected suggests that such was in fact -the case, and it becomes the more likely when we remember that we are -dealing with a period of some centuries. The Cypsela coins date only -from the fourth century. The portable stoves of the Iasos type are later -still[1062]. The funeral relief with the vase and réchaud is dated by -Dumont in the first century A.D.[1063]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 30. Vase on stove found at Iasos.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 31. Relief, perhaps depicting a small cypsele.] - -On the other hand the vases depicting the cypsele that forms part of a -furnace[1064] belong to the fifth or sixth century B.C., and thus bring -us to within measurable distance of Cypselus himself[1065]. A cypsele of -this description would be an admirable hiding-place for a baby, provided -it was technically speaking a good baby, not given to crying[1066]. -Eventually, as has been seen, the box version of the story won the day: -but from the Greek point of view there would be nothing impossible in a -version which hid the child in an earthen jar. Eurystheus[1067] sought -safety from Heracles in a πίθος or jar. In the seventh and sixth -centuries infants were usually buried in large terra cotta vases not -unlike those we are here considering. In the fifth century Aristophanes -represents a supposititious child as introduced into the house in an -earthenware pot[1068]. - -In short everything points to the cypsele of Cypselus having been a -large vessel of pottery. May not Herodotus after all be right when he -says that the tyrant got his name from the cypsele? The story of the -attempted murder and the ten bad men may be older than Cypselus. But if -so we have to explain how it came to be attached to the Corinthian -tyrant. [Sidenote: Was Cypselus (the child from the cypsele) a potter -who got his name from his occupation?] Is it not possible that it was -given to him as being ἐκ τῶν κυψελῶν (just as later the demagogue -Hyperbolus, who had spent his early days in a lamp factory, was spoken -of as the man from the lamps, οὑκ τῶν λύχνων[1069]) or in other words to -denote his connexion with the Corinthian potteries which at this period -were supplying a great part of the civilized world? - -[Sidenote: Evidence for the plausibility of this suggestion. (i) Such - names do occur, notably among potters.] - -Hyperbolus does not offer the only analogy for this suggestion or even -the closest. In the chapter on Rome[1070], when tracing the source of -the power of the Tarquins, we shall have occasion to examine the story -of the Corinthian potters Eucheir and Eugrammus, who lived just at this -period and whose names meaning “skilful with the hand” and “skilful at -painting” are palpably derived from their occupation[1071]. - -Cypselus may possibly have adopted, or inherited from the founder of the -firm, a cypsele as his badge or emblem, and this may have been the -immediate origin of his name. These personal or family badges or arms -were widely used in ancient Greece. Among the many found on the -Heraclean tables[1072] a κιβώτιον (box) occurs three times. A κιβώτιον -is not a cypsele; but it is a similar object and shows that a cypsele -might have been similarly used. The emblems as a rule seem to be -entirely arbitrary and unconnected with the bearer’s name or occupation. -But the word κιβωτὸς (in the original non-diminutive form) became the -nickname of Apamea in Phrygia from the fact that so much packing was -done in that great centre of trade[1073]. - -[Sidenote: (ii) Agathocles, tyrant of Syracuse, is said to have been a - potter,] - -If Cypselus was originally a potter he may be compared with Agathocles, -tyrant at the end of the fourth century of Syracuse, the great daughter -city of Corinth. Agathocles is said to have been the son of a -potter[1074]. According to Diodorus Siculus, the Delphic oracle -prophesied over the infant Agathocles (as it had over Cypselus) that “he -would be the cause of great misfortunes” to his country: and as a result -of the prophecy it was resolved to do away with the child, who however -was saved by its mother. Eventually the father was told that the child -had been saved, and took it back, and “being poor he taught Agathocles -the potter’s trade (τὴν κεραμευτικὴν τέχνην) while he was still a boy.” -This story is probably to be traced back to Timaeus, who is quoted by -Polybius[1075] for the statement that Agathocles was a potter, and is -the only source of Diodorus actively hostile to the tyrant, by whom he -had been banished from Sicily[1076]. - -[Sidenote: in what is probably a fiction intended to suggest a - comparison with Cypselus.] - -Plainly in great part at least the story of the young Agathocles is a -piece of malicious fiction. What is its prototype? I cannot help -suspecting that it is Cypselus himself. It is true that there is no -cypsele or larnax in the story, and Bauer[1077] connects it with the -legends of the youthful Cyrus and infant Romulus. But neither is there -an animal to suckle the infant, which the experts state to be the -essential feature of the Cyrus Romulus cycle[1078]. The oracle and the -rescue by the mother are both salient incidents of the Cypselus story. -In the Cyrus story we have dreams and their interpretation by Magians, -not nearly so close an analogy. The dreams too indicate only the -greatness of the child that is to be born. The Cypselus story indicates, -like that of Agathocles, the harm the child will do[1079]. Agathocles -grew up in the days when the great name in Sicily was that of the -Corinthian Timoleon. The thoughts of Sicily were all turned towards -Corinth, and we find this rapprochement reflected in the Syracusan coins -of the period, which show the Corinthian types of the helmeted goddess -head and Pegasus[1080]. What more natural therefore, especially for the -banished Timaeus, than to compare Agathocles with Cypselus[1081]? It is -not impossible that from this seditious analogy there grew up the story -that Agathocles was the son of a potter[1082]. The alternative is to -accept Agathocles’ early connexion with “the wheel, the clay, and the -smoke[1083]” of the pottery as a historical fact: but this is less -likely. Polybius himself warns us against accepting Timaeus on -Agathocles as truthful history, and seems himself to suspect his own -quotation about the tyrant having been a potter in his early days. The -elder brother of Agathocles was a prominent statesman and soldier in -Syracuse early in his career, before the younger brother had risen to -the tyranny: Agathocles himself appears early in his career to have -reached high rank in the army and to have lived in intimate relations -with some of the Syracusan nobility[1084]. The tyrant’s father was -banished from Rhegium in the days when that city was under Dionysius of -Syracuse, from which fact Beloch[1085] reasonably infers that he was a -distinguished personality. Beloch supposes that Agathocles inherited a -big pottery business. If this view is right, then the pottery does not -seem to have greatly helped the future tyrant in his public career, -which from first to last was essentially military. Still, though the -capitalist tyrant was already a thing of the past in Greece Proper, -Sicily was in some ways younger than the mother country, and it is not -impossible that Agathocles possessed a pottery, and that it played a -part, though not the leading one, in helping him on to the throne. -Agathocles was the contemporary of the Roman Appius whose suspected -attempt at a financial despotism is discussed in the chapter on Rome. -Before his accession he is described as having become very rich: but his -riches are attributed to his marriage[1086]. The evidence about -Agathocles’ early career is not decisive. But on any interpretation it -lends plausibility to the view that Cypselus started life as a potter. - -[Sidenote: Cypselus as a common noun.] - -In the whole of this long discussion as to how Cypselus acquired his -name it has been assumed that Herodotus was right in declaring that he -derived it direct from cypsele. The fact that there is a common noun -cypselus hardly affects this assumption. It is true that the cypselus is -a bird, but the bird in question is shown by Aristotle’s account of -it[1087] to be either the house-martin[1088] or some similar -species[1089] that derives its name from its clay-built nest. The -cypselus is in fact the potter-bird. - -[Sidenote: King Cypselus of Arcadia.] - -But are we right in our main assumption? There is of course an -alternative possibility. The story of the infant Cypselus may have been -attached to him solely to explain his unusual name. Schubring’s -instances of stories that he thinks to have arisen in this way are -neither convincing in themselves nor altogether analogous[1090]. But -there is one fact that offers more solid grounds for not accepting -Cypselus as a name that the tyrant derived from his occupation. An early -king Cypselus of Arcadia is mentioned by Pausanias[1091]. - -This is a genuine difficulty. But there are several ways of meeting it. -It is for instance quite conceivable that two different individuals -should have independently earned the same nickname. The name need not -have been used in the same sense on both occasions. The cypselus is not -only the potter-bird. It is also one of the most conspicuous of -migrants[1092]. It may have been from this latter point of view that the -name was thought appropriate for a king of the period of the great -migrations. - -If this be thought unlikely we might borrow a page from the sceptics and -throw doubts upon the Arcadian’s historical existence. We might explain -him away as the eponymous hero of the Arcadian Cypsela[1093]. Or again, -it might be pointed out that he is said to have been an ancestor of his -Corinthian namesake’s daughter-in-law, Melissa the wife of -Periander[1094]. The Arcadian Cypselus might then be disposed of as a -creation of the pedigree-mongers of the period when the marriage between -Melissa and Periander took place[1095]. - -[Sidenote: The third tyrant of Corinth, whom Aristotle calls - Psammetichus,] - -There is another name in the pedigree of the Corinthian tyrants from -which historical conclusions have frequently been drawn. According to -Aristotle the third and last of the tyrants (587–584 B.C.) was called -Psammetichus, a name which, as we have seen already, was borne by the -first Pharaoh of the Saite (twenty-sixth) dynasty, which appears to have -based its power largely on foreign mercenaries and foreign trade, both -mainly Greek[1096]. The Egyptian name of the Corinthian tyrant has -rightly been held to establish some sort of connexion between the two -states during the age of the tyrants. It has often been assumed[1097] -that Psammetichus of Corinth got his name directly from the Egyptian -royal family. No certainty is to be had on this point. The name, though -unknown before the time of Psammetichus I, appears to have become common -during the twenty-sixth dynasty[1098]. A Greek mercenary named -Psammetichus son of Theocles commanded the expedition which has left us -the graffiti of Abu Symbel[1099]. The name and position of the son of -Theocles show that the Corinthian tyrant might have got his Egyptian -name through a Greek intermediary. But on the other hand there is a fair -probability that the governments of Corinth and Egypt at this period -were in touch with one another either directly or through their common -friend Miletus[1100]. - -[Sidenote: an Egyptian name meaning probably “vendor of bowls,”] - -But the really curious point about a Cypselid being called Psammetichus -lies in the meaning of the name, which, as seen above[1101], is most -probably to be interpreted “man (vendor) of mixing bowls.” If this -interpretation is correct Psammetichus and Cypselus are synonyms. Now -the modern historians generally follow Aristotle[1102], and give the -name of the last tyrant of Corinth as Psammetichus. [Sidenote: is given -by Nicolaus the name of Cypselus,] But our other ancient authority, -Nicolaus of Damascus[1103], states that Periander was succeeded by a -second Cypselus, “who came from Corcyra and became tyrant of Corinth -until certain of the Corinthians combined and slew him ... and freed the -city.” Psammetichus is called by Aristotle the son of Gorgos, Cypselus -II is described by Nicolaus as son of Periander’s brother Gorgos[1104]. -A Psammetichus son of Gorgos is mentioned by Nicolaus as having been -sent to Corcyra by Periander. The same author makes Cypselus II come -from Corcyra to succeed Periander on the throne of Corinth. It is hard -to avoid the conclusion reached by Busolt[1105] that Cypselus II and -Psammetichus are one and the same person. But need we follow Busolt -further[1106] and assume that Psammetichus changed his name to Cypselus -on his accession? Psammetichus I of Egypt in his early days when he was -a vassal of Assyria, appears to have received from his overlord the -Assyrian name of Neboshazban[1107]. Possibly therefore the Egyptian king -might take it as a compliment if a Greek adopted an Egyptian name. But -even this is doubtful. The Saites would not be extremely anxious to -follow the practices of Assyria and Babylon: the Greeks did not readily -change their names. On the other hand the Greeks loved to find -equivalents between Greek names and Egyptian, as we see most markedly in -their treatment of Greek and Egyptian gods[1108], and heroes[1109], and -likewise of Egyptian place-names[1110]. [Sidenote: which suggests that -the two names were regarded by their bearer as synonyms meaning vendor -of pots.] Is it not therefore rather more probable that from beginning -to end the last of the Corinthian tyrants bore the name of his -grandfather, according to the familiar Greek custom, and that Cypselus -and Psammetichus were employed consciously as the Greek and Egyptian -forms of one and the same name[1111], both alike meaning “man of pots.” - -It may of course have been an accident that of the three names borne by -the three tyrants of the Greek potteries two should be derived from -words denoting some species of pot: but if so it is a very curious one. - - - - - Chapter VIII. _Rome_ - - - “All the historical labours bestowed on the early centuries of Rome - will, in general, be wasted.”—Sir George Cornewall Lewis, _On the - Credibility of Early Roman History_ (1855), vol. II. p. 556. - -[Sidenote: I. The narrative as to how the Tarquins are said to have - gained, held, and lost the throne.] - -At the time of the birth of Herodotus, which took place about the year -484 B.C., Polycrates, Peisistratus, and Croesus had been dead less than -fifty years: in Corinth and Sicyon it was not more than a century since -the tyranny had been suppressed. The historian had probably met people -who remembered the tyrants of Samos and Athens: he may possibly have -talked with old men from the cities of the Isthmus whose fathers had -told them of personal experiences under Cleisthenes, or Periander. - -The case with the Tarquins, the tyrant kings of Rome, is very different. -There is nothing even approximating to contemporary literary evidence -for their history, or even for their existence. In recent times their -whole claim to be regarded as historical has been disputed. It may -therefore seem something like begging the question to proceed at once to -collect evidence for the narrative before clearing the ground by -discussing its authenticity. There are however two reasons for following -that course. The first is that the question of authenticity can be more -easily discussed after the narrative has been called to mind. The other -is that the value of the story for this enquiry does not altogether -depend on the Tarquins’ historicity[1112]. - -According to the extant narratives[1113] king Tarquinius Priscus was the -son of a Corinthian named Demaratus who had settled in the Etruscan city -of Tarquinii, the modern Corneto, some fifty miles north of Rome. -[Sidenote: Tarquinius Priscus, son of a rich Corinthian trader named -Demaratus, settles at Rome and by means of his wealth secures the -throne.] The fullest of these narratives, that of Dionysius, makes -Demaratus sail to Italy “intending to trade, in a private merchant -vessel, and with a cargo of his own: having disposed of his cargo in the -cities of the Etruscans ... and acquired great gains, ... he continued -to ply the same sea, conveying Greek cargoes to the Etruscans and -bringing Etruscan goods to Greece, and became the possessor of very -great wealth ... and when the tyranny of Cypselus was being -established ... he quitted Corinth and set up a house in Tarquinii, -which was then a great and prosperous city.” All this property was left -by Demaratus to his son Lucumo, the future Lucius Tarquinius, “who, -receiving his father’s great wealth, resolved to engage in politics and -take a part in public life and to be one of the foremost men of his -city[1114].” He is described as migrating to Rome for the specific -reason that there seemed more prospect there of his wealth leading to -high political power, and as finding there the opportunity he was -looking for. “At Rome,” says Livy[1115], “his wealth brought him into -prominence.” So Dionysius[1116]: “He very soon became friends with the -king (Ancus Martius), making him presents and supplying him with funds -for his military requirements ... he also secured many of the patricians -by his benevolences, and won the favour of the common people by his -courteous greetings and the charm of his discourse and by contributions -of money.” Similarly Aurelius Victor[1117]: “by his money and his -industry he secured high position.” So too Diodorus[1118], speaking of -Tarquin’s rise to prominence in Rome: “being very wealthy he helped many -of the poor by giving them money.” Still more specifically our oldest -authority, Polybius[1119], says “Lucius, the son of Demaratus the -Corinthian, set out for Rome trusting in himself and his money.” - -These passages are enough to show that according to all our best extant -authorities, and therefore presumably according to some earlier common -source, Tarquinius Priscus owed his throne to his previous wealth. The -writers just quoted apparently pictured Tarquin as a royal favourite who -used his great wealth and ability to pave the way in the palace for his -own succession[1120], or possibly as merely a wealthy demagogue[1121], -but there are indications in the accounts that have come down to us that -Tarquin’s power may have had a somewhat different basis. - -[Sidenote: Demaratus and Priscus were great employers.] - -When Demaratus was making[1122] his fortune in Etruria, he was probably, -if the story has any historical foundation, a great employer of labour. -Strabo speaks of the “large number of skilled workmen” who accompanied -him from Corinth[1123]. Pliny speaks of the Corinthian as accompanied by -the potters (fictores) Eucheir and Eugrammus[1124]. As Tarquin is made -by both Livy[1125] and Dionysius[1126] to succeed to all his father’s -possessions, the received accounts may be taken as implying that he too -was master of “a large number of skilled workmen.” That this is the -intention of our narrative is borne out by Dionysius’ account of the -migration of Lucumo, as the subsequent Tarquinius was then called, from -Tarquinii to Rome. “He resolved to migrate thither collecting up all his -money ... and taking all who were willing of his friends and relations: -and there were many eager to go with him[1127].” On his arrival at Rome -the king “assigned him and the Etruscans who had come with him to a -tribe and curia (φυλήν τε καὶ φρατρίαν).” - -[Sidenote: Their employees were probably free men.] - -This whole description implies that Lucumo’s fellow-emigrants were free -men: nothing is said as to their occupations. On the other hand the -narratives of his father’s migration to Tarquinii make no statement as -to whether the “skilled workmen” who accompanied him were free men or -slaves. But the temptation to equate the two bodies is considerable. -Later on, when on the throne, the Tarquins are represented as employing -free skilled labour on a large scale. The object alleged by Livy for the -first Tarquin’s numerous public works was “that the people might be as -much employed at home as they had been in the army[1128].” The Roman -army did not include slaves. - -About the Tarquins as large employers of free labour we shall find more -precise and significant statements when the story of Superbus comes to -be discussed. But in the accounts of Priscus there is one further -statement that associates him closely with the trade of Rome. “The same -king,” says Livy[1129], speaking of Priscus, “apportioned sites round -the forum for private individuals to build on, and erected arcades and -shops.” So Dionysius[1130]: “he adorned the forum by surrounding it with -workshops and arcades (ἐργαστηρίοις καὶ παστάσι).” It is surely somewhat -remarkable that King Tarquin should be thus associated with the building -of shops. - -[Sidenote: Priscus is succeeded by Servius Tullius, who is said to have - been the first at Rome to strike coins.] - -Between the first and the last of the Tarquins our accounts are -unanimous in inserting Servius Tullius. Livy and Dionysius[1131] make -him the son-in-law of Priscus. Servius, who is thus assigned to both the -period and the family of the Tarquins, is stated by several authors to -have been the first to issue coins at Rome. Varro[1132] for instance -informs us that “they say that silver coinage was first struck (flatum) -by Servius Tullius.” So Pliny[1133]: “King Servius was the first to -stamp (signauit) bronze”; and again Cassiodorus[1134]: “King Servius is -said to have been the first to strike a coinage (impressisse monetam) in -bronze.” - -[Sidenote: Possible historical basis for this statement.] - -These statements cannot be accepted just as they stand. Silver coins -were first struck in Rome in 268 B.C., and the first round copper coins, -the large _aes graue_ with a Janus head on one side and a ship’s prow on -the other, are now unanimously assigned to the middle of the fourth -century[1135]. There is however nothing to preclude the possibility of -important monetary innovations or reforms by a sixth century king of -Rome. Copper has been found in Central Italy in various forms that point -to a copper currency prior to the introduction of the round _aes graue_. -There are the rough pieces known as _aes rude_, the objects of various -simple shapes but entirely devoid of decoration known as _aes formatum_, -and the pieces rectangular in shape and marked with a type known as _aes -signatum_[1136]. Though the extant examples of _aes signatum_ are -plainly on stylistic grounds to be assigned to long after the regal -period, and though the objects discovered along with finds of _aes rude_ -do not point to a very early date[1137], it would be rash to say that -either _aes rude_ or _aes signatum_ or for that matter _aes formatum_ -was not as early in origin as the sixth century[1138]. Willers[1139] -dates the use of _aes rude_ from 1000 B.C. to the fourth century, and -supposes some developments during the period, one of which, _e.g._ the -kuchenförmig (bun-shaped) variety of _aes formatum_ or the “bars with -various patterns,” may possibly be due to Servius. If Servius is to be -associated with _aes formatum_ the “bun-shaped” pieces have perhaps not -quite so good a claim as those to which Haeberlin[1140] gives the name -tortenförmig (something like the flat round weights with a flange that -are made to fit into one another), since these latter appear from the -full data that Haeberlin has collected to be characteristic of S. -Etruria: they have been found mainly at Caere, Tarquinii, and -Castelnuovo di Porto (between Rome and Falerii), _i.e._ in great part at -places with which Rome had particularly close connexions. - -But neither the “kuchenförmig” nor the “tortenförmig” _aes formatum_ -suits the literary evidence so well as Willers’ “bars with various -patterns.” These appear to constitute the most primitive form of _aes -signatum_. Pliny’s precise account[1141] of Servius’ innovation is that -he introduced _aes signatum_ in place of the earlier _aes rude_. Pliny -indeed goes on to say that Servius’ money “signatum est nota -pecudum[1142].” Among extant pieces this description is applicable only -to certain fully developed examples of the quadrilateral _aes -signatum_[1143], that, as remarked already, have to be assigned to a -later date: but whereas Pliny’s statement about Servius and _aes -signatum_ is based on Timaeus (Sicily, third century B.C.), it is quite -uncertain whether the remark about “nota pecudum” is to be referred to -the same respectable authority. Pliny’s own words are: “Seruius rex -primus signauit aes. antea rudi usos Romae Timaeus tradit. signatum est -nota pecudum.” - -[Illustration: Fig. 32. _Aes signatum._] - -Assume a historical basis for the accounts of Servius’ connexion with -the Roman currency[1144], and the motive for his activity in this -direction is not far to seek. Just about the period to which his reign -is dated Greek coins began to penetrate Etruria. They belong mainly to -Phocaea and the Phocaean colonies[1145]. Now “in the days of King -Tarquinius,” so Justin[1146] tells us, “Phocaeans from Asia put in at -the mouth of the Tiber and formed a friendship with the Romans.” The -Phocaean coinage may well have led to some reform or regulation of the -home currency, though the statement of Aurelius Victor[1147] that “he -(_i.e._ Servius) established weights and measures” may perhaps come -nearer to the truth than the more detailed assertions about striking a -coinage that have been already quoted. Even if this was all that Servius -did it is enough to make him stand out as a commercially minded -statesman since he is represented as the first ruler in Rome to regulate -units of exchange[1148]. - -The chief positive objection to a sixth century date for even the most -primitive form of metallic currency is the fact that down to the time of -the XII tables (450 B.C.) all fines were paid in cows and sheep[1149]. -But evidence of this sort may be given too much weight. As pointed out -by Ridgeway[1150], “even in a great commercial Greek city like Syracuse, -the cow formed the basis of assessment in the reign of Dionysius -(405–367 B.C.).” Syracuse had minted masterpieces of silver coinage some -time before Dionysius was born. - -Enough has been said to indicate the possible significance of the -accounts of king Servius and his copper coins. Too little is known about -either the king himself or the sixth century currency to build much upon -their reputed connexion. The matter is not one of first importance for -our enquiry. There can be no question of a revolution in the currency, -such as there are reasons for attributing to Gyges, Pheidon, -Peisistratus, and probably others of the early Greek tyrants[1151]. - -[Sidenote: The census of Servius.] - -Reforms or innovations in the currency are quite in keeping with the -other activities ascribed to Servius. The step most commonly associated -with his name is the institution of a census, “ex quo belli pacisque -munia non uiritim, ut antea, sed pro habitu pecuniarum fierent[1152].” - -[Sidenote: Servius and the collegia opificum.] - -Another institution that has been attributed to Servius is that of the -collegia opificum or unions of workmen[1153]. The early history of these -collegia is obscure: Plutarch attributes the eight earliest of them -(carpenters, potters, tanners, leather-workers, dyers, coppersmiths, -goldsmiths, flute-players) to Numa[1154]. The two versions may both have -a historic basis if we suppose that the collegia as private corporations -go back into the early regal period and that later they passed under -state control[1155]. This view is of course incapable of proof. The -evidence limits us to conjecture[1156]. But one point seems fairly -certain. The collegia must have lost importance when slave labour came -to be much used[1157]. - -Servius is constantly accused of having secured the support of the poor -by gifts and benevolences[1158], and special mention is made of his -distributions of corn and land to the plebs[1159]. [Sidenote: His -methods of purchasing the support of the lower classes:] In short, king -Servius, if he be regarded as a historical personage, appears to have -inherited the policy as well as the position of his predecessor, and his -violent accession and no less violent end to have been due mainly to -feuds within the palace. [Sidenote: his relations with the Tarquins.] -The same conclusion is the most natural one to draw from his Etruscan -name of Mastarna[1160], quite apart from the etymological value of -Gardthausen’s suggestion[1161] that the name Mastarna is a prefixed form -of Tarquin. - -[Sidenote: Tarquinius Superbus secures the throne by buying up the poor. - When king he employs Etruscans and Roman citizens on a large - scale as artizans and quarrymen.] - -Servius was eventually overthrown by Tarquinius Superbus, who is said to -have secured the throne “by buying up the poorest of the common -people[1162].” It is in the account of his reign that we find the -fullest statements as to the Tarquins’ relations to labour while they -were kings of Rome. Nothing could be more explicit than Livy’s statement -on that point: - - He summoned smiths from every part of Etruria and employed upon it - (_i.e._ on the building of the temple of Jove on the Tarpeian Mount) - not only public funds, but also _workmen from among the - plebeians_[1163]. - -The statement that Tarquin’s employees were largely plebeians (and not -slaves) is repeated by Livy later in the same book. In this second -passage Brutus, declaiming against the state of things that had existed -under the Tarquins, is made to declare that “men of Rome had been -changed from soldiers into artizans and quarrymen[1164].” - -Dionysius is as explicit and more detailed[1165]: - - He was not content to offend against the plebeians merely in this - way. He enrolled all the plebeians who were loyal to him and - suitable for military requirements, and the rest he compelled to - find employment on the public works in the city, thinking it a very - great danger for monarchs when the worst and poorest of the citizens - are unemployed: at the same time he was anxious during his reign to - complete the works left half-finished by his grandfather—the - channels to drain away the water ... and ... the hippodrome - amphitheatre.... On these works all the poor were employed, - receiving from him a moderate provision, some quarrying[1166], some - hewing wood, some leading the waggons that conveyed this material, - others bearing the burdens on their own shoulders; others again - digging out the underground cellars and moulding the vaults in them - and erecting the corridors: subordinated to the artizans thus - engaged there were coppersmiths and carpenters and stonemasons, who - were removed from their private shops and kept employed on the - public requirements. - -So in the same book[1167]: - - Tarquin after this achievement (Gabii) gave the people a rest from - expeditions and wars, and occupied himself with the building of the - temples.... He set all the artizans to work on the undertakings. - -And a little later[1168] Brutus is made to tell the Romans that Tarquin -“compels them like bought slaves to toil at quarrying and woodcutting -and carrying burdens[1169].” - -It is nowhere explicitly stated that it was to this control of the free -labour of the city that the Tarquins owed their power. On the contrary, -according to Livy the populares helped to turn Superbus out for the very -reason that he had forced them into this banausic life. “They were -indignant that they had been kept by the king so long employed as smiths -and doing the work of slaves[1170].” This by itself would certainly -suggest that the Tarquins had used their kingly power to turn the free -men of Rome into artizans and quarrymen, and not their army of employees -to turn a capitalist into a king. But the smiths summoned from Etruria, -who are associated with the Roman plebeians, recall the “large number of -skilled workmen” mentioned by Strabo as working for Demaratus at -Tarquinii, and suggest that we have here a continuation of the -activities that had made the fortune of the Tarquin family while still -in Etruria[1171]. - -[Sidenote: He loses the throne when he can no longer pay these - employees.] - -There is a further statement in the same chapter of Livy that certainly -harmonizes better with this latter alternative. At the time when the -plebeians suddenly discovered the degrading nature of their occupations, -not apparently without the help of the abler members of the nobility, -Livy informs us that the king had run out of money, “exhausted by the -magnificence of his public works.” Similarly Dionysius makes Brutus urge -on his fellow-conspirators that now is the time to carry out their plot, -when the armed citizens are “no longer controlled by (Tarquin’s) -presents as formerly[1172].” That Tarquin’s regime was one of sweat and -wages but never of blood and iron is borne out by Cicero, who observes -that “we never hear of Tarquin’s putting Roman citizens to death[1173].” - -Later writers speak of Superbus as employing penal labour and various -forms of torture and intimidation on a large scale[1174]. But these -statements, which have plainly a common origin, are no less plainly -embroideries upon the aristocratic misrepresentations of the Tarquins’ -labour policy. The truth is expressed by Florus: “in senatum caedibus, -in omnes superbia, quae crudelitate grauior est bonis, grassatus[1175].” -In other words Superbus was a harsh and unpopular employer[1176]. This -personal unpopularity must have contributed along with the exhaustion of -the royal treasury to reconcile the common people to the republican -regime, which for them was certainly the beginning of an era of -oppression and misery, since they had lost in the king their natural -protector[1177]. - -[Sidenote: Suspected attempts at restoring the kingship:] - -If the Tarquins’ power was really commercial in origin, and if the -account of it in writers of the age of Livy is in the main outline -historical, then the facts ought to be found influencing the history of -the early republic and in particular the measures taken by the -aristocrats to prevent the restoration of the monarchy. What is in fact -the sort of situation represented as most alarming them from this point -of view? - -[Sidenote: Collatinus and his wealth and “benevolences”;] - -The first indication of the direction of their fears is to be found in -the account of Collatinus’ banishment, recorded by Livy as having taken -place in the first year of the republic. According to Livy[1178] it was -simply the hated name of Tarquin that led to his banishment. Collatinus -was reluctant to withdraw: he only did so from fear that later, when no -longer consul, the same fate might overtake him with the loss of his -property into the bargain—cum bonorum amissione. Livy does not always -work over his material sufficiently to make it quite harmonize with his -own interpretation of it. It looks as though it was the bona, the wealth -of Collatinus, that led to his expulsion. Though plainly not the -strongest influence in Rome at the time, it may have been sufficiently -strong to be a perpetual menace to the aristocratic government. It is -the “primores ciuitatis” who insist on his withdrawal. If in -Dionysius[1179] on another occasion Collatinus is made to argue “that it -was not the tyrants’ money that had been harming the city, but their -persons,” the protestation only shows that there were others who did not -share this view, but thought rather, with Dionysius’ Marcus Valerius, -that there was a danger lest the people, “beguiled by the tyrant’s -benevolences, ... should help to restore Tarquin to the throne[1180].” -The same view is implied in a speech put by Dionysius[1181] into the -mouth of one of the popular leaders at the time of the first secession. -He reminds his hearers that “the people were never put to any -disadvantage by the kings, and least of all by the last ones”: he -recalls an occasion on which the king had “distributed five minae of -silver to every man,” and reminds the patricians how the plebeians had -rejected the great gifts that the banished Tarquins had offered them as -an inducement to break faith with the patrician government. - -It may well have been from similar fears that in the following year the -remainder of the Tarquins’ property was distributed among the people: -“(bona regia) deripienda plebi sunt data[1182].” A few chapters later -Livy states that so long as the banished Tarquin was still alive, the -people received from the senate “multa blandimenta[1183].” The nobles -are described by Dionysius as “taking many measures friendly to the -poor, that they might not go over to the tyrants and be won over by -considerations of personal gain and betray the commonwealth[1184].” The -senate seems to have been fighting the Tarquins with their own weapons. -The blandimenta that kept Superbus off the throne may well have been -synonymous with the benignitas that got Priscus on to it. - -After the death of Tarquin at the court of the Greek tyrant at Cumae -there were three prominent Romans who rightly or wrongly were suspected -of aiming at the kingly power. It may be worth while examining in each -of the three cases the circumstances that are said to have given rise to -these suspicions. - -[Sidenote: Cassius and his exceptional financial position;] - -Spurius Cassius[1185] is not described as having been personally very -rich, and our authors introduce into their accounts of him nothing to -support the charge that he was aiming at overthrowing the existing -government. They leave it possible to conceive of him as a -constitutional reformer who when consul sought to relieve a widespread -distress by distributions of land[1186] and perhaps corn[1187] and by -taking the state finances into his own hands[1188]. The outcry against -him is made to come mainly from the landed classes who fear that his -proposals may touch their own pockets. As far as they are thinking about -the constitution it is the financial position that the consul has -created for himself that is the chief ground of their alarms. “By his -distributions of money the consul was erecting a power perilous to -liberty: ... the way was being paved to monarchy.” Later on we find -Cassius having money dealings with the people. He proposes that the sums -that they have paid the government for corn brought from Sicily in time -of famine should be refunded to them: “but this was looked on by the -plebeians as a cash payment for the throne, and refused.” Though there -is nothing to show that the Cassius of Livy and Dionysius had either the -desire or the real equipment to repeat the career of Tarquinius Priscus, -yet the narrative about him is none the less relevant. It depicts the -early republican as deeply alarmed at any individual who secures any -kind of financial predominance in the state. Very possibly this feeling -may account for the ostentatious exhibition of poverty in which early -republican nobles are so often depicted as indulging[1189]. - -[Sidenote: Maelius and his exceptional wealth and organized body of - clients.] - -In the case of Spurius Maelius there are no such complications. If we -accept Livy and Dionysius, Maelius’ policy did not threaten the property -of any of the nobles. The fears that he would restore the kingship may -have been mistaken, but they were almost certainly genuine. Is there any -resemblance between extant accounts of Maelius’ career and the -speculations that we have been engaged in as to the early history of the -first Tarquin? There is not only a resemblance but a striking one. -Maelius was extremely rich: not dives merely but praedives[1190]. When -he set about relieving Rome from famine, he was able to do so not only -at his own expense but through his own clients and connexions: “buying -up corn at his own expense through the agency of his friends (hospitum) -and clients[1191].” - -[Sidenote: Manlius.] - -Marcus Manlius, the third to be condemned to death for aiming at the -throne, need not detain us. He is essentially a military character, like -his contemporary Dionysius of Syracuse[1192]. - -[Sidenote: The republican government changes Tarquin’s artizans into - soldiers and makes war a paying (and ultimately a paid) - profession:] - -But the real bulwark of the republic of the fifth century as it appears -in the pages of our authors is not the right arm of Servilius Ahala. It -is a fundamental change that came over the lower classes of the free -population. In a passage of Livy that has already been quoted, Brutus is -made to charge the Tarquins with having converted the men of Rome from -soldiers into artizans and quarrymen (opifices ac lapicidas). Brutus had -just effected a revolution at Rome. To represent a revolution as a -return to antiquity was as natural with the Roman as it is with -us[1193]. It is possible, though improbable, that the Tarquins had -turned the plebeians from soldiers into artizans. The situation clearly -indicated by Brutus is that he and his fellow-nobles are turning them -from artizans into soldiers. It is not merely in the speeches put by -Livy and Dionysius into the mouths of Brutus and his colleagues that we -find the establishment of the republic associated with a reorganization -of the state upon a military basis. The development of the comitia -centuriata as the main organization of the citizens of Rome for -political purposes is associated with the beginnings of the republic: -the centuries were originally and fundamentally a military -organization[1194]. - -The agrarian measures that appear so early in the narratives of the -historians need not deceive us. As far as they are authentic they must -have been either insincere or idealist[1195]. The republican nobility is -painted from the first as teaching the distressed plebeians to look not -for farms and allotments but for wars and prize money. The picture of -the transfiguration of the plebeians into soldiers is completed in the -narrative of the siege of Veii (406–396 B.C.), when pay for military -service is introduced[1196] and war becomes a leading means of earning a -livelihood[1197]. - -In short it would appear that the nobles ceased to dread a restoration -of the monarchy otherwise than by armed force when and only when their -government became the principal and most popular employer in the state. - -[Sidenote: cp. fifth century Athens.] - -The Alcmaeonidae at Athens put an end to the possibility of a revival of -the tyranny (and incidentally to all respect for constructive manual -labour) by instituting state payments for services as jurymen, sailors -on warships, and the like. Conditions at Rome were in some ways very -different from those at Athens. But the Roman nobles appear to have -aimed at securing the same result as the Athenian by very similar means. -How far this parallel holds, at least as between the extant narratives, -may be illustrated from the history of the family that took the leading -place in the early Roman republic. - -[Sidenote: The earlier Claudii and their anti-tyrannical policy.] - -The part played by Brutus in the narrative is politically as -insignificant as that of Harmodius in the overthrow of the tyranny at -Athens. The political geniuses of the early Roman republic are all to be -found in the great house of the Claudii[1198]. Our accounts make the -family first come to Rome in the sixth year of the republic. The head of -the family at that time is described by Dionysius as “of noble birth and -influential through his wealth[1199].” He arrives, “bringing with him a -great establishment and numerous friends and retainers.” Mommsen[1200] -gives strong reasons for thinking that the family cannot have first come -to Rome at so late a date. But the arrival may well have been a return -from exile like that of the Alcmaeonidae to Athens after the fall of -Hippias. The analogies between the Claudii and the Alcmaeonidae deserve -consideration, the more so as they seem to be uninfluenced by any -ancient recognition of their existence. It looks as though the wealthy -Claudii, like the wealthy Alcmaeonidae, “took the commons into -partnership[1201].” Mommsen has pointed out[1202] how many “well known -traits of the ancient tyrannus” occur in the picture of the decemvir -Appius. His contemporary Pericles was called the new Peisistratus. If -there are such strong reasons for equating the early Claudii, whose -historical existence can scarcely be seriously questioned, with the -contemporary Alcmaeonidae, it becomes increasingly probable that the -history of Rome and Athens in the sixth century ran on parallel lines. - -One great difference between fifth century Rome and fifth century Athens -was that Athens had had her own coinage from well back into the sixth -century, whereas Rome, as already mentioned, struck her first pieces -about 338 B.C. No famous name is associated with these earliest pieces. -[Sidenote: Appius Claudius Caecus (censor 312 B.C.):] The most prominent -man in Rome during the first generation after 338 was another Claudius, -the censor Appius Claudius Caecus. His greatest achievement was the -epoch-making Via Appia, the first of the great series of roads that knit -together the Roman Empire. [Sidenote: his public works,] The city owed -to him also its first aqueduct. On these great public works he spent, -without the previous sanction of the senate, the money accumulated in -the treasury[1203]. The sums thus spent must have represented the first -large accumulation of the new Roman currency. - -[Illustration: Fig. 33. _Aes graue_ with wheel.] - -[Sidenote: his probable connexion with Roman coinage,] - -Appius’ connexion with the early coinage of Rome was probably not -confined to spending it. The second series of Roman _aes graue_ was -coined in Campania and bears on the reverse a wheel (fig. 33). -Numismatists have long associated the appearance of this wheel with the -construction of the Appian way that led from Rome to the Campanian -capital[1204]. - -[Sidenote: his numerous clients,] - -One detail only is wanted to complete the picture of a potential tyrant -of the early Greek type, such as has been depicted in every section of -this volume, and that feature appears in Valerius Maximus. According to -that writer[1205], who flourished early in the first century A.D., -Appius possessed “plurimas clientelas.” - -[Sidenote: and Mommsen’s conjecture that he aimed at a tyranny.] - -All this gives added significance, in the light of our enquiries, to a -brilliant conjecture of Mommsen[1206] that Appius actually attempted to -make himself tyrant. Mommsen relies mainly on a sentence in -Suetonius[1207] which runs: “Claudius Drusus, after a crowned statue had -been set up to him at Appi Forum, endeavoured by means of his clients -(clientelas) to seize Italy.” The context dates the event between the -decemvirate and the first Punic War. The possible period is further -limited by the fact that Appi Forum was only founded by Appius Claudius -Caecus. The name of the would-be tyrant as given by Suetonius is -Claudius Drusus, but this, Mommsen shows, must be corrupt. The mention -of Appi Forum points definitely to Appius Claudius Caecus, the only -person whose name is associated with the place. In another passage of -his history[1208], Mommsen himself observes how Appius shows the spirit -of the Tarquins. - -[Sidenote: “Secessions.”] - -If we look at the history of the early republic from the plebeian point -of view, there is at least one important feature in the extant -narratives that supports our main conclusions. The most notable weapon -that the fifth century plebeians are represented as employing against -the nobles is the “secession.” The first is recorded under the year of -Spurius Cassius’ consulship, when the men whom Tarquin is accused of -having made into “artizans and quarrymen” proceeded in a body to the -“mons sacer” outside the city, and refused to come back and resume work -until their grievances had been dealt with. The resemblance of the -secession to the modern strike has already been recognized[1209]. It may -be an accident, but if so it is a remarkable one, that the chief weapon -of the class on which Tarquin’s power appears to have rested should have -been one that reappears in history with the organization of the -industrial classes in modern times. - -Before we proceed to discuss the value of the narratives that we have -been quoting, there are a few further notices in them that have a place -in this discussion, though they deal not with Rome but with other cities -of Central Italy. - -[Sidenote: The part played at Ardea in 440 B.C. by the working-classes.] - -In 440 B.C. the plebeians of Ardea, a city about 20 miles S. of Rome, -are described by Livy[1210] as engaged in a struggle with the optimates, -and as getting the worst of it. Thereupon the losing party “quite unlike -the Roman plebs, ... prepared to besiege the city (_i.e._ Ardea) with a -crowd of workmen (opificum), attracted by the prospect of plunder.” The -Latin leaves it possible that the crowd of workmen (opificum) with which -the plebs of Ardea prepared to besiege their city should be understood -as a separate body, conceivably metics or slaves. At Veii in 400 B.C. -the artifices are said to have been slaves[1211]. But though in Etruria -in 400 B.C. this may have been normally the case, in Latin Ardea forty -years earlier we may well have conditions not unlike those that have -been inferred above for sixth century Rome. Even if the opifices of -Ardea are to be understood as slaves, the united body of plebeians and -opifices acting in opposition to the optimates comes nearer to Brutus’ -description of the situation at Rome under the Tarquins than does -anything that can be found in our historians’ pictures of Rome in the -fifth century. Livy is thinking of the Roman plebeians of the early -republican period, not of the opifices and lapicidae of the age of the -Tarquins, when he says that the plebs of Ardea was quite unlike the -Roman plebs[1212]. - -[Sidenote: The rich Veientine employer who became king of his city in - 400 B.C.] - -In the year 400 B.C. according to Livy the people of Veii, “taedio -annuae ambitionis, regem creauere[1213].” Nothing is said by Livy about -feelings and parties in Veii itself, except this statement that they -were bored with annual elections. All that Livy mentions is the way in -which the appointment was received elsewhere in Etruria. The event, he -says, gave offence to the peoples of Etruria. Their hatred of kingly -power was not greater than that which they felt against the king -personally. He had previously made himself generally unpopular by his -wealth and arrogance (opibus superbiaque). He had once brought a solemn -celebration of the games to a violent conclusion: indignant at having -been rejected by the votes of the twelve peoples in favour of another -candidate for the priesthood, he had suddenly, in the middle of the -performance, withdrawn the workmen (artifices), a great part of whom -were his own slaves[1214]. - -The result of the Veientine’s wealth had been, according to Livy, to -make him unpopular. But it is a reasonable inference from Livy’s -narrative that he was unpopular only with the aristocrats who continued -to control the government in the other cities of Etruria. His accession -can hardly have been disagreeable to the Veientines who made him king. - -As noticed just above before he became king he had also been the -employer and actually the owner of a great proportion of the “artifices” -of the city. It is nowhere stated that the artifices helped to make him -king in Veii as they had helped to make him unpopular in the rest of -Etruria: but the important part played by the opifices at Ardea a -generation previously suggests that this may well have been the case. If -the events took place as recorded it is hard to believe that there was -not some connexion between the Veientine’s royal power and his previous -riches and control of the skilled labour of the city[1215]. - -[Sidenote: II. The credibility of the narrative.] - -So far we have been assuming that the extant accounts of the Tarquins -have a historical basis. That assumption, as remarked already, is by no -means beyond dispute. Not a statement has been quoted so far in this -chapter that has not within the last century been pronounced to be -historically worthless. Recently however there has been a movement to -treat the narrative with much more respect than it generally received a -generation ago. The new attitude is not merely a reaction against the -excessive scepticism of the nineteenth century. Largely it is based on -fresh evidence, mainly archaeological. Inscriptions show that writing -was no extraordinary accomplishment at Rome in those early days. -Excavations of cities that have been sacked make it most unlikely that -the sack of Rome in 390 B.C. meant the complete destruction of the city -records. In the face of facts like these more weight is now given to -passages where our authorities for the history of sixth and fifth -century Rome allude to more or less contemporary records, whether Roman -or Greek. The evidence for falsification and invention is indeed -considerable, but it is now for the most part realized that the critics -of the nineteenth century greatly overestimated its application. The -credibility of early Roman history is too big a subject to deal with at -all adequately in a work like this. It is necessary however to examine -more in detail those parts of the narrative with which this enquiry is -more particularly concerned. - -[Sidenote: The historical existence of the Tarquins has been denied, - _e.g._ by Pais.] - -Some scholars are still to be found who dispute _in toto_ the -Tarquins’ historical existence. Of this ultra-sceptical school the -most recent and voluminous exponent is Professor Pais of Naples[1216]. -Pais accepts nearly all the views of nearly all the sceptics in so far -as they are purely destructive. But the main inspiration of his -unbelief is not this destructive criticism but the ease with which he -finds that he can explain the growth of our narratives on the -assumption that they are false[1217]. In the case of the Tarquins Pais -first points out in the usual way the inconsistencies and -impossibilities and reduplications[1218] in the narrative, and the -uncertainties that hang over it as a whole. Then, after rejecting it -as history, he accounts for it as myth. He equates Tarquinius -philologically with Tarpeius[1219]. The Tarpeian rock was the slope of -the Roman Capitol over which condemned criminals were hurled to meet -their doom. There are passages in Varro and elsewhere that make it -possible that the whole Capitol was once called the Tarpeian -Mount[1220]. On the strength of them Tarquinius is explained as -Tarpeius, the original guardian deity of the Roman citadel. All the -stories told about Tarquin are, according to Pais, attempts to explain -customs and buildings and natural features connected with the Tarpeian -Mount. Hence his association with the temple on the top of the Capitol -and with the quarries on its sides. Hence the stories of his cruelty -and of his own violent death. Hence too we hear of Tarquinian laws: -they are merely laws passed on the Mons Tarpeius or sanctioned by the -god Tarpeius[1221]. - -I do not propose to deal in detail with these criticisms. They do not -seem to me to need it. So many unquestionably historical characters -would succumb to Pais’ treatment. - -[Sidenote: Pais’ arguments tested by applying them to Alfred the Great.] - -Imagine for a moment that the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle had never -circulated, and that the original had perished in a Danish raid. Imagine -further that Asser’s life of Alfred had met with a similar fate. Both -calamities might easily have happened, and if they had, king Alfred -would be as easily disposed of as king Tarquin himself. - -Alfred did none of the things that tradition ascribes to him. He did not -institute trial by jury or the division of England into shires. He was -not the founder either of University College, Oxford, or of the British -navy. The stories of his victories over the Danes are extremely doubtful -on the face of them[1222]. Alfred does not conquer his enemies: he -merely converts them. The legend admits that he had his headquarters in -an impassable swamp, and that the conquered Danes ruled the country. -Twice in two centuries the Danish invaders sweep over England after the -death of a king Aethelred. Both times there is a campaign on the -Berkshire Downs. The decisive battle is fought in the first case at -Ashdown, in the second at Essendune, which is palpably a mere variation -of the same name. In each case the conquest is succeeded by the reign of -a Saxon Edward. The second Edward is admitted by tradition to have been -less concerned with royalty than with religion[1223]. The first will be -shown in a moment to have been the son of a god. Elder as applied to the -first Edward is neither more nor less suspicious than Priscus as applied -to Tarquin. This simple device of duplication probably explains the -story of Alfred in Athelney. It is a reflexion backwards of the story, -possibly historical, of Hereward’s exploits in the similar swampy -fastness of Ely. - -The one legend that remains inextricably associated with Alfred is that -of the cakes. Alfred the fugitive in his Arician grove[1224] at Athelney -is made known to his followers only after the burning of the cakes. The -inference is obvious. Alfred is a vegetation deity of the same order as -Demeter, the wandering goddess who was found by the mistress of the -house where she sought refuge burning not cakes but Triptolemus the corn -god himself[1225]. The mistress of the house appears also in the Alfred -myth. But in other ways, and especially in the recognition scene, the -story has been obviously contaminated by Christian influence[1226]. - -So far therefore from dismissing the cake story from Alfred’s history, -we find that it is the very essence of the legend. In fact, when we -recall such divinities as Dionysus Botrys, Dionysus the Grape, we must -be tempted to wonder whether king Alfred and his cakes are not one and -the same divinity. - -[Sidenote: The Greek Demaratus has been regarded as a Greek fiction:] - -The introduction of the Greek Demaratus into the Tarquin story has -sometimes been regarded with extreme suspicion. For the late -Professor Pelham it seems to have been a proof that Tarquin was -merely Herodotus translated into Latin. He uses it as such in a -handbook on Roman history[1227]. Even if only the literary records -are considered Pelham’s inference if not unreasonable is certainly -rash. The story of the voyage of Demaratus stands on quite a -different footing from the long speech put by Dionysius into the -mouth of Brutus, in which the founder of the Roman republic is made -to quote the double kingship at Sparta as a precedent for the double -consulship[1228]. [Sidenote: but there is nothing improbable about -the narrative,] Brutus’ speech is palpable fiction. The Demaratus -story on the other hand may indeed have been borrowed from that of -Philip the son of Butacides, who in the last quarter of the sixth -century fled from Croton “with his own trireme and a crew of his own -employees[1229]” and sailed first to Cyrene and then with Dorieus -the Spartan to Sicily, where they tried to establish a settlement -but were killed by the Phoenicians and Egestaeans. But if on other -and independent grounds we find reason for thinking that the story -of Demaratus’ voyage in the seventh century[1230] is in the main -outline historical, then we may reasonably find a confirmation of it -in the well attested facts of Philip’s adventures in the century -following, in the statement[1231] that Caere, the Southern neighbour -of Tarquinii, contained a Greek element at the time of the -Tarquins[1232], and further in the fact that Demaratus is made to -quit Corinth at a time when we have the authority of Herodotus[1233] -for believing that many prominent Corinthians were being driven to -quit their city. The migration of the Tarquins from Tarquinii to -Rome corresponds with the Etrusco-Carthaginian alliance against the -Greeks of which the best remembered fact is the subsequent disaster -that overtook the Phocaeans in Corsica in 536 B.C. When the Tarquins -are banished from Rome they flee to the Greek city of Cumae, while -the Romans who have banished them proceed to make an alliance with -Carthage[1234]. All through the Tarquin narrative we may discern a -strictly historical background that fully explains their comings and -goings. The same may of course be said of countless heroes of modern -historical romances. But in these historical romances the fictitious -characters seldom play the leading political part that is played by -the tyrant kings of the Tarquin dynasty. - -The evidence of institutions also tends rather against the sceptics. -Cicero notes that the organization which Tarquinius Priscus was said to -have introduced for maintaining the Roman cavalry was the same in -principle as that which had once prevailed in Corinth[1235]. The -sceptics may indeed argue that the Corinthian character of the Roman -practice was the reason why it was attributed to the son of Demaratus. -But this line of argument rests on pure assumption, and leaves with its -advocate the onus of explaining this similarity between the institutions -of Corinth and Rome. - -There is in fact another source of evidence now available which greatly -alters the balance of probabilities. Cicero may after all be right when -he says [Sidenote: which is confirmed] “influxit non tenuis quidam e -Graecia riuulus in hanc urbem, sed abundantissimus amnis illarum -disciplinarum et artium[1236],” and proceeds at once to illustrate his -statement from the career of Demaratus. - -[Illustration: Fig. 34. Corinthian vase found at Tarquinii.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 35. Corinthian terra cotta tablet depicting the -export of vases.] - -[Sidenote: by the finding at Tarquinii of VII-VI century Corinthian - pottery,] - -At the time when the story makes Demaratus leave Corinth for Etruria -Corinth was probably the chief industrial state in Greece. Her chief -industry was pottery. Corinthian pottery of this period has been found -in many parts of the Greek world, including the chief cities of -Etruria[1237]. At Corneto (Tarquinii), the town from which Tarquinius -Priscus is said to have migrated to Rome, many specimens from the -necropolis of the ancient city are to be seen in the museum. An example -is shown in fig. 34[1238]. Unless the Corinthian pottery found in such -distant regions as Etruria has distinct local peculiarities, it is -generally assumed to have been imported from Greece. Corinth did -unquestionably export pottery. A Corinthian terra cotta tablet has come -down to us (see fig. 35)[1239] that depicts a ship surmounted by a row -of vases that can only represent the cargo. The wide area of its -distribution and the very numerous sites on which it has been found -point to export from a single centre. On the other hand a large export -trade from one main centre is quite consistent with branch -establishments. If Corinthian potters went to Etruria, it is hard to see -how we are to distinguish the vases they made before leaving home from -those that they produced afterwards. The question whether the -characteristic pale clay of the Corinthian pottery is to be found in -Central Italy does not arise. The raw material would be imported quite -as easily as the finished product. But there is other archaeological -evidence that takes us further, and makes it not only possible but -probable that Greek potters as well as Greek pottery found their way to -Etruria at the period to which the Demaratus story, if historical, must -be assigned, _i.e._ about the middle of the seventh century[1240]. I -refrain purposely at this point from drawing my own conclusions, and -shall confine myself to the views and statements of archaeologists who -have devoted special attention to the material in question. - -[Sidenote: and by the many finds in Central Italy of VII and VI century - objects of Greek style but local workmanship.] - -In the seventh century graves that have been found in so many cities of -Etruria there occur, besides objects that may well be imported from -Greece, many others that are essentially Greek in character, but show -local peculiarities. For instance at Caere, which was so closely -connected with Tarquinii and Rome, in the famous tomb excavated in 1836 -by General Galassi and the arch-priest Regulini, a quantity of metal -work of this description was found. The tomb has been recently reopened -and the contents discussed at length by G. Pinza[1241]. On some of the -vases of a very familiar Greek type found in the same grave Pinza -remarks that “the coarse clay allows us to imagine that they are of -local fabric[1242].” - -When we come to Central Italian finds that date from the sixth century -Greek objects that there is good reason for regarding as locally -produced become positively plentiful. They include vases and bronzes, -architectural terra cottas and sepulchral frescoes[1243]. Such a mass of -material points again to a large number of Greek or Greektrained workmen -in Central Italy at the time of its production, and though that time is -rather later than Demaratus and the objects are Ionic, not Corinthian, -yet it increases the plausibility of the Demaratus story, the more so as -the change from Corinthian to Ionic reflects the policy ascribed in our -ancient literary authorities to Servius Tullius[1244]. - -[Sidenote: The names of Demaratus’ Greek workmen are not (_pace_ Rizzo) - “obviously fictitious.”] - -Those who deny the historical existence of Demaratus naturally deny also -that of his Greek workmen Eucheir and Eugrammus. Even Rizzo, who admits -a historical basis for the Demaratus story, declares that these names -are “obviously fictitious[1245].” - -The taint of the ultra-sceptical school still lingers. Else why should a -countryman of Tintoretto say that Eucheir and Eugrammus are “obviously -fictitious” names? In spite of its obvious fictitiousness the name -Eucheiros was actually borne by a Greek potter, several of whose vases -have come down to us signed “Eucheiros made me the son of -Ergotimos[1246].” This Eucheiros the son of Ergotimos (itself a good -industrial name) lived not in the seventh century but in the sixth: -also, he was not a Corinthian but an Athenian. But even if we refrain -from emphasizing the pride of family which his signature shows as -compared with that of most potters, who sign with only their own names, -and refrain too from recalling the facts that Greeks so very frequently -bore the names of their grandfathers and that potters like Amasis almost -certainly migrated to Athens about the middle of the sixth century, when -Athens was supplanting the rest of Greece and more particularly Corinth -in the pottery industry, still the sixth century Athenian Eucheiros -completely disposes of the “obvious fictitiousness” of one detail of the -Demaratus story. So far from being obviously fictitious the Corinthian -Eucheir has every appearance of historical reality. So too has his -alleged relationship to the founder of the Tarquin dynasty at Rome. If -the first tyrant of Corinth got his name from a pot and very possibly -owed his tyranny to the Corinthian potteries, it is not surprising if a -Corinthian emigrant to Italy took potters with him and used them to -build up the position which enabled him to make himself tyrant in the -city of his adoption[1247]. In both cases we are dealing with -conjectures, but it may be fairly claimed that the two conjectures lend -one another mutual support. - -[Sidenote: Servius and Greece: the narrative connects him not with - Corinth but with Ionia.] - -There are no traditions connecting Servius with Corinth: such notices as -we have of his relations with the Greeks connect him with Ionia. Both -Livy[1248] and Dionysius[1249] and also Aurelius Victor[1250] state that -Servius built a temple of Artemis and made it the centre of a Latin -league, in imitation of the temple of Artemis at Ephesus, which was the -meeting-place of the Ionian league. It has already been suggested that -Servius’ monetary reforms may have a historical basis, and be due to -intercourse with the Phocaeans, who had founded Marseilles in 600 B.C. -The city of Phocaea, though in Aeolian territory, was reckoned -Ionian[1251]. - -[Sidenote: Ionian influence in Central Italy at the reputed period of - Servius is confirmed by archaeological finds.] - -The Ionizing Servius is said to have reigned from 578 to 534 B.C. In the -middle of the sixth century, or in other words at just the same period, -a corresponding change occurs in the archaeological finds, in which -experts are agreed in recognizing Ionian influence if not Ionian -workmanship. Among the objects which display the new style are the vases -known as Caeretan hydriae[1252] and Pontic amphorae[1253] and a group -that has been classified as among the latest products of -Clazomenae[1254], and a group of bronzes from Perugia[1255]. Of the -sixth century examples of the famous frescoes that adorn or disfigure -the chamber tombs of Etruria some have been attributed to Ionian -artists[1256], as have also architectural terra cottas of the same -period found in Latium at Conca (the ancient Satricum)[1257] and -Velletri[1258]. - -[Sidenote: Rome and Cumae.] - -In dealing with the architectural terra cottas from Conca Rizzo -suggests[1259] that the potters who worked there came from Cumae or some -other Greek city in Campania. In this connexion he remarks[1260] that so -far the traces of intercourse between Rome and Campania during the first -two centuries of the city (_i.e._ 750–550 B.C.) seem rather scanty. He -attributes this to gaps in excavation. Once more he seems not to notice -that the negative archaeological evidence harmonizes with the literary -tradition. Cumae must have been powerfully influencing Rome in the very -early days when the Romans borrowed the Cumaean alphabet. But then comes -a period when Cumae is eclipsed by Corinth[1261]. Cumae only begins to -recover her influence Romewards when Corinthian influence is on the -wane. The Tarquins’ story begins at Corinth: it ends at Cumae, where -Superbus, when banished from Rome, is said to have sought refuge[1262] -with Aristodemus who was perhaps the last Greek tyrant of the old -commercial type[1263]. - -[Sidenote: The earliest Forum shops (from the graves on the site) and - the great drain (from its brickwork) have been dated after - the regal period: but] - -It has been argued that nobody could have built shops in the Forum in -the time of the Tarquins because recent excavations have shown that till -a comparatively late date the Forum was used as a cemetery: that, apart -from this, arcades and shops must have been impossible in the Forum -until it had been drained: and that the building of the main drain, the -cloaca maxima, ascribed to Tarquin by Livy, has been shown by excavation -to belong to a very much later age. - -[Sidenote: the drain cannot be dated from its brick facing,] - -As regards the main drain, archaeology has indeed shown that it was -bricked and vaulted at a late date; but there is no reason for thinking -that it began its existence with the masonry that now encloses it. The -London Fleet and Tyburn suggest the opposite. The most recent volume on -the subject is emphatic on this point. “The earliest Roman sewer -consisted undoubtedly of a natural watercourse, the channel of which was -widened and deepened[1264].” “There is no doubt that the first attempts -at artificial drainage date from the regal period. The first part of the -city to be drained was the Forum valley[1265].” - -[Sidenote: and the Forum graves show only (_pace_ Pais) that the - cemetery was secularized not later than late in the regal - period.] - -Those who maintain a post-regal date for the building of the Forum base -their arguments on the finds of pottery in the Forum graves. The finds -have been numerous and their evidence is valuable, and it is necessary -briefly to review it. The latest style of pottery found in these graves -is the Proto-Corinthian. This very distinctive and widely distributed -pottery[1266] has been the subject of much controversy as regards its -place of origin, but its chronology is well established. It flourished -in the seventh century: during the sixth it persisted in a few -stereotyped forms, of which at least two[1267] lived on in a degraded -form into the fifth. Vases of this style quoted by Boni[1268] as coming -from two of the latest graves in the Forum are illustrated in the -_Notizie degli Scavi_[1269] (fig. 36). Both the vases illustrated might -well be seventh century. At Rhitsona in Boeotia the types were -completely obsolete by the middle of the sixth century, not one example -occurring among some 2500 vases excavated from graves of the latter half -of the century. This mass of pottery included about 150 Proto-Corinthian -vases, but the number is divided about equally between kothons like -_J.H.S._ XXXI. p. 75, fig. 4, and small skyphoi such as _J.H.S._ XXIX. -p. 319, fig. 7, no. 9, with just two or three pyxides like _J.H.S._ -XXIX. p. 312, fig. 2, no. 8. - -In the Forum graves there are a certain number of vases of other styles -that cannot be dated so accurately as the Proto-Corinthian but suggest -on stylistic grounds a somewhat later date. None of them however would -naturally be put later than towards the end of the sixth century, and -very few so late as that[1270]. Occasional burials of a later date would -be evidence for a later conversion from cemetery to Forum only if -intramural burials were unknown in Rome. As a matter of fact there is -explicit evidence that they took place[1271]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 36. Proto-Corinthian vase found in the Roman Forum.] - -[Sidenote: Views on the historicity of Servius Tullius.] - -After what has been said about the Tarquins and sixth century Rome -generally it is scarcely necessary to discuss in detail the historicity -of Servius Tullius. For representative modern views on him see -Mueller-Deecke[1272] (Servius symbolizes the supremacy of Volsinii, the -Tarquins that of Tarquinii); De Sanctis[1273] (Servius is the Etruscan -invader who drove out the Tarquins); Gardthausen[1274] (Servius is the -Roman counterpart of the Greek tyrant, the Tarquins the legitimate -kings, leaders of the rich and noble). This whole chapter is a -refutation of Gardthausen’s view about the Tarquins: the other -suggestions are compatible with my own. Etruria may well have exercised -as strong an influence on a sixth century tyranny at Rome as did Persia -on those of sixth century Ionia. - -Pais[1275] fancifully explains Servius as the priest god, the seruus -rex, of Aricia, who was imported to Rome in 338 B.C., well known to -English readers as - - The priest who slew the slayer - And shall himself be slain. - -Mastarna is differentiated from Servius[1276] and said to have a -historical prototype in Mezentius, the enemy of Aeneas. My criticisms of -Pais in reference to the Tarquins are equally applicable here. - -[Illustration: Fig. 37. Ionic terra cotta antefix found in Rome.] - -[Sidenote: Rome and Athens.] - -In the early period of the Roman republic the chief Greek influence to -judge from the narratives was that of Athens and the Alcmaeonidae[1277]. -Once more we find the written documents and the archaeological evidence -in agreement. During the second half of the sixth century Attic imports -had been gaining a great preponderance in Central Italy[1278]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 38. Similar antefix found in Samos.] - -Thus from the time when the Greek Demaratus is said to have settled in -Tarquinii to that at which the last Roman Tarquin is said to have sought -shelter in the Greek Cumae the series of Greek connexions implied in our -narrative is found reflected in the results of excavations. We have -based our conclusions on a mass of material from various sites scattered -all over Central Italy. [Sidenote: The finds from Rome itself confirm -the narratives by showing first Corinthian influence, then Ionian, and -then Attic.] The evidence from Rome itself could not have been made the -basis of the discussion. It is not sufficiently abundant. Its scantiness -however need cause no misgivings. It is sufficiently accounted for by -the unbroken ages of crowded occupation that differentiate Rome from the -surrounding cities. The finds from Rome, as far as they go, confirm the -other evidence by showing that first Corinth, then Ionia and finally -Athens did actually influence Rome during the period of the last royal -dynasty. Corinthian vases have been found in the city from time to -time[1279], though not, it should be noticed, in the Forum -cemetery[1280]. The influence of Ionia in the sixth century is seen in -such objects as a series of cups[1281] closely resembling the “later -Ionic vases” of the Munich catalogue[1282], or again in a bearded -antefix (fig. 37) found near the church of S. Antonia and compared by -Pinza[1283] with examples published by Boehlau in his _Aus ionischen -Nekropolen_[1284] (fig. 38), or yet again in the archaic terra cotta -head (fig. 39) found in 1876 near the church of the Aracoeli on the -Capitol[1285], which much resembles the stone head (fig. 40) from the -Athenian Acropolis described by Dickens as “an undoubtedly early example -of imported Chiot art[1286].” An amphora in the Attic black figure style -(fig. 41) has been found on the Quirinal[1287]. “The most exquisite -early Attic” is reported by Boni from the Palatine[1288]. Attic Ionic -influence has been seen in the Capitoline she-wolf (fig. 42), which is -held by Petersen to commemorate the expulsion of the kings, and may be -compared with the statue of a lioness put up at Athens to commemorate -Leaina, the mistress of the tyrannicide Aristogeiton[1289]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 39. Terra cotta head found on the Roman Capitol.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 40. Stone head found on the Acropolis at Athens.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 41. Vase in Attic black figure style found on the -Quirinal.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 42. The Capitoline wolf.] - -[Sidenote: Conclusions on the question of credibility.] - -This completes the evidence for the credibility of our narrative[1290]. -It is not conclusive. The archaeological material on which we have had -so largely to rely, though it reflects the various Greek influences that -are said to have affected their history, does not for instance establish -Demaratus as a historical character. But it does fully establish him as -a historical possibility. It disposes us to give much more weight than -was customary a generation ago to statements and allusions that tend to -confirm the historical basis of our narratives. We no longer pass over -the possibility that Demaratus may have been a living prototype of -Philip the son of Butacides[1291], and not a mere study in fiction based -on the career of the adventurous Crotonian. In the light of the -extremely rich collection of Greek pottery from Caere[1292], the -childish story told by Strabo[1293] of how Caere got its name from the -Greek χαῖρε no longer discounts his other statement in the same passage -that in early times the city had a treasury at Delphi, a statement that -is confirmed by Herodotus[1294], who tells us that the people of Caere -consulted the Delphic oracle about the year 540 B.C. In short there is -every possibility that Tarquin at Rome may have had consciously before -his eyes the career of Cypselus at Corinth. The accounts here offered -both of the Tarquins and of the Corinthian tyrants are admittedly -conjectural: but when two such conjectures based on independent evidence -are found to harmonize so well both with one another and with a broad -general explanation of the narratives they deal with, it may be fairly -claimed that they render one another mutual support. - -[Sidenote: If Tarquin is a Greek fiction, it preserves an early Greek - conception of the typical early tyrant as a great - capitalist.] - -But let us for the moment adopt the attitude of the sceptics, and assume -the whole story of the Tarquins to be false. In that case the numerous -Greek elements can be explained only as plagiarisms from the -corresponding figures in Greek history, the seventh and sixth century -tyrants. But the Greek element includes the story of Demaratus and his -Corinthian workmen and his wealth, and the part that these played in the -events that led up to his son Tarquinius Priscus becoming king of Rome. -In other words, for the hypothetical authors of this hypothetical -fiction the typical early Greek tyrant was a great capitalist and a -great employer[1295]. - - - - - Chapter IX. _Sicyon, Megara, Miletus, Ephesus, Leontini, Agrigentum, - Cumae_ - - - “Ne perdons rien du passé. Ce n’est qu’avec le passé qu’on fait - l’avenir.” - - ANATOLE FRANCE. - -[Sidenote: Sicyon.] - -The tyranny at Sicyon lasted longer than in any other Greek state[1296]. -It started about the same time as that of Cypselus at Corinth and -continued in the same family for about a century. The tyrants rested -their power on the support of the pre-Dorian population of their city, -and the establishment of the tyranny was probably to a large extent a -racial movement representing a rising of the pre-Dorian stratum of the -population against their Dorian conquerors. - -How the tyrant family secured its power is another question. Until the -other day our only information on the subject was to the effect that the -founder of the dynasty was a cook or butcher (μάγειρος)[1297], who was -helped to power by the Delphic oracle[1298]. Thanks however to a papyrus -recently unearthed by the Oxford scholars Grenfell and Hunt and -published by them in 1915 we have now considerable fragments of a -detailed account of the founder of the dynasty[1299]. - -The fragment confirms the statement that the tyrants of Sicyon were -sprung from a butcher and settles the vexed question of the relationship -of Andreas and Orthagoras (the two earliest known members of the family) -by showing that Orthagoras was the first tyrant and Andreas was father -of Orthagoras. It also shows that Orthagoras himself was bred as a -butcher. But it is devoted mainly to the military exploits of the -youthful Orthagoras, and though it does not take us down to the day when -he made himself tyrant it plainly brings us very near it, and as it -leaves him in the position of polemarch on active service it seems to -illustrate and support the statement of Aristotle that the early tyrants -often owed their power to some high magistracy or military position that -they had previously secured in the state. But there are several reasons -why this military aspect should not be overrated. The account of how -Orthagoras actually seized the tyranny is after all wanting. The extant -fragment says that he secured the position of polemarch “partly also by -reason of the goodwill of the mass of the citizens towards him,” and -gives this as a separate reason[1300] from that of his military -successes. Moreover the author of the fragment was possibly Aristotle -himself, who is known to have written a lost _Constitution of the -Sicyonians_; and although Grenfell and Hunt regard Ephorus as more -probably the author, Ephorus lived at the same time and wrote under the -same historical influences as Aristotle and was probably misled in the -same way concerning the character of the early tyranny[1301]. The -outstanding fact in the early career of Orthagoras is still his -tradesman origin. - -Little is known of the later career of Orthagoras except that he -governed mildly, and of his successor Myron (Olympian victor in 648 -B.C.[1302]) nothing is recorded that throws any direct light on the -origin of the tyranny: but the case is different when we come to -Cleisthenes, the last and most famous of this family of tyrants, whose -reign covered roughly the first third of the sixth century[1303]. With -Cleisthenes the Sicyonian tyranny entered on a new phase. - -Aristotle quotes Sicyon as an instance of a city where the government -changed “from tyranny to tyranny ... from that of Myron to that of -Cleisthenes[1304].” The story of how Cleisthenes got his two brothers -out of the way is told by Nicolaus Damascenus[1305]. But what Nicolaus -gives is purely a tale of domestic crime, a change from tyrant to tyrant -not from tyranny to tyranny. Perhaps the change referred to by Aristotle -is to be connected with the fact that Cleisthenes followed an aggressive -foreign policy[1306]. He was violently hostile to Argos[1307], and took -a leading part in the “sacred” war that was fought about Delphi at the -beginning of the sixth century B.C.[1308]. He was a contemporary of -Periander who appears to have changed the character of the tyranny at -Corinth by making the government warlike. It is not unlikely that the -change effected by Cleisthenes at Sicyon was in the same direction. In -turning to war it does not follow that he forsook trade. He may have -held the view that trade follows the flag. The “sacred” war had its -secular side. It arose about the refusal of the people of Krisa, who -possessed the port of Delphi, to remove their harbour dues. - -Krisa was a place of importance in early times[1309], so much so that -what was later known as the Gulf of Corinth was called the Gulf of -Krisa. The territory of the Krisaians lay just opposite Sicyon, and it -seems not improbable that the Sicyonians, with their allies the -Corinthians[1310], aimed at wresting from their rivals across the water -their position in the gulf which was the starting-point of trade with -the far West[1311]. According to a Pindar scholiast the Krisaians had -control of the sea at the beginning of the war and owed their ultimate -defeat to the fact that Cleisthenes built a fleet and destroyed their -naval supremacy[1312]. It looks very much as though Cleisthenes was -trying to win for Sicyon the sea-borne trade that had been flowing into -Krisa. With the aid of a fleet that must for the time have made Sicyon a -really important naval power[1313] he crushes the trade rival across the -water and wins its place for his own city and himself[1314]. - -Bury assigns to Cleisthenes the leading part in the reorganizing of the -Pythian games at Delphi after the Sacred War[1315], and pictures the -Sicyonian tyrant as doing for the Delphic Pythia much what Periander and -Peisistratus are depicted as doing for the Corinthian Isthmia and the -Athenian Panathenaia and Pheidon very possibly did for the great games -at Olympia. Bury’s general picture of the early tyrants as founders or -reorganizers of these great Greek games is quite in harmony with the -chronological evidence and with all that is known about the various -tyrants’ activities and characters[1316]. Developing these games might -well be part of a broad commercial policy, the more so as the games were -under divine patronage and ensured periodic opportunities for peaceful -intercourse in an age of chronic warfare[1317]. Under such circumstances -gatherings of this kind naturally tend to become the “commercial affair -(ἐμπορικὸν πρᾶγμα)” that the Delian festival admittedly grew to -be[1318]. Everything known about the early Greek tyrants shows how -capable they were of turning such a tendency to good account. That -Delphi in particular had from early times a commercial character has -already been conjectured by Cornford[1319]. In the early years of the -Sicyonian tyranny the greatness of the Euboean cities Chalcis and -Eretria had begun to be steadily on the decline. The time had come to -change the course of the Eastern part of this great trade route and -instead of Krisa, Delphi, Thebes, Euboea to substitute another line, in -which Sicyon and probably Athens should be dominating points. This is -probably what Cleisthenes had in view when he so strongly supported -Solon in the Sacred War. - -It follows that to make him the founder of the Delphic Pythia is a view -that cannot be accepted without reservations. The available evidence -represents Cleisthenes as rather the rival than the champion of Delphi. -A Pindar scholiast already quoted states that he instituted Pythian -games in his own Sicyon. There is no other evidence for Pythian games at -Sicyon, but Herodotus gives a long account of the way in which -Cleisthenes radically reformed the chief existing festival in the city. -This festival, like the Delphic Pythia of the days before the Sacred -War, was devoted largely to musical and poetical competitions. Its -patron was the ancient hero Adrastus, whose connexions were all with -Argos, the Dorian city whose influence in Sicyon Cleisthenes was bent on -overthrowing. Cleisthenes ejected Adrastus from Sicyon by the curious -process of burying beside him the body of his bitterest enemy, the -Theban Melanippus (which he borrowed for the purpose from Thebes), and -then removing the body of Adrastus which was assumed to depart -voluntarily from so unpleasant a neighbourhood. - -The reformed festival was held in honour of this Theban hero and the -Theban wine god Dionysus. The ejected Adrastus had been one of the -leaders in the famous expedition of the Seven against Thebes[1320]. -There can be little doubt that when the festival was instituted -Cleisthenes was aiming at an entente with the great inland city that -formed the first main stage on the route from Delphi to Euboea and the -North. But the attempt was a failure. Thebes was conspicuously -unrepresented at the wooing of Cleisthenes’ daughter Agariste[1321], and -the tyrant is furious when one of the suitors performs what has -plausibly been suggested to have been a Theban dance[1322]. Relations -with Delphi may have run a similar course. In the first celebration of -the reformed Delphian Pythia Cleisthenes competed; and the way that he -approached the Delphic oracle before reorganizing his own Sicyonian -festival shows that he wanted an understanding with the authorities -there, to whom his family was perhaps largely indebted for its -throne[1323]. But the oracle would have nothing to do with Cleisthenes’ -proposals and used abusive language to the tyrant for making them. -Relations between the god and the tyrant can hardly have remained -cordial after this incident and the Thebans presumably sided with the -god. - -Whatever the precise outcome of Cleisthenes’ policy with Delphi and -Thebes the likelihood remains that one main object of that policy had -been to give a new direction to the city’s trade. We have been assuming -that the Sicyon of the tyrants was an important centre of commerce and -industry. This has been denied by Eduard Meyer[1324]. The evidence is -meagre: but as far as it goes it is entirely against Meyer’s hypothesis, -which makes it hard to explain how the city became so great and -prosperous at this time. We have seen already that Cleisthenes possessed -a powerful fleet and that his proceedings suggest far-reaching -commercial designs. The evidence as to industry points in the same -direction. Some distinguished archaeologists have actually assigned to -the Sicyon of Andreas and Orthagoras one of the leading industries of -the period, the making of the remarkably fine pottery now usually known -as Proto-Corinthian. Their arguments are by no means decisive[1325], and -in any case there is nothing to associate the Sicyonian tyrants -personally with Sicyonian potteries; but there are literary notices -which point to the Orthagorids as having been, like the other early -tyrants, builders and, presumably, employers of local labour. The -Olympian “treasury” which Pausanias thought to have been put up by the -tyrant Myron[1326] has been shown by excavation to have been fifth -century work[1327]. But in this treasury Pausanias saw two “bronze -chambers” (models of buildings?) one of which bore an inscription saying -that it was a dedication of Myron and the people of Sicyon. This -inscription may have misled Pausanias into ascribing to Myron the -building that contained it[1328]. The bronze chamber on which the -dedication was inscribed was on a large scale. It weighed 500 Aeginetan -talents or about 19 tons. From towards the end of the period of the -tyranny Sicyon was famous for its school of sculptors, who worked -largely in bronze, and though no statement has been preserved as to the -workmanship of Myron’s dedication, it may not unreasonably be used as -evidence that the Sicyonians of his reign were already experts in the -working of bronze[1329]. As regards buildings, Cleisthenes with the -spoils that he gained in the Sacred War is known to have erected at -Sicyon a magnificent portico[1330]. - -Pollux, the lexicographer of the second century A.D., says that the -Sicyonians in the time of the tyrants (as also the Athenians under the -Peisistratids) wore a particular kind of rough woollen dress “that they -might be ashamed to go down into the city[1331].” The statement may be -true and the explanation false. If both are accepted, it by no means -follows that the policy of the Sicyonian tyrants was dominantly -agricultural[1332]. We may possibly have here a record of a measure -intended to prevent the commercialized city from attracting to itself -the agricultural population that was of such vital importance to the -normal self-sufficing Greek city-state. There is little doubt that the -government of the Sicyonian tyrants was popular with the lower classes. -Aristotle declares that it lasted so long because they treated their -subjects so well[1333]. If Herodotus and Ephorus give a less favourable -account of them, the reason is probably that their sources were -aristocratic and anti-tyrannical[1334]. - -[Sidenote: Megara.] - -The tyranny at Megara is associated with the single name of -Theagenes[1335], whose reign is dated by the support that he gave to his -son-in-law Cylon, winner of an Olympian victory in 640 B.C.[1336] and -would-be tyrant of Athens. - -According to Aristotle in the _Rhetoric_ Theagenes, like Peisistratus -and Dionysius, scheming to make himself tyrant asked for the (usual) -bodyguard, and having secured it became tyrant. But as pointed out in -the first chapter this only shows that winning the tyranny meant -possessing an armed force. It says nothing as to how the armed force was -acquired. Armed forces are not to be had for the asking. For the way in -which Theagenes got his our only evidence is another passage of -Aristotle, this time from the _Politics_, which says that Theagenes -secured his power “after slaughtering the flocks and herds of the -wealthy[1337].” - -In the latter part of the fifth century “most of the Megareans got their -living by making exomides” (the normal dress of the poorer -classes)[1338]. Meyer assumes this to have been a fourth (_sic_) century -development, but altogether against the evidence[1339]. Not only is the -woollen industry known to have been one of the main occupations of -Megara in the fifth century, but the prosperity of the city in the -seventh century is only comprehensible if we assume that it was already -engaged in the woollen trade. As observed by Busolt[1340], Megaris has -on the whole a barren stony soil that was mostly suited only for the -pasture of its numerous flocks of sheep. The Megareans must have -manufactured goods to take to their distant colonies, from which they -imported corn and other raw material. - -The colonial activities of Megara went back well into the seventh -century. Some of her colonies such as Chalcedon and Byzantium and -Heraclea Pontica[1341] lay on the route of the Argonauts that led to the -land of the golden fleece. Other seventh century colonies of Megara lay -in the far West in Sicily, where she founded Megara Hyblaea in the -latter part of the eighth century and Selinus in the second half of the -seventh. - -Thus Megara’s colonial activities in the seventh century correspond -closely with those of Miletus, the city that colonized most of the ports -of the Black Sea and owed so much of her wealth to her trade in wool -with the Italian Sybaris[1342]. - -That Megara herself was engaged in the woollen industry at this early -date is made not unlikely by several fragments of evidence. Demeter at -Megara bore the title Malophoros. “Various statements,” says Pausanias, -“are made about this title, and in particular that Demeter was named -Malophoros by those who first reared sheep in the land[1343].” The word -Malophoros may mean either “Sheep-bearing” or “Apple-bearing,” but the -account of the title in Pausanias shows that the Megareans understood it -as meaning “Sheep-bearing,” and regarded it as of high antiquity and -certainly as older than the days when the flocks of the well-to-do were -slaughtered by Theagenes. - -According to Pliny[1344] fulling was invented by a Megarean named -Nikias. Buechsenschuetz[1345] infers from this passage that fulling or -milling was of great importance in the ancient wool industry. -Bluemner[1346] quotes it to prove the importance of the industry at -Megara. The most important inference to be drawn from it both of them -seem to have overlooked, namely that the industry at Megara must have -been of high antiquity. - -The care bestowed by the Megareans on sheep-breeding is alluded to by -the sixth century Theognis - - κριοὺς μὲν καὶ ὄνους διζήμεθα, Κύρνε, καὶ ἵππους - εὐγενέας[1347]. - -Megarean woollen goods at the end of the fifth century were much worn by -Athenian slaves who, as Cauer observes[1348], came largely from the -region of the early Megarean colonies. - -It seems therefore not unlikely that when Theagenes slaughtered the -flocks of the wealthy at Megara his blow was aimed at a class of -capitalists whose wealth was already based on the woollen trade, as was -that of the direct ancestors in Tudor times of our own modern -capitalists[1349]. - -This possibility has been recognized by Poehlmann[1350] who quotes -Xenophon on the Megarean wool industry in reference to Theagenes. -Poehlmann imagines the blow as dealt by the discontented masses and -inspired by simple hatred. But our one authority attributes it not to -the rebellious masses but to Theagenes himself. On a point of definite -fact like this Aristotle deserves to be taken precisely as he expresses -himself. Can it be that Theagenes’ coup was a simple but effective means -of securing for himself the monopoly of the Megarean woollen industry? - -If this was in fact the aim of Theagenes he was merely anticipating the -methods of certain modern monopolists. In December 1888 the Whiskey -Combination in the United States is said to have blown up a troublesome -independent still in Chicago[1351]. There are records of a similar -attempt to blow up rival works at Buffalo[1352]. For these cases I quote -again from a work on the danger of a new tyranny of wealth that the -writer, whose book appeared in 1894, thought at the time to be -threatening the United States. - -The most lasting memorial that Theagenes left behind him was the water -conduit that he constructed for the city[1353]. The extant remains seem -to belong to a later date, but this is no reason for either post-dating -the tyrant or not accepting him as its constructor. The remains now to -be seen may well be due to a reconstruction, perhaps by the famous -Megarean Eupalinus, who constructed the Samian waterworks for -Polycrates. Underground conduits like the Megarean were being made half -a century before the reign of Theagenes, as is shown by the underground -canal constructed by Hezekiah to bring to Jerusalem the waters of Miriam -(Gihon)[1354]. Tyranny at Megara was short lived. The only tyrant ended -his life in exile. - - When they had banished Theagenes the Megareans for a short while - behaved with moderation ... but after that they began behaving - outrageously to the rich: in particular the poor entered their - houses and demanded to be entertained and feasted sumptuously, and - treated them all with violence and insult if they did not get what - they desired. Finally they passed a decree and recovered from the - money-lenders the interest that they happened to have paid. - -This passage of Plutarch[1355] throws no direct light on either the -character or the basis of Theagenes’ power. The outbreak that it -describes may have been due to the comparative weakness of the new -government. It is equally possible that it occurred because the fall of -the tyranny had made things much worse for the working classes, on whose -support and favour Theagenes had probably based his power[1356]. - -This period of Megarean history is better known than the corresponding -phase of any other Greek city, thanks to the verses of Theognis. Their -evidence for the character of the early tyrannies has been discussed in -Chapter I. If, as there maintained, his exhortations not to be won over -by gains to exalt any tyrant and his complaints about tradesmen -controlling the state all point to fears of a tyranny of wealth, then it -is particularly likely that his alarm may have had a historical basis in -the career of Theagenes. - -[Sidenote: Miletus.] - -At Miletus during the seventh and sixth centuries[1357] there appear to -have been several periods of tyranny with intervals of anarchy in -between. The most famous and powerful of the Milesian tyrants was -Thrasybulus, whose reign must have begun towards the end of the seventh -century. While he was tyrant the city enjoyed great material prosperity. -Then in the middle of the sixth she was afflicted with two generations -of civil war, after which there came a great revival of prosperity under -the tyrant Histiaeus. Plutarch records the names of two other tyrants, -Thoas and Damasenor, but only to introduce an account of the state of -things that followed their overthrow. They may have been joint -successors of Thrasybulus[1358], much as the Athenians tended to regard -Peisistratus as having been succeeded by Hippias and Hipparchus ruling -conjointly. Or possibly Plutarch is mentioning two successive rulers of -a distinct period of tyranny, the latter of whom only was deposed, in -which case they are probably to be put before Thrasybulus[1359], -somewhere about the middle of the seventh century. - -The fall of Thoas and Damasenor was followed by a struggle between two -parties called Ploutis (?) and Cheiromache, names which sound remarkably -like Capital and Labour. - -There is no certainty as to either the etymological or the historical -meaning of these names. Plutarch seems to identify the Ploutis (?) -faction with a body called Aeinautai (always on shipboard)[1360] and the -reading Plontis, connected with πλοῖον (ship), has been proposed by -Plass[1361]. Cheiromache again means not hand-workers but hand-fighters, -a name that need not have any industrial implication. Hand-fighters -might be just people who did not wear swords, the lower classes -generally. But Cheiromache is said by Eustathius to have been a synonym -for χειρώναξ, a common word for artizan[1362], and Suidas speaks of -rival parties in Miletus composed of the wealthy (πλούσιοι) and the -manual labourers (Γέργηθες, s.v., explained as χειρώνακτες), and though -the period to which he is referring is quite uncertain, he still lends -some support to the Capital and Labour interpretation of Plutarch’s -Ploutis (?) and Cheiromache[1363]. The latter name would have been given -to the party by its opponents, much as though enemies of a modern labour -party should call them the Strikers or Down-Toolers. The other name for -labour (Γέργιθες or Γέργηθες) is said by Heraclides Ponticus[1364] to -have been given to it by the faction of the wealthy, a statement quite -compatible with the explanation of the name as derived from a place and -denoting the poor subject Carians, the descendants of the pre-Hellenic -population of the Milesian territory[1365]. Perhaps we may see a hint -that Gergethes and Cheiromache were alternative names both given to -labour by its rich opponents in the reply given by the oracle to the -party of the rich after they had been brutally massacring the party of -the poor. “I too” says the god “take heed of the murder of the unwarlike -Gergithes[1366].” The rebuke gains in point if the Gergithes had been -also called Cheiromachoi, the manual _fighters_[1367]. - -Of the early careers of the Milesian tyrants we know practically -nothing. Aristotle indeed[1368] refers to Miletus as a place where -tyranny arose from the great power possessed by the magistrate called -prytanis. But as argued already in discussing the office of polemarch -held before his tyranny by Cypselus, a position of this kind does not -by itself explain a tyrant’s rise to supreme power. Moreover in the -case of Miletus there is nothing to show which tyrant Aristotle is -referring to. When on the throne Thrasybulus pursued the policy of -“cutting off the heads of those ears of corn which he saw higher than -the rest” or in other words of “putting to death those who were -eminent among his subjects[1369].” It is fairly certain that a ruler -who pursued this policy did not rest his power on the support of the -upper classes. One of the few anecdotes about the tyrant tells how he -outwitted the king of Lydia by a misleading display of corn in the -Milesian market-place[1370]. - -The accession of Histiaeus seems to have synchronized with a revival of -the commercial prosperity of Miletus. Histiaeus was the friend and -vassal of Darius of Persia, and the basis of his power must therefore -not be sought exclusively in the internal conditions of Miletus. But on -the other hand the Persians seem to have been remarkably free from any -tendency to Persianize the nations they subdued. Their sins were those -rather of Abdul Hamid than of the Young Turks. Purely internal -conditions continued to operate much as before[1371]. - -In the absence therefore of all evidence as to how Histiaeus came by his -power[1372] it becomes interesting to see how he sought to expand it. -The chance came to him when he had won Darius’ confidence and gratitude -in his Scythian campaign and the Great King invited him to choose his -reward. “He asked for Myrcinus in Edonia, wishing to found in it a -city[1373].” Darius granted his request and the foundation was begun. -But when the news of this gift reached Megabazus, the able Persian -officer who had reduced Edonia and other parts of Thrace and Macedonia, -he was much alarmed, and remonstrated with his master: - - O King, what manner of thing hast thou done, granting to a clever - and cunning Greek to acquire a city in Thrace? Where there is an - inexhaustible supply of timber for building ships and oars, and - mines of silver, and a large population of Greeks living in the - neighbourhood and a large population of barbarians: if they get a - patron (προστάτης) they will do what he directs day and night. Now - therefore do thou stop him from doing this, that thou be not - involved in a war against thine own[1374]. - -As pointed out by Grundy[1375] Myrcinus occupied a most important site -on great strategic and commercial highways. But there is no reason to -suspect Herodotus when he tells us that the town owed its importance -first and foremost not to its geographical situation but to its minerals -and forests. It is as a great mine-owner and shipbuilder and the -employer of hosts of miners and shipbuilders and seamen that Histiaeus -threatens to make himself a ruler sufficiently powerful to be a danger -to the Great King himself[1376]. - -[Sidenote: Ephesus.] - -The earliest tyrant of Ephesus appears to have been Pythagoras, who -overthrew the government of the Basilidae. Baton of Sinope[1377], who -wrote a history of the tyrants of Ephesus[1378], states that Pythagoras -lived “before Cyrus the Persian.” This seems to be rather an -understatement of the tyrant’s antiquity, since we hear of two other -tyrants, Melas and Pindaros, of whom the latter was son and successor of -the former and was deprived of his throne by Croesus[1379], and of yet -another pair, by name Athenagoras and Komas, who lived at the same time -as the poet Hipponax and must therefore be assigned to about the middle -of the sixth century[1380], while during part of the reign of Croesus, -after the fall of Pindaros, Ephesus appears to have enjoyed a moderate -democracy guided by the aesymnetes Aristarchus[1381]. All this leaves -little room for Pythagoras in the period just preceding Cyrus, and since -too the Basilidae were almost certainly one of the hereditary -aristocracies, like the Bacchiadae of Corinth, that overthrew the -hereditary monarchy in most Greek cities before the end of the dark -ages, it becomes probable that Pythagoras flourished at the beginning of -the sixth century or possibly even in the seventh[1382]. - -According to our only authority Suidas, who quotes Baton on the date of -Pythagoras and very possibly used him for the rest of his notice, -Pythagoras displayed an insatiable passion for money (ἔρως χρημάτων -ἄμετρος) and showed himself a cruel tyrant (τύραννος πικρότατος) but -“with the people and the multitude he both was and appeared to be well -liked, sometimes making them hopeful by his promises, sometimes secretly -distributing small gratuities[1383].” “Those however who enjoyed -reputation or power he plundered and subjected to confiscations[1384].” -Suidas deals only with the tyrant on the throne and draws plainly from a -most unfriendly source[1385]: but as far as he goes he suggests that the -power of Pythagoras was based on wealth. - -The tyrant Pindarus, who was overthrown by Croesus, was a grandson of -Alyattes, Croesus’ father and predecessor[1386]. Ephesus was one of the -chief termini of the great caravan route from the Far East that ran to -Sardis and then branched to several places on the coast. In the chapter -on Lydia we have had occasion to notice the story of the eighth century -Lydian Ardys, who when banished from his native land went into business -at Cyme (another of these branch termini) and from there returned as -ruler to Sardis. Radet may therefore be right in thinking that the -Ephesian tyrants shared with the Lydian the monopoly of the trade that -traversed this great road[1387]. The overthrow of Pindarus is perhaps to -be associated with the story of the financial dealings of Croesus while -his father Alyattes was still on the throne[1388]. To pave the way to -his own succession as against his half brother, the half Greek -Pantaleon, Croesus has to borrow large sums of money. He first tries in -Sardis, and failing there proceeds to Ephesus, where he succeeds in -raising money, not however from the house of Melas, but from a certain -Pamphaes the son of Theocharides. It is hardly rash to assume that the -tyrant family at Ephesus were putting their money on the half Greek -candidate, and that Pindarus fell because his family had taken the wrong -side in this great battle of high finance. - -[Sidenote: Leontini.] - -Panaitios of Leontini was the first in Sicily to seize the tyranny -(Panaitios primus in Sicilia arripuit tyrannidem), which he is stated to -have done a few years before the end of the seventh century[1389]. The -stratagem by which he made himself tyrant is described by -Polyaenus[1390]. The people of Leontini were at war with Megara, and -Panaitios was polemarch. The actual coup was a matter of disarming the -rich citizens who served on horseback (τοῖς εὐπόροις καὶ ἱππεῦσι), which -he did with the help of their grooms. But before carrying out this _coup -d’état_ Panaitios had started a conflict between these rich knights and -the poor who served on foot (τοὺς πένητας καὶ πεζούς). Aristotle[1391] -adds little. He classes Panaitios with “Cypselus in Corinth, -Peisistratus in Athens, and Dionysius in Syracuse, and others who in the -same way (became tyrants) from demagogy,” a view that has already been -dealt with[1392]. His other statement, that the government of Panaitios -succeeded an oligarchy, is credible but unilluminating[1393]. - -[Sidenote: Agrigentum.] - - Phalaris of Agrigentum, a tax collector, when the citizens wished to - erect a temple of Zeus Polieus for two hundred talents on the - citadel as being rocky and strong and for the further reason that it - would be pious to give the god the highest place, undertook, if he - was given charge of the work, to have the best craftsmen and provide - the material cheaply and offer sound securities for the money. The - people trusted him, thinking that thanks to his life as a - tax-collector he had experience of such proceedings. So taking the - public money he hired many foreigners and bought many prisoners and - carried up to the citadel much material of stone, timber, iron. And - when the foundations were already being dug, he sent down his herald - to proclaim “whoever gives information against those who stole the - stone and iron on the citadel shall receive such and such a reward.” - The people were annoyed at the report of the material being stolen. - “Well then,” said he, “allow me to enclose the acropolis.” The city - allowed him to enclose it and to raise a wall round it. He released - the prisoners, armed them with the stones and hatchets and axes, - made an attack during the Thesmophoria, killed most of the men, and - having established himself as master of women and children, became - the tyrant of the city of Agrigentum[1394]. - -For over two centuries the name of Phalaris has been chiefly associated -with the famous controversy between the Cambridge Bentley and the Oxford -Boyle as to the authenticity of the letters ascribed to him. The -spuriousness of these letters was so convincingly established by the -Cambridge scholar, that everyone since then seems to have shrunk from -attributing historical value to anything whatsoever that Phalaris is -reported to have done. It so happens that the best known tradition about -Phalaris tells of his extreme cruelty[1395], and more particularly how -he did his victims to death by roasting them alive in a brazen -bull[1396]. This bull story has no doubt helped further to discredit -Phalaris as a strictly historical character. - -Yet there can be no dispute that Phalaris did make himself tyrant of -Agrigentum and that his cruelty made a lasting impression on the people -whom he ruled. His existence and importance is shown by a whole series -of references to him that begins with Pindar[1397] and includes -allusions in Aristotle[1398]. Considering that the tyrant probably died -only one generation before Pindar was born[1399], there is no reason why -a trustworthy tradition about him should not have been preserved and -more particularly why the account of his early days in Polyaenus should -not have a historical basis. - -If it has, its significance is important. It means that Phalaris owed -his tyranny in the ultimate instance to his skill in finance and more -immediately to the control of large sums of money that gave him great -influence over the lower classes who earned their living by manual -labour[1400]. - -Polyaenus cannot be decisively confirmed. But still less can he be -decisively discredited. The story itself suggests that its source was -the temple of Zeus Polieus, and a temple founded in the sixth century -may well have kept some record, oral or written, of the days of its -foundation. There is of course the possibility of forgery, but forgeries -generally have some motive, such as gain or glory or love of the -sensational. No such motive can easily be imputed to this narrative of -Polyaenus, whose picture of Phalaris is borne out by notices in various -other writers. - -Lucian for instance makes the tyrant a great builder and great financier -and a great patron of the common people[1401]. Lucian’s Phalaris is -represented as defending himself at Delphi against the charge of -cruelty: he certainly utters many paradoxes in so doing; but the point -of the picture is that it is based on the received tradition, and it may -fairly be used as evidence on a question such as that which is being -here considered. - -Aristotle classes Phalaris among the tyrants who owed their position to -some high office that they had previously held[1402], a statement which -is good evidence for Phalaris as a historical personage and as far as it -goes accords with Polyaenus. - -“When the Agrigentines were rid of Phalaris they decreed that nobody -should wear a blue-grey cloak: for the servants of the tyrant wore -aprons (περιζώματα) of blue-grey[1403].” The prohibition of these -blue-grey aprons makes it look as if the men who overthrew the tyranny -of Phalaris thought it necessary to disband his army of uniformed -employees. - -Further the part of the narrative of Polyaenus that most concerns us -here can claim a certain probability from what is known of an early -namesake and fellow-townsman of the Syracusan tyrant Agathocles. -According to Diodorus[1404] this earlier Agathocles, who lived while -Syracuse was still under a landed aristocracy called γεωμόροι, probably -about 700 B.C.[1405], - - Being chosen to have charge of the building of the temple of Athena, - picked out the finest of the stones that were being quarried and met - the expense out of his own pocket (τὴν μὲν δαπάνην ἐκ τῆς ἰδίας - οὐσίας ἐποιεῖτο), but misused the stones and built a costly house. - At this they say the divine power gave forth a sign: Agathocles was - struck by lightning and consumed by fire along with all his house. - The Geomoroi confiscated his property to the state, although the - kleronomoi (the financial officials) showed that he had taken - nothing of the monies of the temple or of the state. They devoted - his house to the gods and forbade those who came there to set foot - in it, and to this day it is called the embrontaion (_i.e._ the - place struck by lightning). - -The positions of Phalaris and Agathocles as described by Polyaenus and -Diodorus are very similar. Both are in charge of the building of a great -temple, the Greek word in each case being ἐπιστάτης, which means -literally superintendent, but is rather a vague term and appears to -include the idea of contractor[1406]. Both again misuse their position, -and in neither case is the offender charged with misappropriation. -Phalaris secures himself a tyranny, Agathocles builds himself a house. -But the house is a very special sort of house, and though the builder is -specifically acquitted of any dishonest dealings about it, it brings -down on him the wrath both of the gods and of the government. The gods -burn him and his house: the government confiscate his property. What -sort of a house was it that had such disastrous consequences for its -builder? A close parallel is offered by the history of the Roman -Maelius, who is said in the fifth century B.C. to have had his house -pulled down and his property confiscated. In the case of Agathocles the -gods, when they destroyed his house, are said to send a sign -(ἐπισημαίνειν): in that of Maelius the offence that caused his house to -be demolished is pronounced to be not a scelus but a monstrum. The -charge that brought down on Maelius these extreme penalties was that of -aiming at the throne. Maelius was extremely rich, and had a large army -of clients, and we may reasonably infer that his house was so severely -dealt with because it looked too much like a royal palace. Considering -the analogies in the story of Agathocles with that of Maelius on the one -hand and that of Phalaris on the other, it looks not unlikely that the -exception taken to the house of Agathocles was due to its palatial -character. Private dwellings in early Greek cities were notoriously -simple and unpretentious[1407]. A house in which it was possible to -employ stones intended for a great temple was obviously quite the -reverse. It would challenge comparison with the government buildings and -might be used as the rallying-place for an armed attack[1408] upon the -government, and it was this in all probability that brought on it so -terrible a fate. - -The stories of Agathocles and Maelius lend support to the view that -Polyaenus in his account of the rise of Phalaris is describing the -normal way in which tyrannies were established at this early period in -Sicily and Italy. If so, the normal tyrant in early Sicily and Italy was -some very rich man who used his riches to secure financial control of -some large section of the labouring classes and this control was -sometimes secured by undertaking big building operations which provided -not only continuous work for numerous employees but often too a strong -and imposing headquarters that could soon be converted into the castle -or palace from which he ruled the whole state[1409]. - -[Sidenote: Cumae.] - -Aristodemus of Cumae is dated by the fact that he gave shelter to -Tarquinius Superbus when banished from Rome[1410]. “In those days Cumae -was renowned throughout Italy for its wealth and power[1411].” Before he -became tyrant he is said to have distinguished himself as a -soldier[1412]. But it was not as a soldier that he is represented as -securing the tyranny. “He won over the people by turning demagogue ... -relieving many of the poor out of his own purse ... distributing money -to them man by man, and depositing for the common good the presents he -had received from the people of Aricia[1413].” At the end of his reign -he is represented as employing citizens on a large scale on manual -labour: “he chanced about that time to be making a trench round the -place, a work neither necessary nor useful, but merely because he wished -to weary and exhaust the citizens with toils and labours. For each was -ordered to remove a certain extent of earth[1414].” The chronology of -the tyrant’s career is not altogether easy and the narrative not -entirely credible[1415], but we appear to have a tyrant of the early -type, taking a prominent part in war and politics but relying largely at -any rate on the control of labour and the power of wealth. - - - - - Chapter X. (a) _Capitalist Despots of the Age of Aristotle_, (b) _the - Money Power of the Rulers of Pergamum_, (c) _Protogenes of Olbia_ - - -[Sidenote: (_a_) Capitalist despots of the days of Aristotle.] - -Stress has been laid on the influence that has been exercised by -Dionysius of Syracuse upon all who have written about the early tyranny -since he came to power. This of course does not mean that the -military-demagogue type of tyrant, of which Dionysius is the supreme -example, was never at all anticipated in any of its features by any of -the rulers of the seventh and sixth centuries. Nor does it mean that the -new order of things that culminated in Dionysius completely swamped the -old. Aristotle himself was personally connected with a tyrant who -appears to illustrate the survival into the fourth century of the -seventh and sixth century type. The ruler in question, Hermias tyrant of -Assos and Atarneus - - was a eunuch, the slave of a certain banker: he went to Athens and - attended the lectures of Plato and Aristotle, and returning he - shared the tyranny of his master who had previously secured - (ἐπιθεμένῳ) the places round Atarneus and Assos. Subsequently he - succeeded him and sent for Aristotle and married his niece to - him[1416]. - -In this “slave, banker, philosopher and despot” Leaf sees a tyrant who -owed his position to his wealth[1417]. He quotes Euaion, the pupil of -Plato[1418], who not far off to the north at Lampsacus “lent money to -the city on the security of the Acropolis, and, when the city defaulted, -wanted to become tyrant, until the Lampsacenes gathered against him and -after paying him the money cast him out[1419].” On the other side of -Assos, at Cyme, the public porticoes once passed into the hands of some -bankers who had lent money to the city on that security[1420]. Leaf -might have gone on to quote the case of Timaeus the Cyzicene, who, like -Euaion and perhaps Hermias, had been a pupil of Plato: - - Timaeus the Cyzicene having granted bonuses (ἐπιδοὺς) of money and - corn to the citizens and having on that account won credit among the - Cyzicenes as being a worthy man, after a short while made an attempt - on the city (ἐπέθετο; cp. ἐπιθεμένῳ above of the predecessor of - Hermias) by means of Aridaios[1421]. - -The attempt failed but there can be no doubt that Timaeus like Euaion -“wanted to become tyrant” by means of his wealth. - -It is curious to notice that the method of securing power practised by -the pupils of Plato and Aristotle is precisely that which was prescribed -by our own Doctor Johnson: “No, Sir, the way to make sure of power and -influence is by lending money confidentially to your neighbours at a -small interest or perhaps at no interest at all, and having their bonds -in your possession[1422].” In Aristotle’s own day it appears to have -been followed, though without success, in the greatest commercial city -of the age: - - After this Anno, a man of Carthage, who in personal wealth was more - than a match for the state, was absorbed with a desire to seize - supreme power.... He stirred up the slaves that with their aid he - might suddenly crush the unsuspecting state.... This happened in the - days of Philip[1423]. - -Thus there is a basis for Leaf’s suggestion that Euboulos of Assos, the -master and predecessor of Hermias, had made himself tyrant by similar -means[1424]. But if Aristotle had before him the career of Hanno the -Carthaginian, and if a whole group of his own fellow-students made the -attempt, and in one case at least successfully, to become financier -despots in a corner of the world particularly familiar to the -philosopher[1425], how are we to explain the fact that his writings take -no account of the commercial tyrant? Once more, if I am not mistaken, -the cause is largely Dionysius. If, as seems probable, there was this -late outcrop of attempts at a commercial tyranny, none the less the type -had long ceased to play any great part in history[1426]. Hanno was a -failure: moreover he tampered with the slaves of Carthage and this -enabled Aristotle to classify him with Pausanias the Spartan. For -Aristotle the tyrant is a soldier or a demagogue or both. Plutocracy -with him means oligarchy[1427]. As he himself says, “if one individual -possesses more than the rest of the wealthy, on the oligarchic principle -it is right that he should rule alone[1428].” If forced to catalogue the -government of a commercial despot he would probably have described it as -an oligarchy of one. But it is doubtful whether the government of -Hermias was strictly speaking the rule of a single individual. - -An inscription now in the British Museum speaks repeatedly of Ἑρμίας καὶ -οἱ ἑταῖροι[1429] which Leaf translates and explains into “Hermias and -company, Bankers and Despots.” The precise nature of these companions is -uncertain: but their repeated mention in a treaty suggests that Hermias -tried to avoid the appearances of single rule[1430]. Lastly the personal -element may have had its influence even with the great philosopher. Not -only was he in close personal connexion with Hermias; but his one -deviation into poetry, his remarkable ode to Virtue[1431], was written -in honour of Hermias after his fall. According to one version of the -story the philosopher’s devotion to the memory of his friend cost him -his life[1432]. Plainly for Aristotle the ruler of Atarneus was no -tyrant[1433], and it follows that Euaion and Timaeus, even if their -efforts had been successful, would not have been so either. Plato on the -other hand would have particular cause to regard as a tyrant the -Syracusan ruler by whom he is said to have been sold into slavery for -twenty minae[1434]. In short this group of would-be philosopher kings -probably did as much as Dionysius himself to blind Aristotle and later -writers to the true nature of seventh and sixth century tyranny[1435]. - -[Sidenote: (_b_) The money power of the rulers of Pergamum (283–133 - B.C.).] - -If Aristotle had lived another forty years he might have witnessed quite -near Atarneus the rise of another and much more notable monarchy, that -of the Attalids of Pergamum, which was also based almost exclusively on -wealth. Pergamum had become the fortified treasury of Lysimachus when he -succeeded to the Thracian dominions of Alexander the Great. The keeping -of the fort and the 9000 talents of treasure that it contained was -entrusted to a certain Philetairos. He was a eunuch, but well brought -up, and he showed himself worthy of the trust. In spite of, or rather -perhaps as the result of, the quarrels of the Diadochoi, he continued -for twenty years master of the fort and of the money[1436]. There seems -little doubt that Philetairos was of humble birth[1437], and that he -owed his rise to this gift of finance which secured him first the -management and then the possession of these 9000 talents. He began his -independent career by going over from Lysimachus, whose realm lay mainly -in Europe, to Seleucus, the most able of the Diadochoi in Asia[1438]. -Shortly afterwards Seleucus was murdered by Ptolemy Keraunos, the Greek -king of Egypt; but Philetairos, who believed firmly in the fortunes of -the Seleucids, secured the friendship of Antiochus, the son and -successor of Seleucus, by buying the body of the murdered king at a -heavy price from Keraunos and sending it to Antiochus[1439]. Philetairos -was always ready to draw upon his 9000 talents if by doing so he could -purchase power. When the people of the neighbouring town of Pitane were -in debt to the extent of 380 talents, Philetairos advanced a portion of -that sum, and thereby secured influence over that city[1440]. Gifts were -made to Cyzicus with similar intentions and results[1441]. The island of -Aegina became a Pergamene possession for the price of 30 talents[1442]. -These proceedings are typical of the way in which the rulers of Pergamum -established and maintained their position. As Holm observes[1443] their -power was a money power. Like every other political power that has -hitherto arisen, that of the Attalids was partly military. Soon after -the death of Philetairos and the accession of Attalus, the second ruler -of the dynasty, Asia Minor was overrun by the Celtic hordes which -finally settled down to a peaceful life in what was known thenceforth as -Galatia. The promiscuous maraudings of these barbarians were checked and -eventually crushed by Attalus and his successors. But the Attalids were -still more notable for their works of peace. Under their government -Pergamum became one of the most active centres of art and industry in -the whole world. The city, elaborately constructed in terraces on a -lofty hillside, offered a remarkably successful example of scientific -town-planning, and must have involved a large and highly organized army -of architects, builders, masons, and the like. The Pergamene school of -sculpture flourished exceedingly. We owe to it Lord Byron’s dying -gladiator, who has long since been recognized as a copy of a dying -Galatian carved at Pergamum to commemorate a victory of Attalus I over -the Celtic invader. Much of Pergamene art is exaggerated and ugly, but -that does not diminish its economic significance, and Mommsen is -justified in describing Attalus I as the Lorenzo de’ Medici of -antiquity[1444]. We have already compared the Medici with the early -Greek tyrants. But it is not merely that the Pergamene rulers and early -tyrants like Gyges have a common resemblance to the Italian merchant -princes of the early renaissance. A distinct resemblance between the -Attalids and the house of Gyges has been already recognized and -developed by Adolph Holm. The two powers are much the same -geographically; both are the great connecting link between the Greek -Aegean and the Asiatic lands that lie to the east of it; both organize -the forces of material prosperity against barbaric invasions from the -north; both have money as the basis of their power[1445]. - -The history of Philetairos and his successors at Pergamum increases the -probability that Leaf is right in his picture of the banker despots of -the days of Plato and Aristotle. [Sidenote: (_c_) The rich Protogenes, -financial director of Olbia about 200 B.C.] The picture is scarcely -complete enough to be quite convincing, but it may be supplemented and -confirmed from the history of a financial magnate named Protogenes, who -flourished at Olbia probably towards the end of the third century B.C. - -Protogenes is known only from a single inscription put up during his -lifetime to record his benefactions to his native city[1446]. The date -of the inscription is not quite certain. The lettering points to the -second century B.C. but does not exclude a rather earlier date, and a -reference in the inscription to danger threatening Olbia from certain -Galatians rather favours a date before 213 B.C. - -Within the space of three years Protogenes made gifts to his city -amounting to 12,700 gold pieces and made up of the following items: four -times he contributes to help buy off the barbarians who at this period -were constantly threatening the city; twice he pays for repairs to the -city walls; he built or repaired the public granary, the bazaar gateway, -and the barges that brought the stone for these building operations; he -redeemed for 100 pieces of gold the city plate, which was about to be -put in the melting-pot by one of the city’s creditors; he pays down -three hundred pieces of gold for wine which the city fathers had -purchased and then found that they could not pay for; he contributes -directly or indirectly to the purchase of large quantities of corn for -the city; he remits to the amount of 6000 gold pieces (_i.e._ nearly -half his total benefaction) private debts owed to himself or his father. - -During the three years covered by these gifts Protogenes was financial -director of the city’s affairs, a position which he had reached after a -wide experience of public business (πλεῖστα δὲ χειρίσας τῶν κοινῶν, τρία -δὲ ἔτη συνεχῶς πάντα διῴκησεν ὀρθῶς καὶ δικαίως). - -To see in this financial direction of the city’s affairs an instance of -a commercial tyranny would be a pure hypothesis. It is not even certain -that Protogenes made all his gifts quite voluntarily. One of his -contributions for the purchase of corn was made after the demos had -passed a resolution that the wealthy ought to advance money for this -purpose[1447]. On one of the occasions when he paid for repairs to the -town walls he did so at the invitation of the people[1448]. “Advance” -and “invitation” may be euphemisms for “tax paying” and “compulsion,” -and the payments made by Protogenes may have had affinity to the -liturgies paid to the state by rich Athenians in the fifth century -rather than to the benevolences that Lucius Tarquinius is said to have -paid voluntarily for his own ends to the people of Rome. But this latter -hypothesis is not better founded than the other. “Advance” and “request” -may after all mean what they say. We do not know what became of -Protogenes after his three years as financial director. The financial -directorship may correspond to the magistracy that is said to have -frequently led directly to the tyranny, _e.g._ at Corinth and Miletus. -Protogenes is of course much later in date, but the Greek cities of -South Russia were the home of many curious survivals. At Olbia itself -for instance we find a style of pottery that in Greece proper was -typical of the fifth and fourth centuries persisting apparently into the -first[1449]. There are even hints that Olbia had once at least and -perhaps comparatively recently gone through a social and economic -revolution something like those that so often convulsed the cities of -the seventh and sixth centuries just before they fell under tyrants, -_e.g._ Athens before the tyranny of Peisistratus, or Miletus before that -of Histiaeus. While the city was being besieged by a certain Zopyrion -the Olbiopolitans had “set slaves free, given foreigners citizenship, -and cancelled all debts[1450].” If this Zopyrion is the governor left by -Alexander in Thrace[1451] this revolution must be dated at least a -century earlier than Protogenes. If, with Grote, we refuse to accept -this identification, the revolution is left dateless. In any case it -shows that such upheavals did happen in Olbia, and serves to remind us -how very incomplete is the material with which we are dealing. But the -value for our enquiry of the Protogenes enscription does not depend on -any speculations of this kind. What it does is to give us a detailed -picture of an exceptionally wealthy man in an ancient Greek city state -who for a considerable period largely financed his city. If Protogenes -could do this in Olbia there can be nothing inherently improbable in the -hypothesis that other great capitalists had done something similar in -other cities. If Protogenes did not turn his position into a political -tyranny, that would be no proof that others did not do so: and the fact -remains that the assumption that Protogenes was not on the way to become -a tyrant, or indeed that he did not actually become one, if not -precisely wild[1452] is purely hypothetical. - -The records of Protogenes illustrate the sort of way in which the -financial magnate might win the supreme place in his city. The whole -group of facts associated with his name and with those of Euboulos, -Hermias, Euaion, Timaeus, Philetairos, and Attalus shows once again that -at least there is nothing improbable in the theory that the power of the -seventh and sixth century tyrants was built up on a similar financial or -industrial basis, the more so considering the evidence adduced already -for believing that conditions in the earlier period were uniquely -favourable for the establishment of a money power. We have seen why the -financial despots of the age of Plato and Aristotle should not have -helped to preserve the memory of earlier money powers. It is no less -easy to see why the same should have been the case with the rulers of -Pergamum. An exceptional circumstance saved the house of Philetairos -from being reproached with its mercenary basis, and curiously enough -that circumstance was one which illustrates how very mercenary that -basis was. When Attalus III, the last of his house, died in 133 B.C., he -made the Roman people his heirs[1453]. His fortune was used by the -Gracchan revolutionaries to equip the impoverished Romans whom they were -restoring to the land by their agrarian laws. The dynasty too, with its -clear eye for the main chance, had always consistently sought the -friendship of Rome[1454]. Though most of our authorities for the history -of the Attalids are Greek, the Greeks in question were all pro-Roman, -with the result that we see the Attalids essentially from the Roman -point of view. They stood in much the same relationship to the Romans as -the house of Gyges did to the Greeks; and the Romans to whom Attalus III -had left all his treasure and possessions were as little inclined to -think harshly of their benefactor as were the Greeks whom Croesus had so -largely benefited inclined to be critical of his “hospitable -virtue[1455].” In both cases the man of business was known only as the -patron of deserving charities. We have to go to rulers like the Tarquins -and Peisistratids, whose history we owe ultimately to their own subjects -and employees, to hear the money-power described as it really was and -given its true name of tyranny. - - - - - Chapter XI. _Conclusion_ - - - ἀγαθὸν δὲ ὄντα διαφερόντως καὶ πλούσιον εἶναι διαφερόντως ἀδύνατον. - - PLATO, _Laws_, V. 743_a_. - - “We adopted a law that if you bought an office you didn’t get it. I - admit that that is contrary to all commercial principles, but I - think it is pretty good political doctrine.”—WOODROW WILSON. - -This final chapter will contain (_a_) a _résumé_ of the evidence already -adduced; (_b_) a short general discussion of the credibility of the -whole mass of extant evidence; and (_c_) an attempt to view in their -proper perspective the conclusions that the evidence seems to warrant. - - - (a) _Résumé of previous chapters_ - -[Sidenote: Introductory chapter.] - -The age of the first known metal coins is also the age of the first -rulers to be called tyrants. Ancient evidence and modern analogy both -suggest that the new form of government was based on the new form of -capital. The modern analogy is to be found in the financial revolution -which has largely replaced metal coins by paper (thereby rendering -capital very much more mobile, just as was done by the financial -revolution of the age of the tyrants) and has led many people to fear a -new tyranny of wealth. The ancient evidence is to be found in the scanty -extant writings of the sixth century B.C. (Solon and Theognis), in -scattered notices about early tyrants or tyranny in fifth century -writers (Thucydides, Herodotus, Pindar), in certain statements of -Aristotle, in references to industrial conditions both during and after -the age of the tyrants, in the history of the states where there was -never a tyranny, and in the steps taken to prevent a recurrence of -tyranny. - -If the commercial origin of the early tyranny is not explicitly -formulated by any ancient writer it should be remembered how meagre are -contemporary documents and how little Greek writers say about economic -causes. It is true also that my view is at variance with statements of -Plato, Aristotle, and subsequent writers: but their picture of the rise -of tyranny clashes with known facts about the seventh and sixth -centuries and is due to false generalizations from the conditions of -their own days and particularly from the career of Dionysius of -Syracuse. - -[Sidenote: Athens.] - -Peisistratus made himself tyrant by organizing the Attic “hill men” -(Diakrioi, Epakrioi) against the two previously existing rival factions -of the “plain” and the “coast.” The accepted explanations of these “hill -men” are improbable. They cannot have been farmers or shepherds, who -were always very conservative, are not recorded as having subsequently -supported Peisistratus, and must have lived principally in the plain and -very little in the forest-clad mountains where modern theories generally -locate them. Nor were the “hill men” confined to the mountainous -district of North Attica, the mistaken identification of which with the -“hill country” is due to mistaken views as to the triple division of -Attica into “hill,” “coast,” and “plain,” which wrongly assigns all -South Attica to the “coast” and limits the “coast” to South Attica. -These views on the triple division of Attica in the days of Peisistratus -are based on the weakest of evidence and are made improbable by the -subsequent topographical arrangements of Cleisthenes (502 B.C.), and by -the later uses of the terms Diakria and Epakria. The Epakria contained a -village named Semachidai which, as shown by a recently found -inscription, lay in the hilly mining district of South Attica. -Furthermore the Attic “akron” _par excellence_ was Cape Sunium, the -Southern apex of the Attic mining district and of the whole Attic -peninsula. In view of these facts it becomes probable that the Sunium -and Laurium mining district was the “hill country” _par excellence_. The -mines were almost certainly in full work at this period, and the miners, -unlike those of later ages, free men, good material for a political -faction. - -That Peisistratus based his power on silver mines is made very likely by -what is known of his subsequent career. He finally “rooted his power” on -money derived partly from home, partly from the Thracian mining -district; he went to the Thracian mining district to prepare for his -second restoration; his first restoration is attributed to the dressing -up as Athena of a Thracian woman named Phye, who is very possibly to be -explained away as the Athena who begins about this time to appear on -Attic coins: for this interpretation of the Phye story compare the names -“girl,” “virgin,” “Pallas” colloquially given to the Attic coins, and -the jest about Agesilaus being driven out of Asia by the Great King’s -archers, a colloquial name for Persian gold coins. - -The tyranny fell at Athens when the tyrants lost control of the Thracian -mining district. Shortly afterwards the ambitious Histiaeus, the Greek -friend of the Persian king into whose power the mines had passed, -incurred the suspicions of the Persian sovereign through attempting to -build up a political power on these very mines and miners. - -The history of the Alcmaeonid opposition to the house of Peisistratus -likewise suggests that the government of Athens at this period depended -first and foremost on the power of the purse. - -[Sidenote: Samos.] - -Polycrates is perhaps best known for his piracies, but it seems not -unlikely that these piracies were in fact an elaborate commercial -blockade of Persia that proved almost as unpopular among Greek neutrals -as among the subjects of the Great King against whom it was mainly -directed. As tyrant Polycrates is found controlling the commercial and -industrial activities of his state, building ships, harbour works, and -waterworks, and very possibly a great bazaar, and probably employing -much free labour on these works. Before he became tyrant he already had -an interest in the chief Samian industries, the working of metal and the -manufacture of woollen goods. Aiakes the father of Polycrates is -probably the Aiakes whom a recently discovered Samian inscription -appears to connect with the sea-borne trade of the island. The tyrant is -said to have owed his fall to an attempt to get money enough to rule all -Greece, a statement of particular value considering the tendency to -administer poetic justice that is so frequently displayed by Herodotus, -who is our authority for this statement. - -[Sidenote: Egypt.] - -The great developments of trade and industry that just preceded the age -of tyranny in Greece had their parallel if not their origin in Egypt. At -the height of this development in Egypt a new and powerful dynasty -arises which bases its power on commerce and on the commercial and -industrial classes. Already towards the end of the eighth century we -find King Bocchoris (somewhat after the manner of the Argive Pheidon) -devoting special attention to commercial legislation. His successor -Sethon is said by Herodotus to have based his power on “hucksters and -artizans and tradespeople.” During these reigns the country was always -being occupied or threatened by foreign invaders from Ethiopia or -Assyria. The first Egyptian king of this period to rule all Egypt in -normal conditions of peace and quietness was Psammetichus I, who rose to -power about the same time as Cypselus in Corinth and Orthagoras in -Sicyon. Psammetichus according to Diodorus converted his position from -that of a petty Delta chieftain (one of twelve who shared the rule of -the part of the country not in foreign occupation) into that of supreme -ruler of the whole country as a result of the wealth and influence that -he won by trading with Phoenicians and Greeks. - -This last statement if true establishes Psammetichus as a commercial -tyrant. It occurs only in Diodorus, and receives no direct confirmation -in earlier writers, but it is in entire harmony with all that is known -about events and conditions in Egypt at this period, and more -particularly with the notices just quoted as to Bocchoris and Sethon, -with the history of Amasis and the other later Saites as recorded in -Herodotus, and with the conclusions to be drawn from the excavation of -Naukratis and the other Greek settlements that played so important a -part in Saite Egypt. - -[Sidenote: Lydia.] - -From the middle of the eighth century B.C. till the early part of the -fifth Lydia appears to have been a power in which the ruler based his -position on wealth and struggles for the throne were fought with the -weapons of trade and finance. This according to the accounts is the case -with Spermos and Ardys in the eighth century and with Croesus in the -sixth: the story of Gyges and his magic ring may also be explained in -the same sense. A similar state of things is indicated in the advice -which Croesus is made by Herodotus to give to Cyrus, in the story of the -revolt of Pactyes, and in that of Xerxes and the rich Pythes. - -At about the time to which we can trace back this state of things in -Lydia, two events were taking place that are both attributed to Lydia, -namely the striking of the first metal coins and the appearance of the -first tyrant. In neither case are the dates very precise. The first -coins are more probably to be placed late in the eighth century than -early in the seventh, and though Gyges is stated to have been the first -tyrant, there are reasons for suspecting that he may have been merely -the first ruler of his kind to attract the attention of the Greeks. The -magic ring too by which he secured his tyranny is sometimes attributed -not to Gyges but to some (not very remote) ancestor of his or to the -eighth century plutocrat Midas king of the neighbouring Phrygia. But on -any showing the ring falls within the limits of time and place to which -may be ascribed the earliest coins and the earliest tyrant. Rings are -one common form of early currency and it is not impossible that it was -to the ring in this sense that the first tyrant owed his tyranny. This -view, which implies that the earliest coins were private issues and that -the coinage was only nationalized when the principal coiner became chief -of the state, is supported alike by evidence and analogies. - -[Sidenote: Argos.] - -Pheidon, who was probably the first ruler to be called tyrant in -European Greece, is described by Herodotus as “the man who created for -the Peloponnesians their measures,” a description that at once suggests -that it was this commercial step that differentiated Pheidon the tyrant -from the kings who preceded him. Later writers, of whom the earliest is -Ephorus, go further and state that silver was first coined by Pheidon in -Aegina. The statement has been called in question, but it is confirmed -by the chapters of Herodotus (V. 82 f.) which describe the early -relations between Argos, Aegina, and Athens. In the light of recent -archaeological enquiries it becomes highly probable that Argos became -predominant in Aegina as described in these chapters of Herodotus (which -are unfortunately most vague in their chronology) just about the time -when Pheidon most probably reigned; and this probability is increased by -the tradition that Pheidon recovered the lot of Temenos, the domain of -the kings of Argos in early Dorian times, which included the island of -Aegina. The occupation of Aegina by Argos which we have seen reason to -associate with Pheidon gave rise according to Herodotus to a change in -the “measures” (which probably included the weights system) in use on -the island, the new measures being half as great again as those -previously in use. The Aeginetan standard on which the Aeginetan coins -were struck is roughly half as great again as the other and probably -earlier standard used in ancient Greece. The statement of Ephorus that -silver was first coined by Pheidon in Aegina is thus strikingly -confirmed, which means that the first ruler to strike coins in European -Greece was also the first to be called tyrant. - -[Sidenote: Corinth.] - -The tyranny at Corinth coincides with the great industrial and -commercial developments of the city described by Thucydides (I. 13) in -words that are a paraphrase of his description of the state of things -that led to the rise of tyrannies in Greece generally. Scholars agree -that the tyrants had a direct interest in some of these developments, -notably shipping, colonizing and coinage. The main industry of Corinth -at this period seems to have been pottery, with which she supplied much -of the Greek world. Of the early career of the first tyrant, Cypselus, -very little is known beyond the story in Herodotus which professes to -explain how the infant Cypselus got his curious name. We have examined -in some detail the meaning of the words cypselus and cypsele, and found -that they probably mean potter and pot, so that the man who established -the tyranny at Corinth seems to have borne a name that associates him -with the main industry of his city. - -[Sidenote: Rome.] - -Both in date and in character the corresponding period at Rome to the -age of the tyrants in Greece is that which is occupied by the reigns of -the Tarquins. The first king of this dynasty, Tarquinius Priscus, is -said to have been the son of a rich Corinthian named Demaratus. Early in -life the first of the Tarquins had settled in Rome. It was by means of -his wealth that he secured the throne. Both he and his father are said -to have been great employers of labour, and the accounts imply that -their employees were free men. Servius Tullius, who succeeded Tarquinius -Priscus, is said to have been the first at Rome to strike coins, and to -have secured the support of the poor by gifts and benevolences. When the -last of the Tarquins, Tarquinius Superbus, overthrew Servius Tullius and -secured the throne, he did so by buying up the poorest of the common -people. After his succession he is described as employing Etruscans and -Roman citizens on a large scale as artizans and quarrymen. He loses the -throne when he can no longer pay these employees. - -During the first century of the republic the established government -several times thought itself threatened with attempts to restore the -kingship. In each case it is the wealth or the exceptional financial -position of the suspected person that causes the alarm. Early republican -statesmen are repeatedly reported as charging the Tarquins with having -degraded Roman citizens (from their natural position as soldiers and -gentlemen) into tradesmen and artizans, a charge which implies the -reverse change as having accompanied the change from kingly government -to republican. The final blow to the monarchist movement at Rome seems -to have been dealt when army pay was instituted, and the government as -paymaster of the army became the greatest employer of paid free labour -in the state. - -One later attempt to establish a tyranny at Rome has been suspected by -Mommsen. The man he suspects of it is Appius Claudius Caecus, the censor -of 312 B.C. Appius was noted for the number of his clients and the great -public works that he conducted, and he probably had a close connexion -with the first real coinage struck by Rome. Attention has also been -drawn to the accounts of the secessions, with their curious resemblances -to modern strikes and their implication of organization on the part of -labour. At Ardea in North Latium about the year 440 B.C. the -working-classes are described as playing a decisive part in the struggle -for supreme power. At Veii in the year 400 B.C. we are told of a rich -employer who became king of his city. - -The statements just quoted have all been often regarded with extreme -scepticism. The reasons for this scepticism have been examined in the -chapter on Rome. It is impossible to resume them here. If my conclusions -are not entirely wrong, the scepticism of the last century represented -an excessive reaction against the undue credulity of earlier ages. -Recent archaeological discoveries enormously increase the probability of -the narrative in its main outlines. But if after all the sceptics are -right on this particular question, and the Tarquin narrative is a -fiction, it is none the less of historical value, and confirms the view -that the early tyrannis was commercial, since, if fiction, it must be an -early Greek fiction, preserving an early Greek conception of the typical -early tyrant as a great capitalist. - -[Sidenote: Other early tyrannies.] - -In Chapter IX we surveyed the evidence for the origin of the early -tyrannies at Sicyon, Megara, Miletus, Ephesus, Leontini, Agrigentum, and -Cumae. The material is scanty and it is enough here to recall that as -far as it goes it supports the theory of a commercial origin. At Sicyon -the tyranny is founded by a tradesman the son of a tradesman. At Megara -Theagenes rises to power as the result of what looks very like the -creation of a corner in the staple product of his city. At Miletus and -Leontini we find tyrants arising as the result of something like class -war between rich and poor, while a later tyrant of Miletus tries to -establish a great political position by getting control of the mines and -miners of Thrace. At Ephesus and Cumae the tyrants’ power is said to be -based on the money that they distributed among the poorer classes, while -at Agrigentum the tyrant is definitely stated to have secured the -tyranny through his position as a great employer. - -[Sidenote: Capitalist despots of later ages.] - -In the times of Aristotle there are several cases in the Pergamene -district of rich bankers and the like making attempts, of which one at -least was successful, to secure supreme political power in their cities -by means of their wealth. The close personal relationship in which -Aristotle stood to some of them partly explains why they are not classed -by him as tyrants. - -Not long afterwards the far more important power of the rulers of -Pergamum owed its origin entirely to the enormous wealth of the founder -of the dynasty. - -Later still at Olbia chance has preserved an inscription which records -how a very rich Olbiopolitan named Protogenes became “financial -director” of his city. Though there is no evidence that Protogenes ever -became a tyrant the inscription shows that the sort of position which we -have imagined to have been normally built up by the would-be tyrant of -the seventh or sixth century was actually secured some three or four -centuries later by a wealthy individual in this remote and backward -Greek city on the Black Sea. - - - (b) _The credibility of the evidence as a whole_ - -The value of the various items of evidence collected and reviewed in the -preceding chapters varies very greatly. In some cases we have precise -statements bearing closely on the point in question and made by almost -contemporary writers. At the other end of the list we have anecdotes of -doubtful relevance and doubtful authenticity found in writers who lived -centuries after the period to which they refer. It is difficult to sum -up the value of so miscellaneous a collection. The estimate is bound to -vary greatly according to the temperament and training of the person who -makes it. There are however two points which seem in the present state -of scholarship to need especial emphasis. - -The first of these refers to the generally prevalent attitude towards -the question of historical truth as it affects generally the period -under consideration. No one who has read at all widely in modern -writings on ancient history can have failed to observe that the -scepticism or credulity of any given scholar has always depended largely -on that of his generation. Up to a point this is inevitable: but we are -reaching a stage when it is no longer necessary to follow quite so -blindly as has hitherto been done the natural reaction from excessive -credulity to excessive scepticism and _vice versa_. The pendulum has now -been swinging long enough for its motion to be observed and allowed for. -There is no doubt that scholars of a few generations ago were often and -perhaps in general unduly credulous. But it is no less certain that the -main tendency of the past century has been to react from excessive -credulity to no less excessive scepticism. The beginnings of the -sceptical reaction were observed by Byron: - - I’ve stood upon Achilles’ tomb - And heard Troy doubted: Time will doubt of Rome. - -The doubts about Troy have been triumphantly dispelled by the spade. So -likewise, as we have seen already, have many doubts as to the reality of -the Tarquins’ Rome. But the wonderful discoveries of the last forty -years at Troy, Mycenae, Knossos, Phaistos, and other sites of early -Cretan civilization have diverted the attention of scholars from later -periods. It need therefore cause no surprise if in the preceding pages -there has repeatedly been occasion to criticize prevailing views as -excessively and uncritically sceptical. - -The second point on the question of historical truth that I wish here to -emphasize is concerned more directly with the evidence collected in this -book. As already admitted, the collection contains many items of -doubtful value: it could not be otherwise if it was to be at all -complete. The cumulative effect of so much dubious evidence upon some -mental temperaments is to discredit the mass of evidence as a whole. It -is important therefore to bear in mind the character of our material. It -is a heap, not a chain. Its strength is to be measured by its strongest -items rather than by its weakest. Weak or irrelevant items do not -invalidate any that are relevant and cogent. On the contrary, points of -evidence that are individually unconvincing may have a powerful -cumulative effect if they are found all pointing, however dimly, in one -definite direction, and all suggesting a single explanation arrived at -on independent grounds. When dealing with the dawn of history it is -uncritical to reject a whole body of evidence merely because it is made -up of details scarcely any of which are capable of proof. The evidence -of history, or at any rate of Greek history, in its childhood is like -that of many an individual child. The child’s idea of truth is often -more fluid than that of the adult. It may be harder in any given case to -be sure of the exact facts. But it may all the same be certain that -facts more or less accurately recorded form a large element of the -information. - -That, it may be fairly claimed, is how the evidence that has been -presented in this volume ought to be regarded. Its cumulative value is -really considerable. It should be remembered how independent our -witnesses are. Livy on the Tarquins of Rome is corroborated by Diodorus -on Psammetichus of Egypt: Herodotus on early tyrants generally is borne -out by his critic Thucydides: the later writers who have been quoted so -frequently and in such numbers drew upon a great variety of sources: -literary evidence is confirmed by archaeological, as for instance when a -conjecture as to the “hill men” of Peisistratus that I put forward in -1906 is corroborated by an inscription that was first published just -after the publication of my conjecture. When witnesses are so many and -they speak on such a variety of topics and under such a variety of -circumstances and to all appearances without the possibility of any -common cue, the chances of collusion become remote in the extreme. - - - (c) _Conclusions_ - -But granted that the various items of evidence that we have so far -collected have all a real historical value, and granted too that they -lend one another a considerable amount of mutual support, there is a -further line of criticism that deserves a careful consideration. The -evidence may all be true and yet the inferences that have been drawn -from it be false, or at least ill-balanced and misleading. Kings and -tyrants have in all ages tended to be extremely rich. In most ages great -riches have been indispensable for anyone aiming at great political -power, and the greater the power aimed at naturally enough the greater -the riches required to secure it. Admittedly the tyrants lived in a -commercial age, and the influence of wealth was particularly strong. -Does the evidence that has just been presented prove in reality very -much more than that? Some of the statements about the men who became -tyrants are indeed sufficiently explicit, as for example that about the -trading of the young Psammetichus, or the wealth and workmen of the -young Lucius Tarquinius, but apart from the question of their -trustworthiness they are all so brief and meagre that it is impossible -to be sure that we see them in the right perspective. They are not very -adequate for forming any picture of the men they refer to or even of -their financial position. - -In short the early tyrants may have all been rich and all men of -business and yet their riches and business activities may have been -neither the basis nor the distinguishing feature of their rule. They -arose in a many-sided age, and there were many other developments that -might have conceivably brought them to the top. The doctrine of the -divine right of kings had lost its hold. The struggles between the kings -and the nobles had doubtless led both parties to appeal to the people, -and from that it might well be no far step to the people’s appointing -its own rulers. Then again there had been a revolution in the art of -war. The Homeric days were over when the heavy-armed chieftain was -everything and his followers a more or less useless rabble. In the new -kind of warfare large bodies of trained men-at-arms counted for -everything[1456]. Such a change might easily encourage a whole series of -military officers to seize the supreme power. Furthermore in the case at -any rate of the outlying Greek cities, and particularly those of Asia -Minor[1457], the constant danger from barbarian neighbours might readily -suggest the appointment of a military dictator. And we do in fact find -the early tyrants described as having been previously demagogues or -soldiers. - -But we find also that these descriptions go back only to Aristotle and -have their source in fifth and fourth century conditions. Even if they -went further back, the objection just raised against the commercial -explanation applies still more strongly here. Kings and rulers who -govern in fact as well as in name are generally something of public -speakers or soldiers. It is almost an impossibility to find a -self-raised ruler who cannot be described as either a demagogue or a -polemarch[1458]. - -Similarly with the notices about important offices of state alleged to -have been held by various tyrants before they attained to supreme power. -They are indeed among the most reliable items of information that we -possess about the early tyrants. But their significance can be easily -overrated. If ever a merchant who was aiming at the tyranny sought to -strengthen his political influence by obtaining office, the record of -his magistracy would be much more likely to be preserved than that of -his commercial successes. When we come to the detailed evidence as -presented in the previous pages the balance in favour of the commercial -theory may be claimed as decisive. - -If once the commercial origin of the tyrants’ power is admitted, the -various facts recorded about individual tyrants certainly gain in -meaning and coherence. The mercenaries, the monetary reforms and -innovations, the public works, the labour legislation, the colonial -policy and the commercial alliances with foreign states, which have been -repeatedly found associated with the early tyrants and which give the -preserved accounts of them such a distinct stamp, become far more -significant if it is granted that the tyrant’s power was based on his -control of the labour and trade of his city. As has been already -observed, the fact that a theory explains the connexions between an -obviously connected group of phenomena is no proof of its truth: but on -the other hand a theory which fails to explain satisfactorily such a -connexion is at an obvious disadvantage as compared with one which does. -That is one further reason why the typical tyrant is not to be explained -as a successful soldier or demagogue whose riches came to him suddenly -at the same moment as his throne. The adventurer of either of these -types might indeed further the commercial developments of the city that -he had seized. It would be of course to his interest to do so. But as a -general rule the man who has secured a fortune at a single stroke does -not care to improve it by years of patient and organized effort. If all -or any considerable number of the tyrants reviewed above had owed their -positions to their sword or their tongue, there would inevitably have -been some cases of commercial retrogression under the tyrannis, whereas -in fact there are none. - -This is a fundamental fact. The tyrants were one and all first-class -business men. If they did not deliberately use their wealth to secure -their position, there is only one other possible explanation of their -history: their financial abilities must have led their fellow-countrymen -to put them in the way of seizing the throne, and that is roughly the -account of them that is to be found in some modern histories, where they -are vaguely pictured as the more or less passive products of blind -economic forces. This view seems to me untenable. It cannot be -reconciled with the impression made by the early tyrants on writers like -Aristotle. More fatal still, we have a series of “lawgivers” like Solon, -who was a business man who gained his position precisely in the way just -indicated. Some of Solon’s friends reproached him with his folly in not -making himself tyrant. But the fact remains that no “lawgiver” of the -period did so[1459], and that the titles of νομοθέτης and αἰσυμνήτης -that were given these legally appointed dictators were never applied -either by friends or enemies to any of the tyrants at any period of -their careers[1460]. - -One fact has still to be explained. Different as are the views about -tyrants and tyranny expressed by different ancient writers at different -times they have this feature in common. All alike express their hatred -of tyrannical government. For Plato the man who becomes a tyrant “is -changed from a man into a wolf[1461].” When Herodotus digresses into a -debate on the merits of the chief forms of government, he makes the -critic of tyranny declare that there is nothing more unjust than it or -more bloodthirsty in the whole world[1462]. There is no judgment from -heaven on the man who lays low a tyrant. This doctrine of Theognis[1463] -is perpetually preached all through Greek history. Harmodius and -Aristogeiton the Athenian tyrannicides were celebrated in -sculpture[1464] and in song[1465] and their names were constantly on the -lips of orators[1466]. - -There are apparent exceptions to this attitude. The Aristotelian -_Constitution of Athens_, chapter XVI., records that “the tyranny of -Peisistratus was often praised as the life of the days of Kronos,” -_i.e._ as the Golden Age, and the pseudo-Platonic _Hipparchus_, 229_b_, -speaks of it in similar terms: (under the tyrants) “the Athenians lived -much as in the days when Kronos was king.” But the Aristotelian version -states also what it was that evoked this praise. “Peisistratus always -secured peace and maintained quiet. Therefore his tyranny was often -praised.” The phraseology of the two quotations shows that the praise -was given not to the form of government, but to the peaceful life that -it procured, a life that might be, and sometimes has been, associated -with the most oppressive of governments. - -The word tyrant appears to be Lydian, and to have been first applied -among the Greeks to the rulers who followed in the steps of the Lydian -Gyges, whom some ancient writers describe as the first tyrant[1467]. -Originally it was used in a colourless sense as a synonym for king or -monarch[1468]. It is still so used in the tragedians and frequently in -Herodotus[1469]. But wherever the tyrant is spoken of in -contradistinction to the king it is always in terms of detestation. - -It must have been something in the character of the early tyrants that -first gave the word the evil connotation, which it has preserved until -this day[1470]. What that something was is not easy to determine with -certainty. Much of it may be mere misrepresentation. Aristotle[1471] -makes a statement about the tyrants with whom he was acquainted that is -generally true of all monarchies. The tyrant, he says, “supports the -people and the masses against the nobles (γνωρίμους).” We must not -forget that the extant narratives represent almost exclusively the point -of view of the aristocracy. It has often been suggested that this fact -may account for the almost unanimous condemnation of the tyranny. But is -this explanation altogether adequate? The Greek tyrant and the Roman rex -are not the only monarchs who have had a bad press. The Emperors of Rome -and the kings of Israel and Judah suffered likewise. Yet Jewish priests -and Roman senators were not able to turn the titles of King and Emperor -and Caesar into a byword and reproach. There must have been some very -special circumstances to account for the universal execration of the -name of tyrant. Is it not perhaps to be found in the commercial -character of its origin? From the days of the Zeus-born king of Homer -and long before, back to the very beginnings of leadership among men, -legitimate kingship has always been held to rest upon the personal -capacity of the ruler. This is the basis of belief in hereditary -monarchy, or any other system that attaches great importance to birth -and upbringing. It is no less the basis of much republicanism which from -one point of view is merely a denial of the value of heredity and -specialized political education. Men have often been ready, and with -reason, to endure much from a ruler whose power is based on his -personality. But there is one basis of political power that mankind has -never tolerated, and that basis is mere riches. They have felt with -Plato that the plutocrat as such has no right at all to rule. “He seemed -to be one of the city rulers,” says Plato[1472], of the oligarch whose -power is based on his wealth, “but in reality he was neither its ruler -nor its servant, but merely a consumer of its stores.” Plato was here at -one with his countrymen[1473]. In the fifth century, as we know from the -history of the wealthy Nikias, riches did not exclude an Athenian from -the highest position in the state. But neither did they constitute a -claim to political power. In his famous funeral oration Pericles twice -claims that at Athens poverty is no bar to a political career. Pericles -is speaking of course for his own age. If the evidence collected in this -book has any value, the state of things during the first four -generations or so after the invention of a metal coinage was very -different. Money for a while became the measure of a man, and wealth by -itself brought political power. - -We must beware of expecting simplicity anywhere in history[1474]. Even -from the purely commercial point of view there were doubtless powerful -side-currents that have left no trace in our extant records. The power -of the Medici in Florence was based on their commercial supremacy. But -it did not rest entirely on their actual trading. In part it was based -on their position in the Papal treasury among the mercatores Romanam -curiam sequentes, and in part again on the struggle between Emperor and -Pope[1475]. Similar factors must have influenced the careers of Pheidon -and other early tyrants of Greece. In part again these early tyrants -seem to have stood for a racial movement. This was certainly the case at -Sicyon, where the tyranny marked the ascendancy of the pre-Dorian -population; probably also at Corinth, where the first tyrant’s father -belonged to the Aeolic pre-Dorian element of the population[1476]. This -racial factor is easily reconciled with the commercial, quite apart from -the possibility that the pre-Dorian element that comes to the top at -this period may have been closely related to the Levantine race that -plays so prominent a part in Aegean commerce of the present day. - -Nor must the personal element be left out of account, though so -lamentably little is known about it. Cypselus and Pheidon, Peisistratus -and Polycrates were certainly great personalities in their way. The -leaders in any movement are generally that. On the whole they seem to -have ruled well. Their government, except towards opponents and rivals, -was by no means oppressive. All the more surprising therefore is their -general condemnation. It is indeed scarcely possible to explain it -except on the view that they ruled by right not of their personalities -but of their riches. The prosperity that they brought to their cities -was altogether material. The famous works of Polycrates were altogether -the works of men’s hands. It is characteristic of the rule of a typical -early tyrant like Periander that he encouraged the worship of Dionysus -and Aphrodite at the expense of the cults of Poseidon and Apollo[1477]. -No doubt his object was partly to break down the monopoly of priestly -office and religious privilege that had hitherto been enjoyed by the -aristocracy[1478]: but it is significant that while the tyrants’ policy -meant a material advance in all directions, it meant also a -materialization even of religion. That is why with a clearness of -judgment that can be matched outside Greece only in Dante, the united -verdict of all the Greeks utterly condemned them. - -Two centuries after the expulsion of the tyrants from Athens, the city -again fell under a ruler who is said to have made its material welfare -his chief care, and “to have prided himself that there was much -profitable trade in the city and that all enjoyed in abundance the -necessaries of life.” Such according to Demochares, a nephew of -Demosthenes, was the boast of Demetrius of Phaleron, and for it he is -utterly condemned by Demochares as “taking pride in things that might be -a source of pride to a tax-collector or an artizan.” The condemnation is -quoted by Polybius as “no common charge[1479].” Polybius plainly regards -it as particularly damning, for he quotes it _à propos_ of certain -monstrous charges that were current about Demochares to prove that -Demetrius must have refrained from supporting them for lack of evidence -and not from lack of ill-will. Demochares and Polybius are a long step -from the early tyrants: but both in a sense belong to the period that -followed the tyrants’ fall. Their views about Demetrius and his -materialistic policy may well be an inheritance from an earlier age. - -The age of the tyrants lasted for little more than five generations, and -never so long as that in any one city[1480]. This fact may have some -consolation for those who fear a modern tyranny of wealth, and offers -perhaps an analogy for the observations of H. G. Wells on the transitory -character of the modern financial boss[1481]. The determination not to -be permanently governed by mere wealth is as strong to-day as it was -twenty-five centuries ago. “The loathing of capital with which our -labouring classes to-day are growing more and more infected” is -explained by William James[1482] as “largely composed of this sound -sentiment of antipathy for lives based on mere having.” He -contrasts[1483] the “military and aristocratic” ideal of the “well-born -man without possessions.” - -It is of course particularly hard to test the scorn of possessions of a -class that can always help itself to them at a crisis, and, as William -James himself admits, the ideal has always been “hideously -corrupted[1484].” Certainly at the present day the antipathies between -aristocracy and militarism and capitalism are, to say the least of it, -not particularly marked. It is the democracy that loathes capitalism. -But this may be merely a phase. The anti-capitalist movement may end by -labour becoming fatally materialised or fatally impoverished, and in any -country where that happens the way will be open for a new Peisistratus. - - - - -Appendix A (to p. 37). _The supposed Agricultural and Northern Diakria._ - - -[Sidenote: (A) The farming population took little part in politics,] - -The agricultural or pastoral explanation of the party that supported -Peisistratus has no inherent probability[1485]. Of course if it was -specifically stated on good authority that in his days people of either -of these two classes played the decisive part in politics, objections -would be silenced. But the ancient evidence points all the other way. -Aristotle repeatedly states that of all people farmers and herdsmen are -least prone to support revolutions[1486], and definitely pictures these -two classes as having played an entirely passive part both under the -regime of the early tyrants and during its establishment[1487]. When on -the throne Peisistratus gave financial help to impoverished -farmers[1488], a fact that is brought by Grundy[1489] into connexion -with his supposed agricultural Diakrioi. But in doing so Grundy -disregards some of the words that he himself quotes, which show that the -tyrant is dealing not with his supporters but with a body of men who -were not interested in politics but threatened to become so if driven -off the land. Geographically there is nothing to connect with the -Diakria the men whom Peisistratus thus relieved. In his earlier days the -most distressed and discontented part of the agricultural population -were the pelatai and hektemoroi[1490] who worked the lands of the -rich[1491] and therefore presumably lived in the Plain. - -According to the _Constitution of Athens_ the hill men were made up -largely of people not of pure race, whose claim to citizenship was more -than doubtful[1492]. Such a description is singularly inapplicable to -the people on the land in Attica, where in the fifth century they still -prided themselves on having an undisturbed autochthonous population. -Plutarch speaks of the hill men as a “mob of hirelings[1493].” In the -days just after Solon shepherds and small farmers of the hektemor class -may have been hirelings, but they can hardly have ever been a mob. - -There is therefore little to be said for the attempt to identify the -hill men with the shepherds and hypothetical farmers of Mount Parnes. We -cannot even be certain that the latter ever existed. - -The soil of Attica was notoriously poor, abounding in stony districts -(φελλεῖς) useful only for pasture[1494]. Attica claimed to be the land -not of corn but of the olive. Demeter had her seat not in the great -plain of Attica, but in the small and much more fertile plain of -Eleusis. - -[Sidenote: and lived but little on the mountains,] - -None of the champions of an agricultural hill party dwelling on Mount -Parnes seems to have seriously enquired into the upper limit of -cultivation with wheat on the mountains of Attica. The only ancient -writers who talk of agriculture being carried on there are the writer of -the Aristotelian _Constitution of Athens_ and Statius. - -The former[1495] tells the story of the man with the farm on Hymettus -(τὸν ἐν τῷ Ὑμηττῷ γεωργοῦντα). The story says nothing about the -frequency of farms on Hymettus or of the height up the hillside of this -particular farm. But it does say something about the soil and the crops. -The soil consisted of stones, the crops, so the farmer told -Peisistratus, were “troubles and sorrows.” This hardly suggests that in -the days of the tyranny Hymettus was of any great importance -agriculturally. The same conclusion is suggested by the story of the -clever Pelasgians who succeeded in cultivating the land at the foot of -Hymettus, much to the surprise of the Athenians[1496]. - -Statius[1497] speaks of the ploughmen of fragrant Hymettus (olentis -arator Hymetti), and the vineyards of Parnes (Parnesque benignus -uitibus). The former is almost a contradiction in terms. Fragrant is an -allusion to the famous honey of Hymettus, or to the thyme that produced -it[1498]. Thyme and honey do not go with cornfields. A “Parnes kindly to -vines” is not easily reconciled with Pausanias, who makes the mountain a -good hunting-place for bears and wild boars[1499]. Plato declares that -in his days some of the Attic mountains were barren except for their -yield of honey[1500], whereas once they had been covered with -forests[1501], some of which had only recently been cut down. The fame -of the honey of Hymettus went so far back, that the mountain was claimed -as the place where bees were first created[1502]. Aristotle divides bees -according to whether their haunts are cultivated (ἥμερα) or mountainous -(ὀρεινά). The latter are described in the next sentence as haunting the -forests (ὑλονόμοι)[1503]. - -[Sidenote: which were occupied by forests and wild beasts.] - -At the present day the Attic mountains are scarcely cultivated at -all[1504], and though in ancient Attica cultivation may have been more -intense, yet apart from the difficulties of carrying it up the mountain -side, the whole scheme of life presupposes vast supplies of timber for -shipbuilding, fuel, and countless other purposes. Bursian is probably -right when he says that in antiquity Parnes was “thickly covered with -forest in which numerous beasts found shelter, including wild boars and -bears[1505].” During the period of Athens’ greatness, between 550 and -350 B.C., the supply of timber must have been constantly diminishing. -Yet towards the end of the fifth century the charcoal-burners had their -centre at Acharnae, below the southern slopes of Parnes, only about -seven or eight miles from Athens. Thucydides excludes Acharnae from the -plain[1506], and we must infer that it was not then the land of corn and -vines that it is now. If not forest it was waste. If the land round -Acharnae had not been claimed for farming, it is hardly likely that -farmers abounded higher up[1507]. - -The same inference is suggested by a passage of Xenophon which implies -that corn could not be grown in the mining district, which is distinctly -hilly but does not reach anything like the height of Pentelicon, -Hymettus, or Parnes, “and there is also land which when sown does not -bear fruit, but being mined supports a population many times larger than -it would if it was producing corn: and its argentiferous character is -plainly due to Providence,” etc.[1508]. - -Then again frequent mention is made in ancient Attic documents of -“boundary estates” and these are explained by the scholiast to Aeschines -as “lands on the border of the country, extending either to the -mountains or the sea[1509].” Such a definition implies that the -mountains were almost as unused to cultivation as the sea itself. In -Italy too the limit of cultivation of wheat seems to have been low. -Latin writers repeatedly contrast the forest-clad mountains with the -arable lowlands, and in some cases the mountains that these writers have -in mind are considerably lower than the heights of Parnes[1510]. - -[Sidenote: (B) The case for a North-east “Hill Country” rests on - misreadings or misinterpretations of ancient authorities.] - -Enough has been said to show how little reason there is for picturing -the mountains of North and East Attica in the days of Peisistratus as -the home of a large and active agricultural population. It remains for -us to examine the evidence for thinking that this district was known as -the “Hill Country.” We shall find that if possible it is flimsier still. -The supporters of the prevailing view base their case mainly on the -definition of the Diakria found in the printed editions of Hesychius. -This definition is the main source of all existing misconceptions. It is -necessary therefore to examine it. The words of Hesychius as generally -quoted are these. “Diakrieis: not only certain of the Euboeans but also -of the Athenians: also a place (τόπος) in Attica: the Diakria is the -land from Parnes to Brauron.” The modern name for the hills at Brauron -is Περάτι (End), which seems at first sight to harmonize well with the -definition of the Diakria just quoted. But if we examine any good map of -Attica, we see that Περάτι does not end the Southern extension of -Parnes; it forms the North-east extremity of the hills of South Attica. -That is a first difficulty. It is at least unusual to define the limits -of a district by places beyond those limits. We do not say that Germany -extends from Tilsit to Verviers. - -The second objection is far more serious. It is that the MSS. say -nothing of Brauron. The word they give is Balylon (εἰς Βαλυλωνος, -_sic_). This was emended by Aldus to Babylon. Brauron is a conjecture of -Palmerius, and by no means a certain one. In Byzantine times the -familiar Babylon (pronounced Vavylon) would indeed be a very natural -corruption for the then obscure Brauron (pronounced Vrafron). The MS. -Balylon is not nearly so likely to be a phonetic corruption of Brauron. -It might conceivably be an orthographic corruption of Aulon, a place or -region in the mining district in the extreme South of Attica[1511]. The -εἰς with the genitive of the MS. suggests however some more complete -corruption[1512]. - -But even if the reading “to Brauron (εἰς Βραυρῶνα)” were certain, -Hesychius would still be a doubtful authority on this point. His -definition of the “Coast” runs thus: “the Coast: Attica, whence also the -ship Paralos (ἡ παραλία· ἡ Ἀττική, ἔνθεν καὶ ἡ ναῦς πάραλος).” This -presumably means that the Coast was a synonym for Attica, the coastland -_par excellence_. Such a definition might be supported by philological -connexions between Ἀττική and ἀκτή[1513]. Conceivably with ἡ Ἀττική we -should understand not γῆ but παραλία: the Coast means _par excellence_ -the Attic coast (compare the modern “Riviera”). This interpretation is -supported by our author’s definition of the men of the coast (οἱ -παράλιοι), which runs “those who occupy the coast of Attica.” Neither -interpretation vindicates Hesychius as an authority on the triple -division of Attica. He makes no mention of the Plain. - -Modern writers, it is true, give the word “coast” (παραλία) a -conventional meaning and confine it to the Southern apex of the Attic -triangle, the district of Attica that has the largest proportion of -coast to interior[1514]. Their view has one fact in its favour. After -the expulsion of the tyrants, when Cleisthenes set himself to break up -the old local political parties, the whole of this Southern apex was -included among the “coast” trittyes or (th)ridings of his new triple -division of the whole country. But there are indications that the -inclusion of this whole district in the coast was never anything but an -artificial arrangement[1515] to prevent either of the other two -divisions from overbalancing the coast[1516]. The Cleisthenic coast was -of course not confined to this Southern apex. The moderns who imagine -this restricted use base their assumption on a misunderstanding of their -authorities. They quote Thucydides II. 55, where in reference to a -Peloponnesian raid on Southern Attica he speaks of “the so-called coast -land.” But the precise words of Thucydides show that the ravages were -confined to the coast[1517], while inscriptions and passages in other -writers prove that the name “coast” was not confined to the Southern -apex of Attica but was normally applied to the whole Attic -seaboard[1518]. When Thucydides uses the expression “what is called the -coast land” he need not be taken as meaning that the name “coast” in -Attica was used as a synonym for what Herodotus calls the Sunium -Heights[1519]. Very possibly he is commenting rather on the fact that -the Attic coast was called by the poetical name πάραλος γῆ, παραλία (the -land of the brine) instead of the good fifth century prose word -παραθαλάσσιος, ἐπιθαλάσσιος (the land by the sea). He himself uses -ἐπιθαλάσσιος in the very next chapter for the coast land of the -Peloponnese[1520]. - -Another text which has been thought[1521] to establish a Northern or -North-Eastern Diakria and a Southern Paralia is a fragment of -Sophocles[1522] in which the mythical king Pandion divides Attica -between his three sons. Two scholia of Aristophanes[1523] and a notice -in Suidas[1524] equate the North-Eastern of these divisions with the -Diakria. But against this equation must be set that of Stephanus -Byzantinus[1525], who says that the Diakria fell to the son who received -according to Sophocles the Southern division. - - - - - Appendix B (to p. 168). _The Date of the Argive-Aeginetan Embargo on - Attic Pottery_ - - -[Illustration: Fig. 43. Dipylon vase.] - -The outstanding facts in the history of Attic pottery are these. During -the dark ages Attic pottery takes perhaps the foremost place in the -whole of Greece Proper. The dominant ware of this period is of a well -defined style generally known as Geometric, of which the Attic “Dipylon” -ware (fig. 43) is a superior and well represented variety[1526], that -appears to have been in considerable request beyond the borders of -Attica[1527]. The period of eclipse for Attic pottery is the seventh -century and the beginning of the sixth. During this period oriental -influences made themselves felt in all Greek arts and crafts. In Greece -Proper the dominant pottery of the period is the Corinthian (figs. 22, -34), and another ware that began somewhat earlier but largely overlapped -it, generally known as Proto-Corinthian (fig. 44). These two fabrics -flooded most of Greece as well as Sicily and Italy, and are found in -abundance in many Greek cities of the East. But in Attica Dipylon ware -seems to have held the market well into the seventh century[1528], and -to have been followed by the vases known as Proto-Attic and -Phaleron[1529], which occupy only a humble place in the ceramic history -of the period[1530]. Then in the first half of the sixth century Attica -developed its famous Black Figure style (fig. 41), that quickly drove -all competitors out of the market. - -[Illustration: Fig. 44. Proto-Corinthian vase.] - -From the commercial point of view an embargo on Attic pottery between -about 670 and 570 B.C. would have been practically pointless. It is only -before the earlier date and after the later that Attic pottery was a -menace to its rivals. As between these dates all that is known of the -history of pottery in the Argolid and Aegina inclines strongly in favour -of the earlier period. The most ardent protectionist will admit that -protection is useless without something to protect, and from 570 B.C. -onwards neither Argos nor Aegina appears to have had any interest in any -possible rival to Attic ware. But in the early part of the seventh -century Argos and Aegina alike were flooded with both Corinthian[1531] -and Proto-Corinthian[1532] pottery, and, as may be gathered from the -traditions about the lot of Temenos[1533], it is highly probable that -they were much interested in pushing these wares, which are found in -large quantities not only in Greece Proper, but also in Italy, Asia -Minor, and even further afield[1534]. Corinthian pottery is -unquestionably a Corinthian product[1535]. The place of origin of -Proto-Corinthian is, as has been already noticed, much disputed. It has -been claimed for Aegina itself[1536], and for Argos[1537]. Corinth is a -possibility[1538], as also is Chalcis, for which latter the abundant -finds at Cumae are interesting but by no means decisive evidence[1539]. -Most archaeologists prefer Sicyon[1540]. - -The balance of expert opinion at present is certainly in favour of the -North-east Peloponnesus[1541]. In Chapter VI evidence is cited to show -that the whole of this region was probably under Argive domination -previous to the establishment of tyrannies at Corinth and Sicyon about -the year 660 B.C. But after that the situation changes. Corinth and -Sicyon become strong cities, friendly to one another and hostile to -Argos[1542]. Corinthian pottery eclipses all its rivals, with -Proto-Corinthian as an easy but lagging second. If Argos had wanted -protection for her native pottery in the second half of the seventh -century, she would have excluded not Attic pottery, but the wares of -Corinth, and perhaps Sicyon[1543]. Attic pottery revived and began to -dominate the Greek market about 570 B.C., and that is the date to which -the embargo is assigned by Hoppin, who published the pottery from the -Argive Heraeum. But if that was the date, then, as he himself declares, -its motive cart have been “nothing but simple spite, since no increased -activity on the part of the Argive potters is the result[1544].” The -motive that Hoppin so rightly desiderated can best have been at work -when Proto-Corinthian and Corinthian pottery was already on the market, -but Corinth and Sicyon were not yet under tyrants. - -Thus on _à priori_ grounds the early years of the seventh century form -far the most likely period for an Aeginetan or Argive embargo on the -pottery of Attica[1545]. The power that destroyed the Dipylon -ships[1546] might well have struck a blow at Dipylon pottery, if only to -improve its own position in the carrying trade. - -It remains to test this general probability by the evidence of the sites -more immediately concerned. - -In Aegina Attica Black Figure pottery has been found in some -abundance[1547]. In fact Attic pottery found a ready entrance from the -latter half of the seventh century onwards[1548]. If there is any stage -of Attic pottery that is poorly represented on the island, it is the -Proto-Attic and Phaleron. Such at any rate is the evidence of the -excavations at the temple of Aphaia; and the scarcity of early -orientalizing Attic harmonizes with what is known of the Geometric -pottery from the site. This latter style, so Thiersch reports[1549], is -richly represented, and in two groups, which are plainly imports from -the neighbouring regions of Attica and the Argolid. The Attic ware -predominates at first, the finds at Eleusis and the Athenian Kerameikos -offering the closest analogies. Towards the end of the Geometric style, -when it begins to connect up with Proto-Corinthian, the second great -group of imports begins, with types that are also found in great numbers -in the Argolid, at Tiryns and the Argive Heraeum. - -Again, in the Aeginetan temple of Aphrodite, where the pottery found by -Stais has been published by Pallat[1550], Geometric sherds, in clay and -technique not to be distinguished from Attic, were fairly numerous, but -coming down from the eighth century to the seventh, we are told that the -Attic pottery of the period, the so-called Proto-Attic, is represented -only by a few types, some of which are perhaps only imitations of the -genuine Attic. - -Similarly, the excavators of the Argive Heraeum report that “in the -Argolid we find the Geometric style ceasing almost abruptly, while the -Argive style becomes as it were emancipated[1551].” Argive is the -Americans’ name for Proto-Corinthian[1552]. - -The vast majority of the fragments of this period from the Aphrodite -temple are Proto-Corinthian or early Corinthian[1553]. Attic pottery -reappears among the finds of about the middle of the sixth century, with -a few sherds of Kleinmeister kylikes. Pallat indeed[1554] speaks further -on of the Proto-Attic (_i.e._ early seventh century Attic) that is -richly represented at Aegina, and Loeschcke too speaks of all stages of -Attic ware from Dipylon onwards occurring in the island[1555]. -Unfortunately, such terms as rare and abundant are still used by -archaeologists in the loosest and most misleading way. The only vases -Loeschcke quotes are a “Tyrrhenian” amphora, and an Ergotimos cup, -_i.e._ two early sixth century vases, both from the Fontana collection, -and attributed to Aegina only on the authority of dealers or collectors -of the early part of the nineteenth century[1556]. The fact remains that -in the properly recorded excavations on the island, it is early in the -seventh century that Attic pottery occupies its least prominent -position, and that in the museum at Aegina[1557], which includes the -Aphaia finds and specimen pieces from the 1904 excavations at the -Aphrodite temple, there is plenty of Mycenaean, Geometric, -Proto-Corinthian, and Corinthian pottery, some early Black Figure (about -550 B.C.), and a fair number of late Black Figure vases, but no -Proto-Attic at all. - -For Argos the evidence is limited mainly to the finds from the Heraeum, -the temple some miles from the city, that was excavated by the -Americans. As mentioned already, the evidence from this site has been -used for dating the embargo in the second half of the sixth -century[1558]. Unfortunately, the American report is mistaken in the -dating of some of its finds. It ascribes to the first half of the sixth -century the archaizing Attic potter Nikosthenes, who flourished in the -second half[1559]. The only two types of Attic fragments that the report -states to have been found in considerable numbers[1560] both belong to -the latter part of the century, and not, as the report states, to the -first half of it. The finds therefore can hardly be quoted as indicating -an exclusion of Attic pottery that started in the middle of the sixth -century. They include only a very few fragments of early seventh century -Attic[1561]. - -The indignant Argives and Aeginetans who, at the date that we are trying -to determine, had crushed the Athenians in Aegina, did not merely -exclude Attic pottery from the temple or temples of their outraged -deities. They insisted further on the exclusive use of local pottery. It -is highly probable that a whole mass of this local pottery, used for -this very purpose, has actually come down to us. In the recent -excavations of the Heraeum at Tiryns, the vast majority of the dedicated -vases are miniature vessels of local fabric. The number reaches nearly a -thousand, forming a series that begins in the seventh century and runs -right through the sixth century into the fifth[1562]. Miniature vases -similar in style, and presumably of about the same date, were found in -like abundance in the Argive Heraeum[1563], where they were dated by the -Americans many centuries too early. They form the most characteristic -series of vase dedications in the temple. It has been suggested with -much plausibility by Frickenhaus in the Tiryns publication[1564], that -it was just such a mass of similar votive vases that was seen by -Herodotus in the temple of Damia and Auxesia in Aegina. If Frickenhaus -is right, the exclusion of Attic pottery from certain temples in Aegina -and the Argolid is naturally put back at least into the seventh century. -Frickenhaus refuses to believe that the use of these “native pots” was -due to the reason given by Herodotus. But does the association of these -harmless little local vases with an anti-Attic policy really look like -an aetiological invention? - -In the Aphaia temple on Aegina a quantity of local hand-made ware was -found in the form of pots, jugs, plates, hydriae, amphorae, etc., large -enough for use. Furtwaengler refers to them as χύτραι[1565], another -form of the word used by Herodotus of the native pots dedicated to Damia -and Auxesia. Similar plain ware for practical use is found on many -sites[1566], and is not likely to have attracted the notice of -Herodotus, though on the other hand the word that he uses (pots, -χυτρίδες) points to plain coarse ware[1567]. If this is the ware he -noticed, our dating is not however affected, since the principal shapes -find their nearest parallels in Geometric graves. - - - - - Appendix C (to p. 169). _Early Athenian Sea Power_ - - -The earliest naval battle known to Thucydides was fought between the -Corinthians and the Corcyraeans in 664 B.C.[1568]. The Dipylon ships are -built with rams (fig. 45. _a_), which by itself sufficiently shows their -warlike character[1569]. Some of them are depicted fighting, or with -fallen sailors lying all around (fig. 45. _c_)[1570], a fact which led -Kroker[1571] to date them after 664 B.C. If Kroker’s argument was sound, -they would have to be dated later still, for it is highly unlikely that -Athenian vases would depict for the local market a battle in which -Athenians were not concerned[1572]. But even 664 B.C. seems too late a -date for the vases. Seventh century Greek pottery everywhere shows -Oriental influence. This is the case with typical seventh century Attic, -which is known as Proto-Attic and Phaleron ware. Dipylon pottery may -have lasted on into this century, but it belongs mainly to the eighth -and ninth[1573]. A Geometric cup with a naval fight found at -Eleusis[1574] occurred in the lowest stratum of the Geometric graves and -is dated by Poulsen fairly early in the style[1575]. - -[Illustration: Fig. 45. Dipylon ships.] - -[Illustration: Fig. 46. Vase painting signed by Aristonothos.] - -There is however no necessary discrepancy with Thucydides. Helbig[1576] -points out that all Dipylon fights seem to be duels between single pairs -of ships. Most of these Dipylon warships are depicted on huge vases that -took the place of tombstones, so that the single ship, or ship-duel, -might be explained by the single sea-captain who lay beneath[1577]. But -against this explanation must be set the single ships and single ship -fights on smaller Dipylon vases and the naval duel on the vase signed by -Aristonothos, probably an Argive potter of the first half of the seventh -century (fig. 46)[1578]. One late Dipylon fragment (fig. 45. _d_)[1579] -shows a ship’s crew fighting warriors on land, and the vessel’s prow, in -which Helbig sees the form of a horse’s head, is thought by him to -indicate that it came from Caria or Phoenicia, where this kind of prow -ornament is known to have been used[1580]. The horse’s head is not very -distinct. Its identification is regarded as uncertain by -Furtwaengler[1581]. At the best it is not decisive for Helbig’s -inference. But he is probably right, when he sees in the Athenian ships -of the Dipylon period a naval force intended to protect Attica against -pirates[1582], which may never have fought a pitched battle at -all[1583]. - -Some such state of things as Helbig outlined is required to explain the -behaviour of the naval forces of the combatants in the early Aeginetan -war. The war is described as occurring just after the Aeginetans had -built ships and become masters of the sea[1584]. The fleet may have been -the outcome of the shipbuilding recorded in the Hesiodic Eoiai, where it -is said of the Aeginetans that they “were the first to fashion ships -with oars on either side, and first to set up sails, the wings of the -ship that crosses the sea[1585].” The thalassocracy must have been -local[1586], and may well mean simply that Aegina had outstripped -Athens, and become the leading member of the Kalaurian league, though -possibly it is to be associated with the early Aeginetan settlement at -Naukratis[1587]. The Athenians claimed to have sent only a single ship -to Aegina. But this appears to have been the version of the official -bulletin, with the incapacity apparently inherent in such documents for -describing a serious reverse as such. “The Aeginetans said that the -Athenians had come not with one ship but with many[1588].” - -That Athens too possessed a fleet is implied when Herodotus says that -the Argives crossed to Aegina undetected[1589]. Yet there is no hint of -a sea battle. Both sides have their explanation[1590], but neither is -very satisfactory. The state of things implied by Herodotus’ narrative -of the Aeginetan war is remarkably like that pictured by Helbig for the -time of the naval activities of the Dipylon ships. - -One further point on this naval question may be noted, though it must -not be pressed. Triremes are mentioned in connexion with the crossing of -the Athenians to Aegina. This may be a mere anachronism[1591]. But there -is nothing to prove that it is so. A state of things which includes -fleets of triremes, but no naval actions on a large scale, suits -admirably the early part of the seventh century, before the naval battle -of 664 B.C. and after the invention of the trireme. The first triremes -in Greece are said to have been built at Corinth, some time before 704 -B.C., when Ameinokles constructed four for the Samians[1592]. Some of -the Dipylon ships appear already to possess two banks of oars (fig. -45_b_)[1593]. Ships with two banks of oars appear on monuments of -Sennacherib (700 B.C.)[1594]. - -Triremes were used by the Pharaoh Necho (610–594 B.C.)[1595]. Both -Sennacherib and Necho probably relied largely on Phoenician sailors and -shipwrights. “We are told that the Sidonians were the first to construct -a trireme[1596].” All these statements fall in excellently with the -notice of Thucydides. It is true that in the next chapter he says that -Aegina and Athens possessed few triremes a little before the death of -Darius (486 B.C.), and uses this fact to argue that Greek naval power -only developed on a large scale from about that time. His facts are -hardly to be questioned; but in his conclusions he appears to be misled -by the fallacy (which he shares with so many moderns) that no -development of first class importance could possibly be dated much -earlier than his own age[1597]. - -The troubles that overtook Aegina about the time of her break with -Epidaurus probably included a war with Samos[1598], in which the Samians -“sent an expedition against Aegina, and did much harm to the Aeginetans, -and received much from them[1599].” In such a state of affairs Aegina -would be doing her utmost to turn out ships on the up-to-date pattern -with which Ameinokles was supplying the enemy. - -The Dipylon ships are rightly associated by many modern scholars with -the naukraric organization that is found existing at Athens at the end -of the dark ages[1600]. The presidents of the naukraroi (or perhaps of -the naukraries) are said by Herodotus to have been administering -(ἔνεμον) Athens at the time of Cylon’s attempted tyranny, _i.e._ about -632 B.C.[1601]. The statement is challenged by Thucydides, who says -that “at that time the nine archons conducted most of the business of -the state[1602].” Herodotus however is at the worst only being -inaccurate. The naukraroi were very possibly “the authorities in -charge of the siege (οἱ ἐπιτετραμμένοι τὴν φυλακήν)” of Thucydides and -were probably responsible for the levy _en masse_, recorded by -Thucydides himself (ἐβοήθησαν πανδήμει ἐκ τῶν ἀγρῶν), that led to -Cylon’s discomfiture[1603]. Herodotus may have exaggerated the -authority of the naukraroi to palliate the guilt of the Alcmaeonid -archon who put Cylon’s followers to death[1604]. - -Attica in the days of Cylon was divided into forty-eight of these -naukraries, each of which had to provide a ship[1605]. The business of -the naukraroi was however largely financial[1606], so much so that later -writers, who may have known them best from references to them in the -laws of Solon, seem to have regarded them as exchequer officials[1607], -the more so as Cleisthenes replaced the naukraric organization by -demes[1608], which had no naval associations. - -Even the etymological connexion of naukrary with ναῦς (navis, ship) has -been called in question. Doubt is first cast on it by Pollux, who wrote -his _Onomasticon_ in the second century A.D.[1609]. Modern writers have -proposed alternative derivations. Grote derives it from ναίω (I dwell), -and explains the naukraroi as the principal householders[1610], a reflex -of the suffrage basis of the nineteenth century. Others[1611] connect it -with an obscure word ναύω, said by Hesychius and Photius to mean “I -beseech,” and connected by Photius with ναός (temple). ναός and ναύω -they connect with a dubious gloss of Pollux[1612], which explains -ναύκληρος (ship’s captain) by the rare word ἑστιοπάμων (householder, -lit. hearthholder), and which they emend by reading ναύκραρος for -ναύκληρος. As further Hesychius defines ναύκληρος (_sic_) as the -president of a community (συνοικία) they connect the origin of the -naukraries with the unification (συνοικισμός) of Attica by Theseus, -symbolized by a common hearth[1613]. - -These philological doubts have been met by G. Meyer[1614], who argues -that even assuming that ναός means “hearth,” compounds would require not -ναυ- but ναο- or ναυο-. Phonetic analogies all point to a derivation -from ναῦς (ship)[1615]. -κραρος is to be connected with κραίνω (make, -complete) or perhaps with κραίνω meaning “I rule[1616].” - -Pollux’s uncertainty about the derivation simply reflects the -uncertainty about the history of the naukraries that was prevalent in -his days. No naval activities of the naukraroi are recorded by any -ancient writer[1617]. But this proves nothing. Naukraries probably had a -long history at Athens, like ship-money in England, and in the course of -time lost their dominatingly naval character. - -Gilbert indeed[1618] doubted the existence of naukraries before the time -of Solon, who is suggested as a possible founder by a Scholiast of -Aristophanes[1619]. He suspects the evidence of the pro-Alcmaeonid -Herodotus, and notes that he describes the attempt of Cylon and its -suppression by the naukraroi as having happened “before the time” not of -Solon but “of Peisistratus.” He argues also against the possibility of a -pre-Solonian Attic fleet of forty-eight ships, since Solon, when he -attacked Salamis, sailed against the island with nothing but a large -number of fishing-boats and one thirty-oared vessel[1620]. He quotes -Photius, who s.v. ναυκραρία says, “Solon having thus called them, as -Aristotle states.” His views are not tenable. Even if Herodotus is -trying to whitewash the Alcmaeonidae, it by no means follows that he is -very far from the truth in his account of the naukraries. If he mentions -Peisistratus and not Solon, it is simply because Cylon aimed at becoming -not a lawgiver but a tyrant. A weak Athenian fleet in Solon’s time is no -proof that the Athenian fleet had never been stronger. When Photius says -“thus called” (ὀνομάσαντος), he may quite as well mean “used this name -for” as “gave this name to”: if he intended it for the latter, all that -follows is that he misunderstood Aristotle, as did also the Scholiast to -Aristophanes, _Clouds_, 37. - -De Sanctis has gone even further than Gilbert, and brings down the -establishment of the naukraries, along with the attempt of Cylon, to the -time of Peisistratus[1621]. He argues mainly from the naval developments -under the tyrant, which, as seen already, are no evidence whatever -against a much earlier date. - -There is no reason to doubt the existence of the naukraries in 632 B.C. -The question to be settled is how much further they go back, and what -was the naval need that they were organized to meet. - -A date not much before Cylon is argued for by Schoemann[1622], who can -find no earlier occasion for their institution than the seventh century -struggle with Megara, by Duncker[1623], who similarly explains them as -instituted out of rivalry to the seventh century navies of Athens’ -neighbours, by Philippi[1624] who dates them 683 B.C. (institution of -annual archons), and by Busolt[1625], on account of their connexion with -the financial classification and organization of the seventh century. As -regards Schoemann and Duncker it has been shown above in Chapter VI how -very unlikely it is that Athens started an elaborate naval organization -in the seventh century. Busolt’s connexion of the naukraries with -seventh century financial organization shows only that they then -existed: it does not follow that they were then created. Whether or no -Glotz is right in tracing them back to Homeric times[1626], the balance -of probabilities indicates that they go back to the period of the -Dipylon pottery[1627], and were organized for protection or reprisals -against the raiders that then infested the Attic coasts, much as in -England the Danegeld was instituted to deal with the pirates of a -corresponding period in our own history. There may be something in the -view that equates the naukraric organization with the council of -Theseus[1628], if by Theseus is meant the head of the Athenian state who -established some sort of order on the waters and coasts of the Saronic -Gulf after the overthrow of the Cretan civilization[1629]. To quote the -words of two particularly sober writers[1630]: - - After the breakdown of the Minoan thalassocracy Athens certainly - took her part in policing the Saronic Gulf.... Her men of war are - frequently depicted on Dipylon vases of the ninth and eighth - centuries. In later times need of this protecting squadron may have - grown less, when the navies of Megara, Aegina, Chalcis, and Eretria - cleared the Aegean of corsairs. We may suppose that the naukraroi of - the seventh century seldom saw active naval service[1631]. - -The writers just quoted, following Helbig, imagine the ancient -naukraries pursuing their naval activities as members of the Kalaurian -league, and the latter, which lasted on as a religious body through -classical times, as gradually taking a back place with the development -of the other naval states they mention. Their picture however leaves out -of account the chief fact known about the history of the league. Its -original members were Hermione, Epidaurus, Aegina, Athens, Prasiae, -Nauplia, and the Minyan Orchomenos. Then at the end of the list Strabo -adds, “Nauplia used to be represented by Argos, and Prasiae by -Sparta[1632].” Strabo is here referring to a later period. It looks as -though Argos and Sparta were intruders into the league, who sought -membership to secure influence or a recognized position in the Saronic -Gulf, just as in later times Philip of Macedon, for political reasons, -set such store on recognition by the Delphic Amphictyony[1633]. Is it -unreasonable to suppose that the two intruders secured their places in -the league each at the time of his aspirations to Peloponnesian -hegemony, Sparta in the sixth century, and Argos under Pheidon? All the -known circumstances bear out this supposition, at least for Argos which -alone at present concerns us. It fits alike the naval power of Athens in -the dark ages, the eclipse of that power in the seventh century, and the -expansion of Argos just at this period. Nauplia is said by -Pausanias[1634] to have fallen to Argos only at the end of the seventh -century. But Asine, which lies further from Argos, is said to have been -conquered by her a hundred years earlier[1635]. Beloch argues with some -reason that the nearer city must have been conquered first. But there is -no need to follow him in his passion for lowering dates, and bring down -the time of the conquest of Asine. There is more reason for putting back -the date of the fall of Nauplia, and thus bringing it into the period of -Argive expansion under Pheidon[1636]. - -Make this not unlikely modification in the picture just quoted from -Mitchell and Caspari, and the early war between Athens and Aegina finds -a satisfactory historical setting. Before the war Athens, Epidaurus, and -Aegina are the leading states in the Saronic Gulf. As a result of it -Athens is crippled at sea, and her place, and even more than her place, -is taken by Argos. The evidence is admittedly scanty, but as far as it -goes it points to the first Aeginetan war as marking the downfall of the -naval power that Athens had enjoyed during the dark ages, or, as the -legend puts it, after the fall of Minos, when the Kalaurian league and -the navy of the naukraries were potent realities. The power that brings -about this downfall is that of the Argive tyrant Pheidon. - - - - - Appendix D (to p. 170). _Early Athenian Dress_ - - -Thucydides[1637] quotes Athenian dress in the introductory chapters of -his first book to illustrate his thesis that civilization and comfort -are extremely modern things. He divides Athenian history from this -standpoint into three periods, the first that when men went about armed, -the second that of luxurious Ionic fashions, and the third that in which -they reverted to simple or rational dress (μετρία ἐσθής). It is -difficult to date the beginning of Thucydides’ second period later than -the first half of the seventh century. At the time indeed when -Thucydides wrote his remarks it was not very long since elderly men of -the wealthy class in Athens had given up the Ionic dress. It has -sometimes been maintained that the dress was always confined to old men, -and that Thucydides implies that Ionic at Athens had been recently in -full fashion. But the tone of the passage suggests rather the old -gentleman who clings to the fashions of an earlier age. Already in the -seventies of the fifth century B.C. the woman who typifies Greece in -Xerxes’ dream is dressed by Aeschylus in Doric robes[1638] and the -monuments confirm the view which regards the Persian Wars as marking the -change. - -But that does not end Thucydides’ evidence. He speaks of fashions in -Sparta as well as in Athens. The return to simple dress was started by -the Spartans (μετρίᾳ δ’ αὖ ἐσθῆτι πρῶτοι Λακεδαιμόνιοι ἐχρήσαντο). This -statement has two implications[1639]. The Spartans must have reverted to -Doric costume before the Persian Wars, and previous to this reversion -they must, like the Athenians, have worn some sort of Ionic costume. The -importance of these allusions to Sparta seems scarcely to have been -realized, no doubt because the controversy took shape before the -excavations of the British School at Sparta had challenged many of the -received views on the history of archaic Sparta. The very large finds of -ivory and lead figurines of the seventh and sixth centuries[1640] show -that artistically at least the Spartans of that period were by no means -the austere devotees of simplicity that they became in the classical -age. Spartan simplicity in fact probably dates in large measure from the -days of Chilon, the reformer of the middle of the sixth century[1641]. -It is not improbable that the simple dress at Sparta came in with the -simple life at just about this period. It is already implied for Spartan -young women by the epithet φαινομηρίδες (showing the thigh) of the poet -Ibycus, a contemporary of Chilon. There is nothing in Thucydides to -discountenance the assumption of an interval of about fifty years -between the beginning of simple dress at Sparta, and its adoption at -Athens[1642]. The tyranny at Athens roughly covers this period, and -standing as it did for material luxury, sufficiently accounts for the -interval. Athenian luxury, at least in the matter of dress, is said by -Thucydides to have started earlier than Spartan, and Spartan, if it went -out in the middle of the sixth century, must plainly have come in -considerably before that date. - -The Ionic costume is said by Herodotus to be strictly speaking not -Ionian but Carian[1643]. Eastern influence began to pass over from the -Greek cities of Asia Minor and pervade the more progressive parts of -Greece Proper early in the seventh century[1644]: so that once again -this seems to be the most probable period for the assumption of Ionic -dress at Athens. - -The same date is arrived at by working forward from Thucydides’ first -period, the age when men habitually went about armed. Thucydides is -notoriously sceptical about the existence of the culture so familiar to -us now under the names of Mycenaean and Minoan and it does not come into -his three periods of Greek dress. The first of these is plainly the dark -age that followed the downfall of Crete and Mycenae, the age of the -Geometric pottery which about the year 700 B.C. began to make way for -orientalizing styles. This is the period _par excellence_ of dress-pins -and fibulae as shown by archaeological finds[1645], and the end of it, -_i.e._ the beginning of the seventh century, would be the natural time -for regulations curtailing or prohibiting their use. - -Much has been made of the fact that Thucydides deals exclusively with -male attire and Herodotus with female, and scholars who maintain that -the Aeginetan disaster occurred towards the middle of the sixth century -argue that in early Athens men would take the lead even in matters of -dress[1646] and that the early date implied by Thucydides for the male -Ionic costume in Attica need not hold for the female as well. If the -distinct dates were established beyond dispute the difference of sex -might serve as an explanation. We have seen however that there is -nothing in the words of Herodotus to justify a sixth century date for -the adoption of Ionic costume by Athenian women. - - - - - Appendix E (to p. 249). _The Dating of the latest Vases from the Forum - Cemetery_ - - -Among the Forum vases that look late are some skyphoi like the “Later -Ionic” of Sieveking and Hackl’s Munich Catalogue, _e.g._ _Notiz._ 1903, -p. 137, fig. 17, pp. 407 f., figs. 36, 42, 55, 57 (the last two from the -same grave as fig. 53, see _ibid._ fig. 52). These skyphoi are closely -related to a series of small, flat, handleless bowls similarly -decorated, _Notiz._ 1903, p. 137, fig. 17, p. 388, figs. 14, 15 (grave -G), p. 409, fig. 39 (grave I), p. 425, fig. 56 (grave K): for the -stylistic connexion cp. _Notiz._ 1903, p. 425, fig. 56 (handleless bowl) -with _ibid._ fig. 57 (skyphos). The context in which they were found at -Rome points to a date not later than fairly early in the sixth century: -_Notiz._ 1903, p. 137, fig. 17, was found acting as a lid (see _ibid._ -fig. 16) to the skyphos _ibid._ fig. 17 of the later Ionic style; -_Notiz._ 1903, p. 388, figs. 14, 15, were found in a single skeleton -grave (_ibid._ p. 385 and fig. 11) along with the Proto-Corinthian -lekythos, p. 388, fig. 17, that is probably of the seventh century, and -other vases that are probably of the sixth: fig. 39 is from a single -skeleton grave that contained also the “later Ionic” skyphoi, figs. 36, -42 (_ibid._ p. 400 and figs. 28, 31); fig. 56 is from a single skeleton -grave and had a similar context (_ibid._ p. 418 and fig. 52). All these -handleless cups (figs. 14, 15, 39, 56) are pierced near the brim with -pairs of small holes. This is a practice known in Greek pottery of the -Geometric and Proto-Corinthian period (_J.H.S._ XXX. p. 241, n. 42: add -_Notiz._ 1895, p. 238, found in the same grave with two sixth century -black figure vases. Two vases apparently somewhat similar in shape, -style, and decoration to this flat, handleless series, but without the -bored holes, were found at Rhitsona in graves of the end of the sixth -century, _Arch. Eph._ 1912, p. 115, fig. 15) but not to black and red -figure Attic pottery: it occurs on the probably seventh century cup from -grave M, _Notiz._ 1905, pp. 151, 155, figs. 9, 12. - -Other late-looking vases are the two figured _Notiz._ 1905, p. 150, fig. -7. Pais, _Ricerche_, I. (1915), p. 382, quoting Helbig dates them later -than the sixth century. But Piganiol, _Journ. des Sav._ 1915, p. 552, n. -4, supported by Dugas, argues for the possibility of an earlier date on -the ground that, though the shape might belong to the end of the fifth -century, the decoration, for which cp. Louvre C 44, figured by Pottier, -_Album_, I. pl. 23, points to the seventh. This argument will hardly do -as it stands. The vase cannot be older than its shape, which rather -recalls the fifth and fourth century festooned cups from Gnathia. But -though it so much recalls that period, it does not seem to find an exact -parallel in it, and the divergence may be more significant than the -similarity. No other vases were found in the same grave with these two, -so there is no context to suggest an earlier date: but if I am not -mistaken, fifth and fourth century Gnathia ware is similarly recalled -with a similar slight difference by another Forum vase, _Notiz._ 1903, -p. 408, fig. 37, found in a grave with nine others (including figs. 36, -38, 39, 42, quoted above) which all point to a sixth century date. It -must not be assumed that features common to early Greek and Italic wares -always began earlier in Greece: a whole series of Etruscan bucchero -vases has broad ribbon-shaped vertical handles that in Greek ware are -distinctive of the late sixth century potter Nikosthenes: yet one of -these bucchero vases comes from the early (seventh century) Regulini -Galassi tomb at Caere, see _Roem. Mitt._ XXII. p. 126, fig. 18, p. 207. -For Forum examples see _Notiz._ 1903, pp. 408, 422, figs. 38, 53. - - - - - Appendix F (to p. 249). _Evidence for Intramural Burials in Rome_ - - -Servius declares that the people of Rome and other cities originally -buried all their dead within the city and actually within the -house[1647]. The latter statement appears to be an inference from the -worship of the lares, “people used all to be buried in their own houses, -whence has arisen the practice of worshipping the lares within the -house,” but may be none the less true for that reason[1648]. Intramural -burials are prohibited in the Twelve Tables, “hominem mortuum in urbe ne -sepelito neve urito[1649],” a prohibition which implies a practice still -to some extent prevalent at the time[1650]. In the consulship of Duilius -the prohibition was re-enacted[1651], showing that even then the -practice was not altogether obsolete. Quite a number of exceptions were -allowed by law. Vestal virgins (both good and bad) and imperatores were -as such exempted[1652]. To come to concrete instances, the grandfather -of King Tullus Hostilius is said to have been buried “at the best spot -in the Forum[1653].” Tullus is a dubious figure in Roman history, and -still more so is his grandfather. There is some uncertainty too about -the case of the novem combusti, contemporaries of Spurius Cassius in the -early years of the republic[1654]. They may have been not cremated but -burnt alive[1655]. But there are plenty of later instances. Cicero -implies that the exceptions were well known when after quoting the -prohibition in his _de Legibus_ he makes another character in it at once -exclaim: “But what of the famous men who have been buried in the city -since?,” and immediately proceeds to quote the families of Valerius -Publicola and Postumius Tubertus, and the individual case of C. -Fabricius, buried in the Forum itself in 275 B.C. The exceptions in -favour of the Valerii and the Postumii apparently go back to the -beginning of the republic, when the consuls P. Valerius Publicola and P. -Postumius Q. f. Tubertus were buried within the walls[1656]. To the same -period went back the concession to the Claudii of a burial-place under -the Capitol[1657]. The intramural (?) tomb of the Cincii, and that of -“quidam Argiuorum illustres uiri” said to have been buried within the -city, rest on more doubtful evidence[1658]. That of the seven military -tribunes buried near the Circus in 267 B.C. may have been still without -the city. - -The archaeological evidence for intramural burials at Rome has been -discussed by Graffunder. At least two cases are well attested for the -early republican period[1659]. - - - - - INDEX - - - _A.J.A._ see _American Journal of Archaeology_ - - Aahmes, see Amasis, Pharaoh of Egypt - - Abdul Hamid, 270 - - Abel (E.), _Scholia Vetera in Pindari Nemea et Isthmia_, cited 258 n. 2 - - Abertawe (Swansea), 106 n. 3 - - _Abhandlungen d. bayerisch.

Amphikrates was probably a legitimate king of the period - before the abolition of monarchy: very possibly he was a contemporary - of the Argive Pheidon (below, pp. 177–8).

Edgar’s account of those found in 1899 is - better, though by no means adequate. Of 108 probable dedications (some - are too fragmentary to be certain), 48 are on vases (black glaze, - black figure, red figure) that cannot have been made before the reign - of Amasis, 33 are on cups of types that certainly lasted into his - reign, 6 on Naukratite fragments (phase not stated), 2 on (late) - Milesian. The rest are on fabrics difficult to date from the meagre - descriptions. Unfortunately this collection is not typical. It is to - be regretted that Edgar thought it “unnecessary to state the - provenance of each separate inscription” (_B.S.A._ V. p. 53). Sixteen - have dedications to the gods of the Greeks, and only two to Apollo. We - may conclude that a large percentage come from the Hellenium and are - therefore after 570. But this does not prove a late date for graffiti - generally. Of the sixteen dedications to the gods of the Greeks - fifteen are on black figure or black glaze vases: the other is on one - of the 33 cups mentioned above. This fact suggests that the - dedications generally could have been dated from the vases they are - inscribed on if the data had been made available, and that Gardner was - fairly right in his main conclusion although wrong in his method of - reaching it. Of the Milesian fragments one has a dedication to Apollo, - of the Naukratite two (both from the old Southern “Temenos”) are to - Aphrodite. It is significant that among the finds of the reign of - Amasis “the early local pottery was disappointingly scarce” (_B.S.A._ - V. p. 57).

The marked differences between the pottery finds - at Naukratis and Daphnae are now generally recognized as being local, - not temporal, except in so far as the Daphnae series ends earlier.

The word analyses p (article)—san (man, vendor)—mtk. - -Footnote 658: - - Earlier Egyptologists derived the word quite differently, explaining - it as Libyan (_e.g._ V. Stern, _Z. f. Aeg. Spr._ 1883, pp. 24 f. and - references, _ad loc._) or Ethiopian (= son of the Sun), (Brugsch, - _Ges. Aeg._ pp. 731 f., but cp. Wiedemann, _Aeg. Ges._ p. 623). Meyer, - _Ges. Aeg._ p. 363, describes it simply as “not Egyptian,” presumably - as not occurring before the Saite period. But this is no argument if - the name was till then extremely plebeian. Petrie rejects “man (vendor - of) mixing bowls,” as manifestly absurd and analyses P-sam-te-k = the - (Egyptian) lion’s (Upper Egyptian) son (Ethiopian) the (Ethiopian - suffix) (_Hist. Eg._ III. p. 320, accepted as probable by How and - Wells, _ad Hdt._ II. 151). He compares Shaba-ta-ka (Ethiopian dynasty, - 707–693) = wild cat’s son the; but this is no parallel for the real - difficulty, which is the extraordinary hybrid composition. Linguistic - hybrids are legion. Our own forefathers enriched Latin with the word - quicksethedgavit. But so complicated a hybrid as Petrie implies cannot - be considered seriously without some very solid evidence for really - parallel monstrosities. Spiegelberg (_Orient. Litt. Zeit._ 1905, p. - 560), after arguing convincingly against Petrie, accepts “bowl vendor” - as a popular etymology, but rejects it as the real meaning, “denn kein - König wird Mischkrughändler heissen wollen.” He explains the word as - really meaning “man of the god Mtk”; only no such god is known. Even - if there were, Spiegelberg’s explanation cuts both ways. If, as the - evidence has shown, there is a probability that Psammetichus I had - really been a vendor of something like mixing bowls, and got his name - from his occupation, some such aristocratic explaining away of the - plebeian name may perhaps have induced him and his successors to keep - it, just as Mrs Snooks in one of Wells’ stories became more than - reconciled to her name after it had been explained as an abbreviation - of Sevenoaks and spelt accordingly. - -Footnote 659: - - _Dem.

As Babelon himself goes on - to observe, the princes of this period, like modern monarchs in the - East, “had in reserve in their treasuries enormous quantities of gold - and silver ingots.” He cites Midas, Alyattes, Croesus and Darius as - coining according to their various requirements from this reserve. But - there is a point that Babelon does not touch. What started these - monarchs coining? If, as Babelon assumes, it was simply the fact that - the previous private coiners supplied bad coins, the position of coins - is on a par with that of any other commodity. We might expect to hear - of kings who became butchers and bakers to ensure their subjects good - bread and good meat. It is therefore more than doubtful whether the - initiative is likely to have come generally from the ruling sovereign. - To imagine again a popular clamour for state control, as is done by - Babelon, _ibid._ pp. 168–9, is probably an anachronism. The platform - would be too constructive and original for a popular agitation. As a - general rule constructive movements begin or at least take shape with - outstanding individuals. Parallels from later periods, such as quoted - by Babelon, p. 171, are dangerous. A populace can of course clamour - for the restoration of lost rights and advantages, that of a state - coinage among the rest. In the days that we are considering no - precedents could be quoted for a state currency. On the other hand, - the situation as conceived either by Babelon or myself implies - outstanding individuals in the mercantile class. It is surely among - these that it is most natural to look for the beginnings alike of a - state coinage and of the new statesmanship that sprang up with it. - This need not, of course, imply that occasionally a monarch of the old - regime did not grasp the situation and himself institute a state - coinage. Pheidon of Argos is a case in point. - -Footnote 792: - - Hdt. VI. 127. - -Footnote 793: - - See below, pp. 156–158. - -Footnote 794: - - Aristot. _Pol._ VII.

Note that in later times Pheidon was regarded - as a typical miser, οἱ λοιποὶ τῶν Ἀθήνησι νεοπλούτων Φείδωνός τε εἰσι - καὶ Γνίφωνος μικροπρεπέστεροι, Alciphron, III. 34, where, however, the - statement may be an inference from the name. - -Footnote 796: - - Strabo VIII. 376, “Ephorus says that in Aegina money was first coined - by Pheidon”; _Marm. Par._ (Jacoby) under 895 B.C. “Pheidon the - Argive ... made a silver coinage in Aegina (ἀφ’ οὗ Φείδων ὁ Ἀργεῖος - ἐδήμευσε τὰ μέτρα καὶ σταθμὰ κατεσκεύασε καὶ νόμισμα ἀργυροῦν ἐν - Αἰγίνῃ ἐποίησεν)”: _Et.

Pheidon) invented the measures called Pheidonian, and weights, - and a stamped coinage, particularly that in silver,” and Pollux IX. - 83, “whether Pheidon the Argive was first to strike money or Demodike - of Cyme when married to Midas of Phrygia or Erichthonios and Lykos or - the Lydians or the Naxians.” Aelian, _V.H._ XII. 10, in a list of - Aeginetan achievements mentions their invention of money: he has no - occasion to mention Pheidon but rather the reverse, so that no - conclusion can be drawn from the omission of the name. - -Footnote 797: - - For Aegina as the first place in Greece to coin see Pindar, _Isthm._ - IV. (V.), 1–3: - - Μᾶτερ Ἀελίου πολυώνυμε Θεία - σέο γ’ ἕκατι καὶ μεγασθενῆ νόμισαν - χρυσὸν ἄνθρωποι περιώσιον ἄλλων. - - The statement of the _Et. Mag._ s.v. Εὐβοικὸν νόμισμα that “Pheidon - king of Argos struck a gold coinage in Euboea, a place in Argos,” is - manifestly a hopeless confusion.

(V.), 1315_b_, where Cypselus’ alleged demagogism is - probably only a late inference from a genuine tradition that he was - not a soldier: see chap I. p. 31. The passages quoted in the last note - from Heraclides and Nicolaus go on at once to mention that Periander - instituted an armed bodyguard, and Nicolaus adds that “he made - repeated campaigns and was warlike.” This statement may be accepted - though the context of the last passage shows that the picture of the - tyrannical Periander is influenced by the conception of the tyrant as - a military despot prevalent since Aristotle (see chap. I. pp. 28 f.). - The maxim καλὸν ἡσυχία (peace is a good thing) is attributed to - Periander by Diog. Laert. I. 7. 4, but such utterances are notoriously - quite consistent with the most aggressive military policy. - -Footnote 973: - - Nic.

Reasons for not accepting Myres on the Milesian thalassocracy - are suggested in the chapter on Egypt, but his account of Periander’s - naval support of Thrasybulus is valuable and convincing. Myres quotes - the story of Arion and his wonderful adventure with the pirates and - the dolphins on the Corinthian merchant ship that was bearing him to - Periander’s court, Hdt. I. 23–4; Plut. _Sept. Sap. Conv._ 18 f. - (_Moral._ 161). - -Footnote 977: - - Hdt. III. 48, 49; Nic. Dam. _F.H.G._ III. pp. 393–4; Plut. _de Mal. - Hdt._ 22, 23 (_Moral._ 859–861); Diog. Laert. I. 7. 2. Hence Movers, - _Phoen._ II. iii. 109, calls Periander a slave dealer; so also - Wilisch, _Gœtt. Gel. Anz._ 1880, p. 1202, _Jahrb. Gym. Zittau_, 1901, - p. 22, n. 9, who refers also to Hdt. VIII. 105 (on Panionios the Chian - who in the early part of the fifth century “made his living” by - mutilating boys whom “he took and sold at Sardis and Ephesus for great - sums”). Wilisch infers also, _ibid._ p. 22, from the ἱερόδουλοι or - consecrated prostitutes of the Corinthian temple of Aphrodite, an - import from Asia to Corinth of female slaves: see Athen. XIII. 573; - Strabo VIII. 378 and perhaps 347. This view is not necessarily - contradicted by Heraclides, who declares (_F.H.G._ II. p. 213) that - Periander drowned all the procuresses in the city (Steinmetz however - reads ἀπέδυσε, stripped). Heraclides is not indeed discredited by the - fact that Athenaeus X. 443_a_, makes not only Periander but also - Cleomenes or Cleomis tyrant of Methymna dispose of loose women in this - Napoleonic way. The double assignation decides neither whether the - story is true or false nor which way went the borrowing. But Wilisch - and Heraclides may both be right. A tyrant who traded in prostitutes - might yet be most severe on unlicensed prostitution. - -Footnote 978: - - Busolt, _Gr.

Porzio, _Cipselidi_, p. 235, n., rightly points out that the - authors who preserve this notice did not so understand it, but wrongly - maintains that this fact is fatal to the explanation. Porzio’s own - explanation (that the Cypselids’ taxation led to discontent which - endangered the tyrants whose “main care was therefore to empty the - city by forcing their subjects to live solitary and scattered in the - country,” _ibid._ p. 236) runs counter to the facts, which show that - cities increased under the tyranny. - -Footnote 983: - - _F.H.G._ II. 213. - -Footnote 984: - - Diog.

Barth, _Corinth. Comm._ p. 14. Strabo calls the - Bacchiads tyrants, probably in the later sense of bad despotic rulers. - Note, however, that he associates their “tyranny” with great wealth - and commercial connexions. “The Bacchiads too became tyrants, and - being wealthy and many and of distinguished family for some two - hundred years they held rule and exploited the market with impunity. - These Cypselus put down and himself became tyrant.... Of the wealth - associated with this house there is evidence in the dedication of - Cypselus at Olympia, a hammered gold statue of large size.” Busolt, - _Lakedaim._ I. 201–3, thinks that the Bacchiads had the industry of - Corinth in their own hands, and that they employed in it numerous - slaves who proved irresistible competitors to the crowd of _petit - bourgeois_, and that Cypselus made himself tyrant by putting himself - at the head of the latter. Servile competition was put out of the way - when Cypselus had made himself tyrant, and the working classes of the - citizen population were occupied in numerous public works. Busolt - rightly recognizes the commercial element in Cypselus’ power, but the - evidence is all against a highly organized servile industry at this - early date; in Corinth itself the legislation against servile labour - is attributed to Periander, and the date of the legislation is a good - indication of the date at which servile labour first seriously - threatened free; the exploiting of the market by the Bacchiads is not - evidence for commercial undertakings on the part of the Bacchiads, but - rather of their having held aloof from commerce. - -Footnote 987: - - This suggestion is quite consistent with the vague statement of - Aelian, _V.H._ I. 19, that they fell “through immoderate luxury” (διὰ - τρυφὴν τὴν ἔξω τοῦ μέτρου). - -Footnote 988: - - Busolt, _Gr.

On these - vases as melting pots cp. Gerhard, _Trinkschalen_, p. 22 - (Schmelzkessel); Furtwaengler, _Berl. Cat._ 2294 [“above, a round - cauldron with lid (inside it metal?)”]. So Saglio and de Launay _ap._ - Saglio _Dict. d. Ant._ s.v. Caelatura, p. 790, ferrum, p. 1090, n. 6. - For the way metals may have been smelted in these vases cp. Diod. III. - 14 (from Agatharcides, describing the mining and working of gold in - “Furthest Egypt” (περὶ τὰς ἐσχατιὰς τῆς Αἰγύπτου) under the - Ptolemies). When the metal has been pounded and washed and the gold - dust (ψῆγμα) is left behind “finally other skilled workmen (τεχνῖται) - take what has been collected and cast it into earthenware pots (εἰς - κεραμεοὺς χύτρους); and mixing in the right proportions lumps of lead - and grains of salt and further a little tin and some barley bran, they - put that in too, and having made a well fitting lid and carefully - sealed it (περιχρίσαντες) with clay, they heat it on a furnace for - five days and nights without a break. Then letting it cool they find - nothing left in the vases (ἀγγείοις) but the gold.” If the process - thus described is open to criticism it should be remembered (Bluemner, - _Gewerbe u. Künste_, IV. 132) that Diodorus was not a metallurgist, - and that ancient methods were probably far from perfect, even of their - kind. Bluemner, _ibid._ IV. p. 363, regards Saglio 2964 (above, fig. - 27) as a smithy. For κάμινος = smithy cp. _e.g._ Lucian, _Prometh._ 5. - But the furnace here is too big and elaborate for a smithy. None of - our three vase pictures shows an anvil. What Bluemner _ibid._ calls a - small anvil is too small to be an anvil at all; cp. the lump of iron - in the same picture and also Bluemner’s own fig. 53, which shows an - anvil of a natural size; cp. too the similar projections to Bluemner’s - supposed anvil in the corresponding position on the furnaces of our - other two vase pictures, both of which projections are obviously not - anvils. The picture of an unquestionable smithy, Bluemner, fig. 53, - shows a quite different type of furnace, not half a man’s height, - called in Bluemner “ein niedriger konisch geformter Schmelzherd.” The - heavy hammers in Saglio, _Dict. d. Ant._ fig. 2964, do not prove a - smithy; they may have been used for various other purposes, _e.g._ - breaking up the ore; cp. Diod. V. 13 (Aithalia in Etruria), τοὺς - λίθους καίουσιν ἔν τισι φιλοτέχνοις καμίνοις ... (καὶ) ... - καταμερίζουσιν εἰς μεγέθη σύμμετρα ... ταῦτα ἔμποροι κομίζουσιν εἰς τὰ - ἐμπόρια.

On Egypt and Miletus see above, Chapter IV. To - the evidence usually quoted for Egyptian influence on Periander we - should perhaps add a story told by Diog. Laert. I. 7. 3. When - Periander was an old man he is said to have provided for his own death - and burial in the following way. He directed two men to kill and bury - a man they would meet on a certain night at a certain lonely spot. He - arranged with four others that they should kill these two on their way - back. The four in their turn were to be disposed of in like manner by - a larger band. At the appointed hour Periander himself went to the - spot to which the two had been directed and was there killed and - buried by them. The essence of this story is that Periander took - extraordinary precautions to prevent anyone knowing the place of his - burial. Such precautions at once recall Egypt.

Dam. - _F.H.G._ III. p. 393 mentions a Gorgos son of Periander who broke his - neck when chariot racing. There can be little doubt that in all these - passages the same name should be read, and that that name should be - Gorgos, which appears on Ambracian coins as that of a local hero. See - _Mon. Ined.

In this case there is the further - complication that the adornment may have been indefinitely later than - the dedication. But there is no evidence that it was.

The absence in some cases of seventh - century Corinthian counterparts to the sixth century Ionic finds is - due mainly to the accidents of discovery. The earliest architectural - terra cottas from the regions round Rome are for instance all sixth - century and Ionic: but the literary tradition ascribes the invention - of terra cotta antefixes to Butades, who worked at Corinth (Pliny, - _N.H._ XXXV. 43 (12); cp. _ibid._ 45; cp. also _Year’s Work Class. - Stud._ 1914, p. 2 (D. Lamb on recent finds at Corfu)). We may expect - therefore that when more attention has been paid to excavation and - publication we shall find that seventh century Italy possessed (which - probably means produced) architectural terra cottas, and that these - terra cottas were in style Corinthian. A fresco at Tarquinii, _Bull. - Comm._ 1911, p. 26, fig. 9, depicts a gable which recalls that of the - actual temple recently unearthed in the Corinthian colony of Corcyra. - At Conca the votive offerings, which go back further than the - architectural terra cottas, include both Proto-Corinthian and - Corinthian pottery (Pinza, _Mon. Ant._ XV. p. 494; Barnabei and Cozza, - _Notiz._ 1896, pp. 29 f.). That the Conca finds lend plausibility to - the Demaratus story is recognized by Rizzo, _Bull.

The Sicyonians - contracted with them for statues of the gods, but before they were - completed the artists complained that they were ill used and departed - to Aetolia” (Pliny, _N.H._ XXXVI. 4). Gardner suggests that the - artists left Sicyon on the death of Cleisthenes (_Gk. Sculp._^2 p. - 103). The wild and half civilized Aetolia seems an odd refuge for such - highly skilled craftsmen. Beyond Aetolia from Sicyon lay the city of - Ambracia, which Pliny declares to have been crammed with works of - Dipoenus (_N.H._ XXXVI. 4). On the strength presumably of this - statement, Gardner (_ibid._) makes the artists retire to Ambracia from - Sicyon. Ambracia was a Corinthian colony and appears to have continued - under a tyrant of the house of Cypselus after the fall of the great - tyrant houses in the isthmus states. The Sicyonians were ordered by - Apollo to recall the artists and let them finish their work, and this - was done though it cost the Sicyonians dear (magnis mercedibus - impetratum est, Pliny, _N.H._ XXXVI. 4). It may be noted that tyranny - too was revived at Sicyon. A tyrant Aeschines was expelled by the - Spartans, presumably towards the end of the sixth century, Plut. _de - Hdt. Malig._ 21 (_Moral._ 859). The wanderings of Dipoenus and Scyllis - thus point to a possible connexion between the tyrannical form of - government and good conditions for skilled labour. - -Footnote 1330: - - Paus.

It - has been suggested that Phalaris was pre-eminently the leader of the - Agrigentines against the Punic peril (Bury, _Hist. Greece_^2, p. 297), - and that he played a similar part to that played during a later - invasion by the Syracusan Dionysius. For this suggestion there is no - evidence whatsoever. There is no certainty either that the invasion of - Malchus occurred in the age of Phalaris or that Agrigentum was - endangered by it or even alarmed. On the other hand there are hints - that Phalaris was the reverse of anti-Carthaginian. The Semites of - Carthage were devoted to the cult of Moloch, in whose worship no small - part was played by the molten image of a calf and the offering to it - of human sacrifices. Perhaps the most likely origin of the story of - the bull of Phalaris is to be sought in this Moloch worship. The - tyrant may have had a large Phoenician contingent among his foreign - employees and have very much shocked his Greek subjects by allowing - these Semites to practise Semitic rites in Agrigentum.

Larcher, writing in 1792, is less complete, but - extremely interesting from his attitude towards Hermias’ rebellion - from the king of Persia. “Moi-même, j’ai longtemps été persuadé qu’un - rebelle qui avoit été justement puni du dernier supplice, n’étoit pas - un personnage assez important pour mériter qu’on s’en occupât.

He seems to have been notoriously accessible to - economic arguments. “Anyhow Kallisthenes in his Apophthegms says that - the poet Persinos, being neglected by Euboulos of Atarneus went to - Mitylene, and when Euboulos expressed surprise wrote to him that it - was because he found it more pleasing exchanging in Mitylene than in - Atarneus the Phocaean staters he had brought with him,” Poll.

Even on the most liberal estimate it sinks - into utter insignificance in the light of the conquests of Alexander, - which so shortly followed it. - -Footnote 1427: - - _Pol._ II. 1273_a_; III. 1280_a_. - -Footnote 1428: - - _Pol._ VIII.

Plato’s sixth letter, which is addressed to - Hermias and Erastos and Koriskos (cp. Diog. Laert. III. 1. 31 (46)), - urges the three to form a “single bond of friendship” (μίαν φιλίας - συμπλοκήν). Boeckh, _Kl. Schr._ VI. p. 191, describes Hermias’ tyranny - as “eine Hetairie mehrerer, an deren Spitze ein anerkanntes Haupt - stand.” Hermias was at least primus inter pares; cp. the use made of - his seal, Polyaen. VI. 48. - -Footnote 1431: - - Diog. Laert. V. 1. 7 (6); Athen. XV. 696; cp. also the epigram - ascribed to Aristotle on Hermias’ statue at Delphi, Diog.

He is not called tyrant by - Aristotle either in the Paean (where he is called Ἀταρνέος ἔντροφος, - v.l. ἔντροπος (= ἐπίτροπος, viceroy, steward?), see Larcher, _op. - cit._ p. 244), or in the epitaph Diog. Laert. V. 1. 7. The - _Oeconomica_, included among the works of Aristotle and probably - written by one of his pupils, refers to him without calling him tyrant - (II. 28: on authorship see ed. Teubner, introd. p. viii). Nor is - Euboulos so called where mentioned in the _Politics_ (II. 1267_a_). - Demetrius may be following the Aristotelian tradition when he calls - Hermias simply ὁ τοῦ Ἀταρνέως ἄρξας (but cp. _ibid._ παρὰ τοῖς - τυράννοις). So Suid. ὅστις ἦν ἄρχων Ἀταρνέως. In other writers Hermias - is generally styled tyrant (so Strabo, Diod., Diog. Laert., Dion. - Hal., Lucian). - -Footnote 1434: - - Diod. XV. 7; Plut. _Dio_, 5; Diog. Laert. III. 1. 14 (19). The story - may be a fiction (Burnet, _Thales to Plato_, p. 211), but if so it is - probably based on the fact of a quarrel between the tyrant and the - philosopher. - -Footnote 1435: - - Dionysius himself had a clearer conception of the danger of a - monopolist becoming a political potentate, as appears from a passage - of Aristotle himself. “In Sicily a certain person who had had money - deposited with him bought up all the iron from the iron works - (σιδηρείων), and after that, when the merchants came from the emporia, - he was the sole salesman. He did not greatly overcharge; but none the - less on fifty talents he made a hundred. When Dionysius perceived this - he told him to take off the money, but not to remain any longer in - Syracuse, since he had discovered a source of income that was - prejudicial to his interests.” (Arist. _Pol._ II. 1259_a_.) The - incident as described hardly, however, suggests that the monopolist - was Dionysius’ greatest danger. - -Footnote 1436: - - Strabo XIII. 623. - -Footnote 1437: - - An inscription published _J.H.S._ XXII. p. 195 gives his father the - Greek name of Attalus, but he is described by Athenaeus, XIII. 577_b_, - quoting Carystius, as the son of a courtesan flute girl from - Paphlagonia, and by Pausanias, I. 8. 1, as a Paphlagonian eunuch. - -Footnote 1438: - - Strabo XIII. 623; Paus.

(2) These latter owed - their rise as much as earlier tyrants to the hatred that the lower - classes bore the nobles. (3) Herodotus does not distinguish king from - tyrant.

The chapters on Argos, Corinth, and Rome are based on -papers read to the Oxford Philological Society in 1913 and to the -Bristol branch of the Classical Association in 1914.</p> - -<p class='c007'>As regards the presentation of my material here, it has been my -endeavour to make the argument intelligible to readers who are -not classical scholars and archaeologists. The classics have ceased -to be a water-tight compartment in the general scheme of study and -research, and my subject forms a chapter in general economic history -which might interest students of that subject who are not classical -scholars. On the other hand classical studies have become so specialised -and the literature in each department has multiplied so enormously -that unless monographs can be made more or less complete in themselves -and capable of being read without referring to a large number -of large and inaccessible books, it will become impossible for -classical scholars to follow the work that is being done even in their -own subject beyond the limits of their own particular branch. -For these reasons ancient authorities have been mainly given in -literal English translations, and when, as happens in almost every -chapter, information has to be sought from vases, coins, or inscriptions, -I have tried to elucidate my point by means of explanatory -descriptions and illustrations.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The work has involved me in numerous obligations which I -gladly take this opportunity of acknowledging. In 1907 I received -grants from the Worts travelling bachelors’ fund of Cambridge -University and from Gonville and Caius College to visit Greece -for the purpose of collecting archaeological evidence upon the -history of the early tyranny. This purpose was partially diverted -because shortly after reaching Greece I became associated with the -late Dr R. M. Burrows in the excavation of the Greek cemetery -at Rhitsona in Boeotia and in the study and publication of the -<span class='pageno' id='Page_vi'>vi</span>pottery found there. This pottery dates mainly from the age of the -tyrants, and the results of my work at it appear in several of the -succeeding chapters. To Dr Burrows I owe also the encouragement -that led me to start working on the early tyranny: my main idea -on the subject first occurred to me when I was lecturing on Greek -history as his assistant at University College, Cardiff.</p> - -<p class='c007'>I have also received much assistance at various times and in -various ways from Professor G. A. T. Davies, another former -colleague of mine at Cardiff, and from several of my Reading -colleagues, particularly Professor W. G. de Burgh, Mr D. Atkinson, -and my wife. Many other debts are recorded in the body of the -book: but considering how many and various they have been, I can -scarcely hope that none has been passed over without acknowledgement.</p> - -<p class='c007'>But of all my obligations the earliest and chiefest is to Sir William -Ridgeway. It is to the unique quality of his teaching at Cambridge -that I owe the stimulus that suggested to me the explanation here -offered of the origin of tyranny.</p> - -<div class='lg-container-r'> - <div class='linegroup'> - <div class='group'> - <div class='line'>P.

No doubt the greatest -final achievements of the Greek race belong to the -two centuries that followed. But practically all that is meant by the -Greek spirit and the Greek genius had its birth in the earlier period. -Literature and art, philosophy and science are at this present day -largely following the lines that were then laid down for them, and -this is equally the case with commerce. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>(<em>a</em>) of the first known metal coins,<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -It was at the opening of -this epoch that the Greeks or their half hellenized -neighbours the Lydians brought about perhaps the -most epoch-making revolution in the whole history -of commerce by the invention of a metal coinage like those that -are still in circulation throughout the civilized world.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It was no accident that the invention was made precisely at this -time. Industry and commerce were simultaneously making enormous -strides. About the beginning of the seventh century the new -Lydian Dynasty of the Mermnadae made Sardis one of the most -important trading centres that have arisen in the world’s history. -The Lydian merchants became middlemen between Greece and the -Far East. Egypt recovered its prosperity and began rapidly to develop -commercial and other relations with its neighbours, including -the Greeks. Greek traders were pushing their goods by sea in all -directions from Spain to the Crimea. Concrete evidence of this -activity is still to be seen in the Corinthian and Milesian pottery -of the period that has been so abundantly unearthed as far afield as -Northern Italy and Southern Russia. It was a time of extraordinary -intellectual alertness. Thales and the numerous other philosophers -of the Ionian School were in close touch with the merchants and -manufacturers of their age. They were in fact men of science rather -than philosophers in the narrow modern sense of the latter word, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_2'>2</span>and most of them were ready to apply their science to practical and -commercial ends, as for example Thales, who is said to have made a -fortune by buying up all the oil presses in advance when his agricultural -observations had led him to expect a particularly plentiful -harvest<a id='r1' /><a href='#f1' class='c014'><sup>[1]</sup></a>. A corner in oil sounds very modern, and in fact the whole -of the evidence shows that in many ways this ancient epoch curiously -anticipated the present age.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>and (<em>b</em>) of the first rulers to be called tyrants.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Politically these two centuries are generally known as the age of -tyrants. The view that the prevalence of tyranny was -in some way connected with the invention of coinage -has been occasionally expressed<a id='r2' /><a href='#f2' class='c014'><sup>[2]</sup></a>. Radet has even -gone so far as to suggest that the first tyrant was -also the first coiner<a id='r3' /><a href='#f3' class='c014'><sup>[3]</sup></a>. He does not however go further than to suggest -that the tyrant started a mint and coinage when already on -the throne.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The new form of government was, I believe, based on the new form of capital.</div> - -<p class='c007'>The evidence appears to me to point to conclusions of a more -wide-reaching character. Briefly stated they are these: -that the seventh and sixth century Greek tyrants -were the first men in their various cities to realize the -political possibilities of the new conditions created by -the introduction of the new coinage, and that to a -large extent they owed their position as tyrants to a financial or -commercial supremacy which they had already established before -they attained to supreme political power in their several states.</p> - -<p class='c007'>In other words their position as I understand it has considerable -resemblances to that built up in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries -<span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">A.D.</span></span> by the rich bankers and merchants who made themselves -despots in so many of the city states of Italy. The most famous of -these are the Medici, the family who gave a new power to the -currency by their development of the banking business, and mainly -as a result of this became tyrants of Florence. Santo Bentivoglio -of Bologna passed from a wool factory to the throne. Another -despot of Bologna was the rich usurer Roméo Pepoli. At Pisa the -supreme power was grasped by the Gambacorti with an old merchant -named Pietro at their head. At Lodi it was seized by the millionaire -<span class='pageno' id='Page_3'>3</span>Giovanni Vignate. The above instances are taken from Symonds’ -sixth class of despots of whom he says that “in most cases great -wealth was the original source of despotic ascendancy<a id='r4' /><a href='#f4' class='c014'><sup>[4]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>This view deserves examination in the light of the modern financial revolution,</div> - -<p class='c007'>Still closer analogies lie at our very door. It is a commonplace -that we are in the midst of an industrial revolution. -This modern movement was already beginning a -century ago, when Byron pleaded the cause of the -frameworkers before the House of Lords. There are -of course obvious differences between the two revolutions. -That of the seventh and sixth centuries <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> -was mainly financial, that of the present time is mainly industrial. -But the difference is not so great as it at first sight appears<a id='r5' /><a href='#f5' class='c014'><sup>[5]</sup></a>. The -invention of a metal coinage was accompanied by great industrial -changes<a id='r6' /><a href='#f6' class='c014'><sup>[6]</sup></a>, and we can no more divide sharply the financial and -industrial activities of the great houses of archaic Greece than we -can separate the banking and the mercantile enterprises of the great -families of the cities of Italy at the time of the renaissance, such as -the wealthy Panciatighi of Florence, who lent money to the emperor -Sigismund and exported cloths to London, Avignon and North -Africa<a id='r7' /><a href='#f7' class='c014'><sup>[7]</sup></a>. On the other hand the modern industrial movement, -with its development of machinery and its organization of masters -and men into trusts and trade unions, has been accompanied by a -revolution in the nature of the currency. The modern financial -revolution began at the same time as the industrial. -<span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>which has replaced metal coins by paper,<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -Its earliest phases are described and discussed in -William Cobbett’s <cite>Paper against Gold</cite><a id='r8' /><a href='#f8' class='c014'><sup>[8]</sup></a>. Since -Cobbett’s days the paper currency which so distressed him has developed -enormously. Even before 1914 we were told that “Gold -already acts in England only as change for notes<a id='r9' /><a href='#f9' class='c014'><sup>[9]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_4'>4</span>It is not necessary here to examine in detail the various forms -taken by this new paper currency. It is enough to point out that -it enables property to be transferred and manipulated far more -rapidly and on far larger a scale than was previously possible<a id='r10' /><a href='#f10' class='c014'><sup>[10]</sup></a>. Only -one other point in the history of the new currency needs to be here -mentioned. It cannot be better expressed than in the words used -by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the House of Commons -on November 28th, 1914:</p> - -<p class='c015'>I have been much struck since I have been dealing with these transactions -(bills of exchange) with how little even traders who form a part of this great -machinery know about the mechanism of which they form an essential part.... -I do not think that the general public—and I am putting myself among -them—ever realized the extent to which the business not merely of this -country, but of the whole world, depended upon this very delicate and -complicated paper machinery.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Apparently it needed a European war to bring home to the modern -world of commerce the nature of its currency. This fact should -warn us against expecting to find in early Greece any very clear -recognition of the revolution in the currency that then took place. -When gold and silver coins were first circulated they had a corresponding -effect to the modern issues of paper. They enabled property -to be transferred with greater ease and rapidity. We may be sure -however that the character and possibilities of the new currency -did not at once receive universal recognition<a id='r11' /><a href='#f11' class='c014'><sup>[11]</sup></a>. The merchants in -the bazaars of Lydia and Ionia who best understood how to make -use of it must have profited enormously.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>and led many people to fear a new tyranny of wealth.</div> - -<p class='c007'>The experts in the new finance of the last two generations have -been exercising a profound influence upon politics -and government. There are many people, particularly -in America, who believe that there is a possibility -of this influence becoming supreme. It is worth -while quoting a few of these opinions:</p> - -<p class='c015'>This era is but a passing phase in the evolution of industrial Caesars, and -these Caesars will be of a new type—corporate Caesars<a id='r12' /><a href='#f12' class='c014'><sup>[12]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c015'>The flames of a new economic evolution run around us, and we turn to -find that competition has killed competition, that corporations are grown -greater than the state and have bred individuals greater than themselves, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_5'>5</span>and that the naked issue of our time is with property becoming master -instead of servant<a id='r13' /><a href='#f13' class='c014'><sup>[13]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c015'>For some months past the sugar trust has been the Government of the -United States<a id='r14' /><a href='#f14' class='c014'><sup>[14]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>In 1884 there seems even to have been an idea of running a -Standard Oil senator for the United States presidency. “Henry B. -Payne is looming up grandly in the character of a possible and not -altogether improbable successor to Mr Tilden as the Democratic -candidate for the presidency<a id='r15' /><a href='#f15' class='c014'><sup>[15]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>The danger of supreme power in America passing into the hands -of a few capitalists has even been publicly acknowledged by a President -of the United States during his period of office. “Mr Wilson -also discussed the division between capital and labour. He dwelt -for the greater part of the speech on the effort of ‘small bodies of -privileged men to resume control of the Government,’ and added: -‘We must again convince these gentlemen that the government of -this country belongs to us, not to them<a id='r16' /><a href='#f16' class='c014'><sup>[16]</sup></a>.’”</p> - -<p class='c007'>Similar views are expressed by French, German and Italian -writers. According to the most brilliant of modern Frenchmen the -government of France has in some recent periods been in the hands -of three or four groups of financiers<a id='r17' /><a href='#f17' class='c014'><sup>[17]</sup></a>.

Nor is -this the place to discuss from a more general point of view -the extent to which that opinion has been or seems likely to be -verified. To have indicated how widely prevalent is the fear of an -impending “new tyranny of wealth<a id='r21' /><a href='#f21' class='c014'><sup>[21]</sup></a>” or “tyranny of capital<a id='r22' /><a href='#f22' class='c014'><sup>[22]</sup></a>” is -by itself enough to show that the relation between the tyranny -and the new form of wealth that arose in the seventh and sixth -centuries before our era is a subject that deserves investigation, and -to show also that the particular view as to those relations that is -maintained in these pages has <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">a priori</span></i> plausibility<a id='r23' /><a href='#f23' class='c014'><sup>[23]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The evidence:</div> - -<p class='c007'>It should however be said at once that my view appears to have -been held by no one who has published opinions on -the subject from the fourth century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> onwards. -This however is not fatal. Later in this chapter reasons will be -suggested for holding that the true character of the early tyranny -was lost sight of in the days of Plato and Aristotle. Why truer views -on this particular subject should be recovered precisely at the present -period may be sufficiently explained by the modern financial revolution, -which makes it possible to approach the question from a point -which has scarcely been accessible during the last two thousand -years. With this warning we may proceed to state the nature of the -evidence in favour of this view that the earliest tyrannies were -founded and based on wealth.</p> - -<p class='c007'>(1) The greater part of it is drawn from anecdotes and incidental -statements of fact about particular seventh or sixth century tyrants -preserved in Herodotus and later Greek and Latin writers.

It will be convenient to examine at once this more -general evidence.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>a</em>) statements from the extant writings of the sixth century (Solon and Theognis),</div> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_7'>7</span>The only two writers of the age of the tyrants of whom more -than the merest scraps have come down to us are -Solon<a id='r24' /><a href='#f24' class='c014'><sup>[24]</sup></a> and Theognis<a id='r25' /><a href='#f25' class='c014'><sup>[25]</sup></a>. Both deal professedly with -the social and political problems of their day. But -both address audiences who are familiar with those -problems. Even if their whole works had been preserved -instead of a few hundred lines in either case, we should not -expect to have the fundamental problems explicitly stated. It would -be possible to read a large selection of articles and speeches by quite -the best journalists and politicians on many recent political measures -and at the end of it to be left in uncertainty as to the content and -purport of the measure in question. We must expect the same difficulty -in reading Solon and Theognis. And it must be confessed -that we find it. But there is nothing in the extant fragments of -either writer which discredits the theory. More than that there -are passages in both of them that become of the utmost significance -if the early tyrants owed their power to their previous wealth but -are rather pointless on any other hypothesis.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Solon’s position in relation to the tyranny is explained in the -chapter dealing with Athens.

Perhaps the fifth century writer who might be expected -to throw most light on the question is Pindar, who visited the courts -<span class='pageno' id='Page_10'>10</span>of the Sicilian tyrants and wrote odes in their honour.

It is therefore -all the more significant that wealth is so frequently regarded -by Pindar, who more than any other writer represents the transition -from the sixth century to the fifth, rather as a means to power than -as one of its rewards. Later documents, as has been said already, -give a different account of the early tyrants’ antecedents. But here -and there statements are to be found in them that, though perhaps -reconcilable with other views, only become fully significant on the -commercial theory.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Isocrates for instance speaks of the “huge wage bills and expenditures -of money by which all modern dynasts maintain their power<a id='r52' /><a href='#f52' class='c014'><sup>[52]</sup></a>.” -He wrote these words between 342 and 339 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span><a id='r53' /><a href='#f53' class='c014'><sup>[53]</sup></a>, but as his modern -times are contrasted with those of Agamemnon and he himself was -nearly thirty years old at the close of the fifth century, his modern -dynasts may well include sixth century tyrants like Peisistratus and -Polycrates, the more so as “dynasts” arose so seldom in fifth -century Greece.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>c</em>) some statements of fourth century writers,</div> - -<p class='c007'>Aristotle preserves the tradition that the early tyrants were good -business men. He speaks of “rendering account of -their receipts and expenditure, as has been done already -by certain of the tyrants.

The general character of these -“lawgivers” is a matter of some dispute; but they appear to have -differed from the tyrants in at least two points. They governed by -general consent and they marked an earlier stage in the economic -evolution of the city state<a id='r55' /><a href='#f55' class='c014'><sup>[55]</sup></a>. They are perhaps to be compared with -the “arbitrators” between employers and employed who in recent -times have sometimes enjoyed considerable influence<a id='r56' /><a href='#f56' class='c014'><sup>[56]</sup></a>. When Aristotle<a id='r57' /><a href='#f57' class='c014'><sup>[57]</sup></a> -emphasizes the fact that the best “lawgivers” were all drawn -from the citizens of moderate means (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐκ τῶν μέσων πολιτῶν</span>) he -is making a fairly pointless remark unless the same could not be -said of the tyrants of the period. That Aristotle did actually recognize -the connexion between tyranny and extremes of wealth and -poverty is shown by another passage of the <cite>Politics</cite><a id='r58' /><a href='#f58' class='c014'><sup>[58]</sup></a>:</p> - -<p class='c015'>For this reason it is very fortunate when those engaged in politics have -moderate but sufficient means, for where some have very great possessions -and others none, the result is either extreme democracy or unmitigated -oligarchy or tyranny, which is caused by both extremes. For unbridled -democracy and oligarchy lead to tyranny, the intermediate and more closely -allied forms of government do so far less.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The philosopher himself may have pictured some of the early -tyrants as having risen from being penniless demagogues. The difficulties -in the way of accepting the view that a poor man ever -became a tyrant before the democratic development of the fifth -century will be set forth later in this chapter. If there is any basis -of fact for Aristotle’s statement, the early tyrants must have come -from among the wealthiest of the citizens.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>d</em>) evidence as to industrial conditions during and after the age of the tyrants,</div> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_12'>12</span>There is nothing surprising in this conclusion. In the age that -saw merchants like Solon made practical dictators in -their native cities<a id='r59' /><a href='#f59' class='c014'><sup>[59]</sup></a>, and philosophers like Thales anticipating -the Rockefellers by making a corner in oil<a id='r60' /><a href='#f60' class='c014'><sup>[60]</sup></a>, -there must have been individuals with something of -the abilities of these great men, but little of their -disinterestedness, who would be quick to grasp the possibility of -reaching through the corner to the crown.</p> - -<p class='c007'>At a later date cornering became less easy. In fifth century -Athens there were statutes and magistrates (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">σιτοφύλακες</span>) to prevent -corners in corn, and we still have a speech of Lysias directed against -some speculators who had bought beyond the legal limit. The context -of a passage in this speech suggests that the general controllers -of the market (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἀγορανόμοι</span>) were expected to be on their guard -against corners in other articles<a id='r61' /><a href='#f61' class='c014'><sup>[61]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The detailed evidence in favour of this view is given in the -chapters that follow. It will be found however that these men who -made themselves tyrants through their riches were not all of them -mere speculators. Some at least had acquired their wealth from trade -or industry. This means that they were large employers of labour. -There are reasons for thinking that from this point of view they -would be politically far more influential than their successors in -business in the days of the Athenian democracy.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The big merchants and manufacturers of the fifth and fourth -centuries relied largely, and more and more as time went on, on -servile labour. The thousand miners whose services Nikias commanded -were all slaves. Six hundred slave miners were owned by -his contemporary Hipponikos and three hundred by Philemonides<a id='r62' /><a href='#f62' class='c014'><sup>[62]</sup></a>. -The hundred and twenty hands in the shield factory of the orator -Lysias were all slaves<a id='r63' /><a href='#f63' class='c014'><sup>[63]</sup></a>.

These instances might be -multiplied<a id='r68' /><a href='#f68' class='c014'><sup>[68]</sup></a>. Slaves were of course only a form of wealth<a id='r69' /><a href='#f69' class='c014'><sup>[69]</sup></a>. As -human beings they were entirely without influence on politics. It -would have been another matter if Nikias had had a big constituency -of miner citizens at his entire disposal. That I believe was one of -the great differences between Nikias and Peisistratus and generally -speaking between the captains of industry in the fifth and fourth -centuries and their predecessors in the seventh and sixth. The -evidence is not decisive, but as far as it goes it all points in this -direction.</p> - -<p class='c007'>At Athens in the generation that preceded the tyranny it is -reported of Solon that “he encouraged the citizens to take up -manual trades<a id='r70' /><a href='#f70' class='c014'><sup>[70]</sup></a>,” a policy perhaps to be connected with his release -from debt and semi-slavery of the “pelatai” and the “hektemoroi<a id='r71' /><a href='#f71' class='c014'><sup>[71]</sup></a>,” -since fresh employment had possibly to be found for many of these -liberated serfs. It is further reported of Solon that he offered the -citizenship to any who “transplanted themselves to Athens with -their whole family for the sake of exercising some manual trade<a id='r72' /><a href='#f72' class='c014'><sup>[72]</sup></a>.” -Aeschines quotes Solon, laws attributed to whom were still in force -when the orator flourished, to the effect that “he does not drive -a man from the platform” (<i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">i.e.</span></i> he allows him to speak in the -assembly of citizens) “even if he is practising some handicraft, but -<span class='pageno' id='Page_14'>14</span>welcomes that class most of all<a id='r73' /><a href='#f73' class='c014'><sup>[73]</sup></a>.” Solon himself, describing the -various paths by which men pursue riches, declares that</p> - -<p class='c015'>Another learns the works of Athena and Hephaestus of the many crafts, -and with his hands gathers a livelihood<a id='r74' /><a href='#f74' class='c014'><sup>[74]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The tyrants themselves are repeatedly found making it part of -their policy to keep their subjects employed on big industrial concerns. -In more than one case we shall see their power collapsing -just when this policy becomes financially impossible<a id='r75' /><a href='#f75' class='c014'><sup>[75]</sup></a>. This part of -the tyrants’ policy is noticed by Aristotle, who quotes the dedications -(buildings and works of art) of the Cypselids at Corinth, the building -of the temple of Olympian Zeus at Athens by the Peisistratids, and -the works of Polycrates round Samos<a id='r76' /><a href='#f76' class='c014'><sup>[76]</sup></a>. To these names we may -add Theagenes of Megara, Phalaris of Agrigentum, Aristodemus -of Cumae, and the Tarquins of Rome, all of whom are associated -with works of this kind<a id='r77' /><a href='#f77' class='c014'><sup>[77]</sup></a>. Aristotle says that the object of these -works was to keep the people busy and poor. This explanation is -more than doubtful, as has been already recognized<a id='r78' /><a href='#f78' class='c014'><sup>[78]</sup></a>. It is not -employment that leads to poverty. More probably the tyrants pursued -this industrial policy because, to quote an expression used in another -context by Plutarch, “stimulating every craft and busying every -hand it made practically the whole city wage earners (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἔμμισθον</span>),” -employed, as in the case Plutarch is describing, by the government -of the state. In other words may not the tyrants have been building -up an industrial state of employee subjects who in their turn involved -an army of “customer subjects<a id='r79' /><a href='#f79' class='c014'><sup>[79]</sup></a>”? The words just quoted come -from the life of Pericles<a id='r80' /><a href='#f80' class='c014'><sup>[80]</sup></a> and refer to the way that he employed -the poorer citizens (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τὸν θητικὸν ὄχλον</span>) in the rebuilding and -adornment of Athens. Among the people so employed he mentions -carpenters, sculptors, coppersmiths, stone masons, dyers, moulders -of gold and ivory, painters, embroiderers, engravers, merchants, -sailors, wheelwrights, waggoners, drivers, rope-makers, flax workers, -leather cutters, road-makers, miners. We still possess fragments of -the accounts of payments made to these workmen or their successors -some years after Pericles’ death<a id='r81' /><a href='#f81' class='c014'><sup>[81]</sup></a>. The Alcmaeonids, the family to -<span class='pageno' id='Page_15'>15</span>which Pericles belonged, had been opponents of the house of Peisistratus -for ages, and had consistently fought it with its own weapons. -Pericles himself was commonly called the new Peisistratus<a id='r82' /><a href='#f82' class='c014'><sup>[82]</sup></a>. His -public works were a continuation of those of Peisistratus<a id='r83' /><a href='#f83' class='c014'><sup>[83]</sup></a>. The -whole situation as well as our scanty information about industrial -conditions in the age of the tyrants alike suggest that in this use -of public works to convert the industrial classes into an army of -his own employees, which is what they very nearly were<a id='r84' /><a href='#f84' class='c014'><sup>[84]</sup></a>, Pericles -was in a very particular sense a new Peisistratus.</p> - -<p class='c007'>To judge too from the purely industrial evidence Pericles seems -to have been continuing the traditions of an earlier age. It is true -that free labour was largely employed on the restoration of the great -sanctuary at Eleusis some eighty years after the operations just -referred to. An inscription relating to the wages paid during this -later undertaking shows that the employees included 36 citizens, -39 resident aliens, 12 strangers, 2 slaves, besides 57 persons of uncertain -status<a id='r85' /><a href='#f85' class='c014'><sup>[85]</sup></a>. But this evidence only tends to show that building -was always a free man’s trade<a id='r86' /><a href='#f86' class='c014'><sup>[86]</sup></a>. We must beware of arguing from -one trade to another or from one particular trade to trade in general. -There were doubtless many subtle shades of status depending on -the nature of either the work or the profits<a id='r87' /><a href='#f87' class='c014'><sup>[87]</sup></a>. As servile industry -develops, it drives free labour from work thought to be particularly -damaging to body or mind such as employment underground in -mines. Speaking generally, however, there are signs that in Athens -at least between the days of the tyranny and those of the Periclean -democracy the conditions of free labour had been radically changed. -This is most obvious as regards the status of the citizen artizan<a id='r88' /><a href='#f88' class='c014'><sup>[88]</sup></a>. -<span class='pageno' id='Page_16'>16</span>Solon refers to him without a trace of contempt and is careful to -maintain his political dignity. In so doing he appears to have been -conservative and simply following the tradition of the Homeric age, -when a prince was proud to make his own bedstead or build his -own house and a princess took pleasure in acting as palace laundress<a id='r89' /><a href='#f89' class='c014'><sup>[89]</sup></a>. -In Attica at any rate manual labour appears to have enjoyed an -equally honourable reputation from the heroic age onwards till the -end of the age of the tyrants<a id='r90' /><a href='#f90' class='c014'><sup>[90]</sup></a>. In the good old days, so Plato -declares in the <cite><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">Critias</span></cite><a id='r91' /><a href='#f91' class='c014'><sup>[91]</sup></a>, “the other classes of citizens were engaged -in handicrafts (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">δημιουργίαι</span>) and agriculture.” The earliest division -of the free population, ascribed to the half historical Theseus, comprised -three classes—nobles, farmers, and artizans (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">δημιουργοί</span>)<a id='r92' /><a href='#f92' class='c014'><sup>[92]</sup></a>. -When Solon, who was himself a merchant<a id='r93' /><a href='#f93' class='c014'><sup>[93]</sup></a>, reorganized the population -he divided it (or perhaps simply preserved an existent division) -into four classes, of which the lowest were <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">θῆτες</span> or day labourers<a id='r94' /><a href='#f94' class='c014'><sup>[94]</sup></a>. -The names of the others (pentekosiomedimnoi, hippeis, zeugitai) -show that this class must have included all the artizans, the men -who, in the lawgiver’s own words, “learn the works of Athena and -Hephaestus of the many crafts.” This description of the ancient -Athenian craftsmen as sons of Pallas and Hephaestus recurs in -Plato<a id='r95' /><a href='#f95' class='c014'><sup>[95]</sup></a>. A class that is described in this way plainly rests under no -stigma. As Wallon puts it, “le travail, loin d’être un titre d’exclusion, -était un moyen d’arriver au pouvoir<a id='r96' /><a href='#f96' class='c014'><sup>[96]</sup></a>.” Some five years after -Solon’s legislation the old classification of the free population as -nobles, farmers and artizans (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">δημιουργοί</span>) reappears and the artizans -secure two out of ten seats on the board of chief magistrates<a id='r97' /><a href='#f97' class='c014'><sup>[97]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_17'>17</span>But in the fifth century this has changed. Contrast the tone of -Solon with that of Xenophon<a id='r98' /><a href='#f98' class='c014'><sup>[98]</sup></a>, who states that some citizens -“actually” live by handicrafts, and that mechanical occupations are -rightly held in contempt by civilized communities. When Socrates -has demonstrated to Alcibiades that the Athenian ecclesia is made -up of working men (cobblers, criers, tent-makers and the like), he -proceeds to this inference: “if you have a contempt for them individually, -then you must have a contempt for them as a body<a id='r99' /><a href='#f99' class='c014'><sup>[99]</sup></a>.” -This contempt for manual work appears in Aristophanes, as for -instance in his constant contemptuous references to Euripides’ -mother, who had been a greengrocer<a id='r100' /><a href='#f100' class='c014'><sup>[100]</sup></a>. It is recognized and discussed -by Herodotus, who regards it as of comparatively recent -growth: as he puts it, “most of the Greeks have learned to despise -artizans<a id='r101' /><a href='#f101' class='c014'><sup>[101]</sup></a>.” His view is supported by Isocrates, who when describing -the state of things that prevailed in the Athens of Solon and Cleisthenes, -declares that “the propertied classes, so far from despising -those who were not so well off, ... relieved their necessities, giving -some of them farms at moderate rents, sending out others to travel -as merchants, supplying others with capital for their various employments -(<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐργασίας</span>)<a id='r102' /><a href='#f102' class='c014'><sup>[102]</sup></a>.” The passage just quoted is no doubt tendencious. -But, as maintained by Mauri<a id='r103' /><a href='#f103' class='c014'><sup>[103]</sup></a>, it does indicate that labour -was not despised in archaic Athens. More than that it suggests -that in the days of Solon and Cleisthenes there was a good deal -of free labour under the patronage, if not in the actual employment, -of rich individuals. The transformation that began in the fifth -century seems to have occurred gradually. It had not been completed -when Herodotus wrote. Among the Athenian citizens who -just at that time were being employed by Pericles on the Athenian -acropolis we have seen from Plutarch that there were included -carpenters, smiths, and leather workers. In the next generation -we find Xenophon declaring that most of those who understand -these crafts are servile. The words are put into the mouth of Socrates, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_18'>18</span>who was the younger contemporary of Herodotus by some fifteen -years<a id='r104' /><a href='#f104' class='c014'><sup>[104]</sup></a>. Socrates and Xenophon however sometimes voice the earlier -view. In the <cite>Apology</cite> for instance artizans are compared favourably -with politicians, poets, and the like<a id='r105' /><a href='#f105' class='c014'><sup>[105]</sup></a>. Similarly in the <cite><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">de Vectigalibus</span></cite> -of Xenophon, in which the writer expresses some of his own personal -views, artizans are placed with no suggestion of inferiority in the -company of sophists, philosophers, poets, and sight-seers<a id='r106' /><a href='#f106' class='c014'><sup>[106]</sup></a>. In Plato, -except for the passage just quoted from the <cite>Apology</cite>, manual labour -is consistently condemned as unworthy of a free man in a free -city<a id='r107' /><a href='#f107' class='c014'><sup>[107]</sup></a>. He would have no member of a state or even the slave of a -citizen among those engaged in manual trades<a id='r108' /><a href='#f108' class='c014'><sup>[108]</sup></a>. He admits that -there is nothing inherently ignoble in trade, but explains at length -how all trading has in fact become so<a id='r109' /><a href='#f109' class='c014'><sup>[109]</sup></a>. Trade has come to imply -money-making and to mean that the city where it flourishes is -“infected with money of silver and gold, than which, speaking -generally, no greater evil could arise for a city that aimed at producing -just and noble characters<a id='r110' /><a href='#f110' class='c014'><sup>[110]</sup></a>.” When Plato is building up his -ideal state wage earning is left to those citizens who are mentally -deficient<a id='r111' /><a href='#f111' class='c014'><sup>[111]</sup></a>. Plato is above all things an independent thinker with -no great respect for the masses and less still for popular opinion. -But in this particular point his views do not seem to be unusual. He -is echoed again and again by Aristotle: “Citizens ought not to live -the life of an artizan or tradesman<a id='r112' /><a href='#f112' class='c014'><sup>[112]</sup></a>.” “Farmers and artizans and -all the working-class element must exist in cities: but the real -constituents of the city are the military class and the parliamentarians<a id='r113' /><a href='#f113' class='c014'><sup>[113]</sup></a>.” -“The best city will not make the artizan a citizen<a id='r114' /><a href='#f114' class='c014'><sup>[114]</sup></a>.” -“The city where the artizans are numerous and men at arms are -<span class='pageno' id='Page_19'>19</span>few cannot attain to greatness<a id='r115' /><a href='#f115' class='c014'><sup>[115]</sup></a>.” The speech of Demosthenes against -Euboulides makes it plain that in the fourth century a doubtful -claim to Athenian citizenship might be damaged by pointing out -that the claimant was a small tradesman. “It is your duty,” the -orator makes his client say to the jury, “to uphold the laws and -not to regard as outlanders people who work for their living (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τοὺς -ἐργαζομένους</span>)<a id='r116' /><a href='#f116' class='c014'><sup>[116]</sup></a>.” Aristotle and Euboulides would have agreed -with Pollux<a id='r117' /><a href='#f117' class='c014'><sup>[117]</sup></a>, our earliest lexicographer (second century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">A.D.</span></span>), that -thetes is a name for free men who out of poverty do slave’s work -for money (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐπ’ ἀργυρίῳ δουλευόντων</span>).</p> - -<p class='c007'>The Greeks despised the artizan largely because of his lack of -leisure and impaired physique which to their minds necessarily -implied a lack of culture and a weakened intelligence<a id='r118' /><a href='#f118' class='c014'><sup>[118]</sup></a>. This being -the ground of their contempt, the feeling must plainly have grown -up when the claims of culture and of industry had become exacting. -This means that it was probably subsequent to and a result of the -industrial developments of the age of the tyrants; and this dating -is confirmed by other considerations.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The growth of contempt for labour has been explained by -Drumann<a id='r119' /><a href='#f119' class='c014'><sup>[119]</sup></a> as due in part at least to the Persian wars and the resultant -plunder, which must have made a good many citizens financially -independent. The payment of the huge panels of jurymen, -which at Athens did so much to release the poorer citizens from -the necessity to work, was an ultimate outcome of the Persian -wars. The Peloponnesian war may have completed the process. It -lasted through nearly thirty campaigns (431–404 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>) and must -have deeply disorganized the labour market. Slaves must in all -<span class='pageno' id='Page_20'>20</span>directions have supplanted the free men who were wanted for -military service, just as women took men’s places in the modern -counterpart of the Greek disaster<a id='r120' /><a href='#f120' class='c014'><sup>[120]</sup></a>. The continued campaigning is -sure to have left many of the fighting men with a distaste for the -dull routine of industry<a id='r121' /><a href='#f121' class='c014'><sup>[121]</sup></a>. In the <cite>Plutus</cite> of Aristophanes, brought -out in 388 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>, Poverty argues against an even distribution of -wealth on the ground that it would destroy the slave trade and -drive free men to manual labour as smiths, shipbuilders, tailors, -wheelwrights, shoemakers, brickmakers, laundrymen, tanners and -ploughmen<a id='r122' /><a href='#f122' class='c014'><sup>[122]</sup></a>. Rather than return to their trades they preferred active -service in distant lands. When early in the fourth century Agesilaus -of Sparta was campaigning in Asia Minor against the King of -Persia we are told that most of his troops except his own Spartans -were potters, smiths, carpenters and the like<a id='r123' /><a href='#f123' class='c014'><sup>[123]</sup></a>. Mechanical occupations -are said by Aristotle to have been in his own days in some -Greek cities mainly in the hands of slaves and outlanders: “in -ancient times in some cities the artizan element (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τὸ βάναυσον</span>) was -servile or alien, for which reason most of them are such now<a id='r124' /><a href='#f124' class='c014'><sup>[124]</sup></a>.” -This growing contempt and dislike for manual labour as such, combined -with the passion for freedom and independence, would make -free citizens particularly unwilling to become factory hands or -miners or anything that meant working under a master for a daily -wage, the receipt of which tended to be regarded as a degradation<a id='r125' /><a href='#f125' class='c014'><sup>[125]</sup></a>. -Ciccotti<a id='r126' /><a href='#f126' class='c014'><sup>[126]</sup></a> observes that piece work becomes much commoner at this -<span class='pageno' id='Page_21'>21</span>period. He explains the tendency in abstract Marxian principles. -The change may be due to much more human causes, such as the -workman’s growing desire to work his own hours at his own pace. -The work that the free man refused to do was undertaken by the -growing population of slaves. There was at this time a glut in the -slave market, as is sufficiently proved by the single fact that while -the prices of all other commodities went up in the fifth and fourth -centuries, that of slaves went down<a id='r127' /><a href='#f127' class='c014'><sup>[127]</sup></a>. Among the unpleasant occupations -that fell more and more completely into servile hands were -mining and quarrying<a id='r128' /><a href='#f128' class='c014'><sup>[128]</sup></a>, two of the occupations with which we shall -find that the early tyrants were most frequently concerned.</p> - -<p class='c007'>If therefore in the fifth and fourth centuries citizen craftsmen -appear to have worked mainly in small individual concerns<a id='r129' /><a href='#f129' class='c014'><sup>[129]</sup></a>, it by -no means follows that the same was the case in the seventh and -sixth centuries. The conditions during the later period were due -to causes that only began to operate during that period. On the -other hand industry must have begun to organize itself into considerable -concerns somewhere about the beginning of the earlier -period, at the time of the developments that are admittedly associated -with the beginnings of tyranny. What was the status of the employees -in these earlier enterprises such as the potteries of Corinth, the sixth -century mines at Laurium, or the metal and woollen works at -Samos? Almost our only piece of direct evidence on this subject -is a statement of Alexis<a id='r130' /><a href='#f130' class='c014'><sup>[130]</sup></a> that Polycrates the tyrant of Samos, whose -connexion with Samian industry is established in Chapter III, “used -to send for skilled artizans at very high wages (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">μετεστέλλετο -τεχνίτας ἐπὶ μισθοῖς μεγίστοις</span>).” These highly paid artizans -may have been foreigners—Athenians, Milesians, or the like<a id='r131' /><a href='#f131' class='c014'><sup>[131]</sup></a>—but -they can scarcely have been slaves. Indirect evidence in the same -direction is more abundant. Periander for example, the second -tyrant of Corinth (about 620–580 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>), is said to have forbidden -the purchase of slaves<a id='r132' /><a href='#f132' class='c014'><sup>[132]</sup></a>. This regulation looks like an attempt towards -<span class='pageno' id='Page_22'>22</span>the end of the period of tyranny at Corinth to stem an influx of -servile labour.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It is doubtful whether slave owning on a large scale existed at -this period<a id='r133' /><a href='#f133' class='c014'><sup>[133]</sup></a>. The Greeks of the fifth and fourth centuries regarded -slavery as they knew it as a modern development<a id='r134' /><a href='#f134' class='c014'><sup>[134]</sup></a>. Timaeus says<a id='r135' /><a href='#f135' class='c014'><sup>[135]</sup></a> -that till recently the Locrians had a law and likewise the Phocians -against possessing either maid servants or slaves (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">οὔτε θεραπαίνας -οὔτε οἰκέτας</span>) and that Mnason the friend of Aristotle having -acquired a thousand slaves was ill-spoken of (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">διαβληθῆναι</span>) among -the Phocians as having deprived that number of the citizens of their -daily bread. There is much therefore to be said for the view expressed -by Clerc<a id='r136' /><a href='#f136' class='c014'><sup>[136]</sup></a> that free labour flourished afresh in the seventh -and sixth centuries <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> with the overthrow of aristocracies, or in -other words in the age of the early tyrants. Ciccotti has recently -well observed that in all the literature from the hymn of Demeter -to the writings of Plutarch slaves occupy no place in the picture -of social conditions at this period<a id='r137' /><a href='#f137' class='c014'><sup>[137]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It was long ago recognized by Buechsenschuetz<a id='r138' /><a href='#f138' class='c014'><sup>[138]</sup></a> that in preclassical -Greece the manual trades were in the hands of free men, but each -man was his own master, there being no factories or division of -labour. In classical times there was considerable division of labour -and there were businesses employing a large number of hands, but -citizens seldom worked in them. The age of the tyrants falls between -the two epochs just formulated. It is the one short epoch in Greek -history when there were probably considerable industrial enterprises -employing citizen labour. Thus it is the age in Greek history when -apart from all details of evidence there would be the greatest <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">a priori</span></i> -possibility of an individual having secured the political power which -may fall to the employer of organized free labour on a large scale<a id='r139' /><a href='#f139' class='c014'><sup>[139]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It is difficult in these days to realize how unique a situation is here -<span class='pageno' id='Page_23'>23</span>implied. We are apt to forget how completely slaves were excluded -from any part whatsoever in the life of the state. Politically they -were non-existent, and the whole free population was vitally concerned -in keeping them so. The slave was an essential form of -property. To question the institution of slavery in ancient Greece -was like questioning the fundamental claims of property in modern -Europe. It was a proclamation of war to the knife against the -whole established order of things. Individual slaves might win freedom -and political rights, but any organized effort at emancipation -on the part of the slaves themselves was put down with merciless -severity. When in 71 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> Pompey and Crassus had crushed the -slave rebellion of Spartacus, the moderate and statesmanlike revolutionary -whose name has come again to such prominence in recent -days, six thousand of his followers were crucified along the road -from Rome to Naples. The distance is about 150 miles. At the -time therefore of this exemplary punishment if anyone had occasion -to pass along the road in question, one of the most frequented in -the whole Roman state, he would see some forty of these victims -writhing in agony or hanging dead upon the cross for every mile -of his journey. No piece of frightfulness quite so thorough and -methodical is to be found in all the frightful history of the present -century. The punishment of 71 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> is typical of the whole attitude -of the ancient republics of Greece and Rome towards rebellious -slaves. No wonder then if in their history servile labour played -no active part<a id='r140' /><a href='#f140' class='c014'><sup>[140]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>e</em>) the history of the states where there was never a tyrant,</div> - -<p class='c007'>Some parts of Greece never passed under a tyrant. The most -conspicuous of these is Sparta<a id='r141' /><a href='#f141' class='c014'><sup>[141]</sup></a>. The Spartans never -struck real coins. The iron pieces “heavy and hard -to carry<a id='r142' /><a href='#f142' class='c014'><sup>[142]</sup></a>” that formed the classical Spartan currency -seem to be a survival of a premonetary medium of -<span class='pageno' id='Page_24'>24</span>exchange<a id='r143' /><a href='#f143' class='c014'><sup>[143]</sup></a>. Sparta was also practically without any urban population<a id='r144' /><a href='#f144' class='c014'><sup>[144]</sup></a>. -It may be more than an accidental coincidence that the most -anti-tyrannical state in Greece was without a real coinage, and -backward in trade and industry.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Another region where nothing is heard of early tyrants is Thessaly. -Thessaly had a large serf population called <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">πενέσται</span>, whose position -much resembled that of the Spartan helots<a id='r145' /><a href='#f145' class='c014'><sup>[145]</sup></a>. Both were mainly -agricultural labourers, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">asscripti glebae</span></i>. Such a population might -serve the purpose of a would-be military despot.

What Athens and Sparta both disapproved -of had little chance of finding a home in fifth century -Greece. It was during this period that Herodotus -and Thucydides, our earliest Greek historians, composed their -works. Each wrote the history of a great war.

Cornford in his illuminating study of Thucydides<a id='r150' /><a href='#f150' class='c014'><sup>[150]</sup></a> complains -of the general blindness of the Greeks in this direction. This -is hardly fair on the Greeks. Thucydides and his successors are not -unusually blind. It is the moderns who are unusual in the way -they fix their eyes upon this particular aspect of history.

But this attitude is unusual. The financial revolution -associated with the realms of Gyges and Pheidon had been accepted -by the whole Greek world before the outbreak of the Persian wars. -For writers of the new epoch that began with Salamis and Plataea -economic conditions must have appeared a changeless and somewhat -boring factor. If the early tyrants had previously been kings of -finance or industry, we must not expect many statements or illustrations -of the fact in the <cite>Persian Wars</cite> of Herodotus, or the <cite>Peloponnesian -War</cite> of Thucydides. It should satisfy us if, as is the case, -their allusions to the tyranny are all in complete harmony with -that hypothesis.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The view is at variance with statements of Plato, Aristotle, and subsequent writers:</div> - -<p class='c007'>The writers of the fourth century offer a more serious difficulty. -Both Plato and Aristotle deal at some length with -the origin of tyranny, and both give explanations -quite different from the one that is here offered. As -their accounts have been the basis of all subsequent -views, it is necessary to state briefly what they are.</p> - -<p class='c007'>According to Plato<a id='r151' /><a href='#f151' class='c014'><sup>[151]</sup></a> “it is fairly plain that tyranny -develops out of democracy.”</p> - -<p class='c015'>When a tyrant comes into being, the root he springs from is the people’s -champion, and no other....

In ancient -times Aristotle includes the fifth century (and perhaps the beginning -of the fourth), as is shown by his quoting Dionysius of Syracuse<a id='r155' /><a href='#f155' class='c014'><sup>[155]</sup></a>. -Plato’s treatment is less historical, but as he specifically excludes the -possibility of any other sort of tyrant pedigree than that he gives, -his account is plainly meant to hold good for all periods<a id='r156' /><a href='#f156' class='c014'><sup>[156]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>but their picture of the rise of tyranny clashes with known facts about the period,</div> - -<p class='c007'>In short both Plato and Aristotle regard their accounts of the -tyrant’s origin as being of general application. As -such they have always been accepted, and not at first -sight without reason. The Platonic-Aristotelian pedigree -(with an alternative) is already ascribed to the -tyrant by Herodotus: “under a democracy it is impossible -for corruption not to prevail ..., until some -individual, championing the people (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">προστὰς τοῦ δήμου</span>) blossoms -out into a monarch (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ρεϡτε μούναρχος</span> = tyrant)<a id='r157' /><a href='#f157' class='c014'><sup>[157]</sup></a>.” But what are the -<span class='pageno' id='Page_28'>28</span>facts? The process just described makes the early tyrant develop -out of a demagogue who is usually also a general. Demagogues -may have existed in Greece before tyrannies began to be established; -but the evidence for their having done so is extraordinarily meagre<a id='r158' /><a href='#f158' class='c014'><sup>[158]</sup></a>, -and it is highly doubtful whether Aristotle adds to it.

Those -of his own day secured their influence by confiscations effected -through the popular courts<a id='r159' /><a href='#f159' class='c014'><sup>[159]</sup></a>. They are essentially the product of a -full-blown democracy, and pretyrannical democracies are extremely -doubtful. Athens is a special and only partial case, and even there, -in spite of Solon, Herodotus<a id='r160' /><a href='#f160' class='c014'><sup>[160]</sup></a> can speak of Cleisthenes, who overthrew -the tyranny, as “the man who established the democracy.” -The demagogues from whom Aristotle derives his early tyrants are -mainly military demagogues: “the tyrant,” he says, “is also prone -to make war<a id='r161' /><a href='#f161' class='c014'><sup>[161]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>This statement is hardly borne out by the facts. As a body, in -spite of the times they lived in, the early tyrants were remarkable -for their works not of war but of peace<a id='r162' /><a href='#f162' class='c014'><sup>[162]</sup></a>. Some of them indeed, as -for instance Orthagoras and Peisistratus, are reported to have distinguished -themselves as soldiers before they became tyrants. The -warlike exploits of the youthful Orthagoras are discussed below<a id='r163' /><a href='#f163' class='c014'><sup>[163]</sup></a>. -He cannot have been really prone to militarism, since Aristotle -declares that a successor of his altered the character of the Sicyonian -tyranny by becoming warlike<a id='r164' /><a href='#f164' class='c014'><sup>[164]</sup></a>. Peisistratus’ early feats of war are -<span class='pageno' id='Page_29'>29</span>well attested. Naturally enough he made political capital out of -them. “He asked of the people that he should receive from them -a bodyguard, having previously distinguished himself in the expedition -against Megara, when he captured Nisaea and performed other -great deeds<a id='r165' /><a href='#f165' class='c014'><sup>[165]</sup></a>.” But earlier in the same chapter Herodotus has made -it perfectly plain that Peisistratus was not a military despot. “Having -formed designs on the tyranny he raised a third faction, and having -collected partizans, and posing as a champion of the Hillmen, he -devised as follows.” It was the faction of the Hillmen and not<a id='r166' /><a href='#f166' class='c014'><sup>[166]</sup></a> the -Megarean expedition, that was the stepping-stone to the tyranny. -Who the Hillmen were is discussed in the chapter on Athens. It -has never been suggested that they were military<a id='r167' /><a href='#f167' class='c014'><sup>[167]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>A military demagogue who makes himself tyrant is essentially -the product of an advanced democracy threatened by invasion from -without. When the tyrants of the seventh and sixth centuries secured -their positions there was no foreign invader without the gates and -no democracy within. Aristotle<a id='r168' /><a href='#f168' class='c014'><sup>[168]</sup></a> calls democracy “the last word -in tyranny” (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἡ τελευταία τυραννίς</span>). From the point of view -of historical development the converse comes much nearer to the -truth, and tyranny is the first word in democracy. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>and is due to false generalizations from the conditions of their own days,<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -The evolution -of the tyrant as described in Aristotle and Plato cannot -have taken place until after the reforms of Cleisthenes -or precisely the period when the last of the -early tyrants was finally banished from Greece. The -two philosophers, and likewise Herodotus in the passage just quoted<a id='r169' /><a href='#f169' class='c014'><sup>[169]</sup></a>, -must be reading into more ancient times a state of things that -only became prevalent shortly before their own<a id='r170' /><a href='#f170' class='c014'><sup>[170]</sup></a>. The words of -Herodotus are put into the mouth of Darius. This means that they -<span class='pageno' id='Page_30'>30</span>really hang loose and may be influenced by the careers of contemporary -demagogues like Cleon.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>and particularly from the career of Dionysius of Syracuse.</div> - -<p class='c007'>But the main source of error lies in Plato and Aristotle, and is -still more obvious. The most distinguished figure in -the political history of the early part of the fourth -century was Dionysius of Syracuse. Dionysius is, like -Plato’s tyrant in the <cite>Republic</cite>, the product of democracy: -like Aristotle’s in the <cite>Politics</cite> he begins his career as a military -demagogue. The resemblances are not accidental. Dionysius made -himself tyrant when Plato was just reaching manhood. Plato visited -his court and few political experiments have become more famous -than Plato’s attempt to turn the tyrant’s son into the ideal philosopher -king<a id='r171' /><a href='#f171' class='c014'><sup>[171]</sup></a>. Aristotle naturally shared his master’s interest in the famous -Syracusan. His <cite>Politics</cite> bears frequent witness to the fact. It contains -only eight references each to the tyrant houses of Corinth and -Athens as against twenty to those of Syracuse (eleven to the Dionysii -and Dion, nine to the Deinomenidae). Of the three individuals, -Theagenes, Peisistratus, Dionysius, chosen to illustrate the way a -tyrant may be produced out of a military demagogue, Dionysius is -the only one whose career the process fits.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Other philosophers of the period wrote under the same dominant -influence, notably Aeschines the Socratic, and Aristippus, both -of whom had stayed with the tyrant<a id='r172' /><a href='#f172' class='c014'><sup>[172]</sup></a>. Similarly with the fourth -century historians: their notion of a tyrant was Dionysius -as described by that potentate’s own historian, his fellow-citizen -Philistus.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Everything tended to confirm this view. The greatness of Dionysius -naturally drew attention to that of Gelo and Hiero, his predecessors -at Syracuse. Gelo and Hiero were, like Dionysius, military -despots. To later generations they were the great soldiers who had -saved Sicily from the Carthaginians and Etruscans. Their contemporary -Pausanias had tried to raise himself from generalissimo of the -Greek army to tyrant of all Greece<a id='r173' /><a href='#f173' class='c014'><sup>[173]</sup></a>. These events were still in -<span class='pageno' id='Page_31'>31</span>men’s minds. Of the earlier tyrants they had only hazy notions<a id='r174' /><a href='#f174' class='c014'><sup>[174]</sup></a>. -The best remembered were probably the Peisistratids, both from -their late date and from the fact that they were Athenians. Peisistratus, -as has been already noticed, chanced early in his career to -have distinguished himself as a soldier. It so happened that Polycrates, -the other great tyrant of the latter half of the sixth century, -also engaged in war. It was forced upon him by the Persians. -The evidence is all against the view that it was the basis of his -power. But the warlike achievements of these two rulers, the last -and perhaps the greatest of the earlier tyrants, lent colour to -Aristotle’s hasty generalizations<a id='r175' /><a href='#f175' class='c014'><sup>[175]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Aristotle himself, speaking of the ways of maintaining a tyranny, -says that “the traditional method, in accordance with which most -tyrants conduct their government, is said to have been mainly instituted -by Periander of Corinth<a id='r176' /><a href='#f176' class='c014'><sup>[176]</sup></a>?” Only a few pages later in the -same work<a id='r177' /><a href='#f177' class='c014'><sup>[177]</sup></a> we are told that Periander abandoned the policy of his -father Cypselus and that he did so by becoming warlike or in other -words by approximating more to Dionysius of Syracuse. Once more -then the typical tyrant of Aristotle is a ruler who departs from the -policy of a typical founder of an early tyranny.</p> - -<p class='c007'>For an example of the victory of the Aristotelian view over the -truth we may compare Herodotus, <span class='fss'>I.</span> 59, which states that Peisistratus, -who had fought against Megara, made himself tyrant by means of -the faction of the Hillmen, with Justin, <span class='fss'>II.</span> 8, according to whom -“Peisistratus, as though he had conquered (the Megareans) for himself, -not for his country, seized by craft the tyranny.” Justin is a -perversion of a passage in Chapter 14 of the Aristotelian <cite>Constitution -of Athens</cite>, which states that Peisistratus, “having the reputation -of being a great friend of the people, and having greatly distinguished -himself in the war against Megara,” secured his bodyguard and the -tyranny. Aristotle misinterprets the Hillmen and exaggerates the -importance of the Megarean expedition. Justin omits the former -<span class='pageno' id='Page_32'>32</span>altogether and makes the latter the sole cause of Peisistratus obtaining -the tyranny.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Aristotle’s conception of the tyrant class as drawn mainly from -that of the military demagogue was taken over by the Romans. In -the chapter on Rome it will be shown how little this conception -fits in with the Romans’ own early history. But the times before -the great wars at Rome (Samnite, Pyrrhic, Punic) are like those -before the Persian wars in Greece. They belong to a different epoch -from those that follow. The later history of the Roman republic -harmonizes with Aristotle’s view. The Gracchi may be represented -as demagogues who failed to make themselves supreme for lack of -military power<a id='r178' /><a href='#f178' class='c014'><sup>[178]</sup></a>. Marius, Pompey, and Caesar succeeded in proportion -as they realized the Aristotelian combination. The fourth -century conception was therefore unchallenged by Roman writers, -the more so since Dionysius appears for a while to have dominated -the Roman conception of a Greek tyrant<a id='r179' /><a href='#f179' class='c014'><sup>[179]</sup></a>. Fortunately however, -owing to the careless way the Roman historians worked over their -material, they have left us glimpses of the different conditions that -had once existed.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The view that was thus disseminated in classical Greece and -Rome was naturally accepted by the scholars of the renaissance and -has prevailed ever since.</p> - -<div class='chapter'> - <span class='pageno' id='Page_33'>33</span> - <h2 class='c005'>Chapter II. <em>Athens</em></h2> -</div> - -<div class='c003'></div> -<div class='sidenote'>Exceptional position of Athens.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Of all the tyrants of the seventh and sixth centuries none are -so well known to us as those who reigned at Athens. -No other city has left us so clear a picture of the -state of things not only during the tyranny but also -immediately before and after it. Solon lived to see Peisistratus make -himself supreme. Herodotus, born a Persian subject about 484 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>, -must have had opportunities of questioning first-hand authorities -on the later years of the Athenian tyranny, while his younger contemporary -Thucydides was in a particularly favoured position for -getting information on this subject through his relationship with -the Philaidae, of whose rivalry with the Peisistratidae there will be -occasion to speak later in this chapter<a id='r180' /><a href='#f180' class='c014'><sup>[180]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>This comparative abundance of information is the reason why -Athens has been made the starting-point of this enquiry. But even -so our knowledge is meagre enough. And there is a special reason -for using it with caution. So far in the history of the world there -has been only one Athens. The developments that took place in the -city during the first two centuries of the democracy are without -parallel. Can we be certain that Athens was not already unique -in the period immediately preceding? One point in which the -Athenian tyranny was exceptional meets us at the -first glance. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>Athens before the establishment of the tyranny.<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -With the single exception of Samos, all -the other famous tyrannies of the earlier type, at least -in the Aegean area, arose in the seventh century. But -apart from this fact it will be found that the tyranny at Athens in -the sixth century followed the same course as it appears to have -done at places like Corinth and Argos, Sardis and Miletus in the -seventh. The more highly developed an organism is, the longer it -<span class='pageno' id='Page_34'>34</span>takes to reach maturity. This is perhaps the reason why Athens in -the sixth century appears in some respects to be a hundred years -behind some of the cities whom she was destined so completely to -eclipse.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Athens was not exclusively commercial. Her large territory made -her partly agricultural. To this fact may be due her failure to compete -commercially in the seventh century with cities like Aegina -and Corinth<a id='r181' /><a href='#f181' class='c014'><sup>[181]</sup></a>. Hence too the late rise of the tyranny. It appears -only when the commercial and industrial element had got the upper -hand. There was indeed the attempt of Cylon, who conspired to -make himself tyrant within a generation of the first appearance of -tyranny on the mainland of Greece<a id='r182' /><a href='#f182' class='c014'><sup>[182]</sup></a>. But Cylon failed because, -though wealthy (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ὀλυμπιονίκης</span>) and influential (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">δυνατός</span>), he -could not possibly, in the Athens of his day, be the leader of any -dominant organized commercial activity. He was merely an ambitious -member of the aristocracy (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τῶν πάλαι εὐγενής</span>), connected -with the great band of merchant princes only by marriage<a id='r183' /><a href='#f183' class='c014'><sup>[183]</sup></a>. The -attempt and its result are both what might have been expected from -the position of Athens at the time.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Soon after Cylon’s attempt Athens began to rival Corinth in the -pottery trade, and the influence of the rich city merchants and -exporters doubtless increased. But even in pottery the great vogue -of Attic ware was still to come, and Solon’s measures for encouraging -the growth of olives and the export of olive oil also belong -to this period<a id='r184' /><a href='#f184' class='c014'><sup>[184]</sup></a>: the importance of the landed aristocracy who owned -the olive yards must have increased almost equally. No merchant -therefore attempted by means of the wealth that he had amassed or -the labour that he employed to seize the tyranny. The landed -aristocracy were also wealthy and they too employed much labour, -and it so happened that the best part of the Attic plain, where -lay their estates, was situated round the city, as Cylon discovered -to his cost when he seized the Acropolis. Tyranny was almost -impossible.</p> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_35'>35</span>The leading man at Athens was not a mere millionaire, as in the -more exclusively trading states. Solon had indeed some experience -of trade<a id='r185' /><a href='#f185' class='c014'><sup>[185]</sup></a>, but he was essentially a politician with a gift for finance, -not a financier or merchant with political ambitions. He became -not a tyrant but a lawgiver.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Peisistratus makes himself tyrant by organizing a new party.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Solon tried to provide for the difficulties that he saw resulting -from the existence of two evenly matched parties, -the landowners of the plain and the traders of the -coast. The tyranny arose from the political organization -of a new interest by Peisistratus, who, to quote -the exact words of Herodotus:</p> - -<p class='c015'>While the coast men of Athens and those of the plain were at strife ... having -formed designs on (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">καταφρονήσας</span>) the tyranny, proceeded to raise (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἤγειρε</span>) -a third faction<a id='r186' /><a href='#f186' class='c014'><sup>[186]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Some ancient writers represent Peisistratus as owing his tyranny -to his gifts as an orator or demagogue<a id='r187' /><a href='#f187' class='c014'><sup>[187]</sup></a>. Reasons are given in -Chapter <span class='fss'>I</span> for not accepting this view, and also for not believing -that it was mainly as a successful soldier that Peisistratus secured -the throne<a id='r188' /><a href='#f188' class='c014'><sup>[188]</sup></a>. It was as founder and leader of the “third faction” -of Herodotus that Peisistratus made himself tyrant, and he seems -largely to have built up his influence with them by rendering them -aid, doubtless financial<a id='r189' /><a href='#f189' class='c014'><sup>[189]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>To understand the position of Peisistratus and to ascertain the -basis of his power it is obviously of the first importance that we -should know who precisely were the men who made up this third -faction. Unfortunately this question cannot be answered directly -<span class='pageno' id='Page_36'>36</span>from the information that has come down to us. So before sifting -the evidence that bears on it, it will be well to examine some later -and better known phases of the tyrant’s career.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>How Peisistratus “rooted” his power.</div> - -<p class='c007'>After the tyrant had first established himself he is reported to -have been twice banished and twice restored. After -his second restoration “he proceeded to root his -tyranny with many mercenaries, and with revenues -of money, of which part was gathered from the home country, part -from the river Strymon<a id='r190' /><a href='#f190' class='c014'><sup>[190]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>The Strymon (Struma) flows through the famous mining district -which was afterwards annexed by Philip of Macedon, and brought -him his enormous wealth. It is scarcely conceivable that Peisistratus’ -revenues from this region came from any other source than the -mines<a id='r191' /><a href='#f191' class='c014'><sup>[191]</sup></a>. Hence Guiraud, in his interesting but sober account of -ancient Greek industry, has already been led to suggest that -Peisistratus’ Attic revenues were derived from a similar source, and -that he worked the mines of Laurium<a id='r192' /><a href='#f192' class='c014'><sup>[192]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>How he secured his second restoration.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Peisistratus was not using revenues from mines for the first time -in his career, when he proceeded to “root his tyranny” -in the manner just described. He had already used -the same means to compass his second restoration. -When driven from Athens for the second time he had -“proceeded to the parts round Pangaion, where he made money, -and having hired soldiers he went back to Eretria, and in the eleventh -year made his first attempt to recover his position by force<a id='r193' /><a href='#f193' class='c014'><sup>[193]</sup></a>.” -Herodotus appears to think that all the period of exile was spent at -Eretria; but he too states it to have been spent in collecting money -(<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἕως ... τὰ χρήματα ἤγειρε</span>). The result was that “he now held -the tyranny securely<a id='r194' /><a href='#f194' class='c014'><sup>[194]</sup></a>.” Mt Pangaion is the name of the great -<span class='pageno' id='Page_37'>37</span>mining district to the East of the lower Strymon. The mention of -it confirms the view that Peisistratus had a personal connexion with -the Thracian mines. Eretria, on the West coast of Euboea, is an -obvious place from which to swoop down on East Attica, but on -the other hand in Euboea too there were mining districts<a id='r195' /><a href='#f195' class='c014'><sup>[195]</sup></a>, and -Eretria had a settlement just to the East of Mount Pangaion, if -Svoronos is right in his very plausible identification of the modern -Kavalla with the “Skabala: a place of the Eretrians” of Stephanus -Byzantinus<a id='r196' /><a href='#f196' class='c014'><sup>[196]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>About the tyrant’s first restoration there is only a story in -Herodotus which the historian himself describes as a “very silly -business.” Its consideration is best left over till we have dealt with -his original seizure of the throne. If for this earlier stage of his -career the evidence is less specific, we must not be surprised. Like -Augustus, Peisistratus was careful, especially at first, to observe the -outward forms of the constitution which he overthrew, so that the -realities of the situation would not be patent to everybody<a id='r197' /><a href='#f197' class='c014'><sup>[197]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The “Hillmen” through whom Peisistratus made himself tyrant</div> - -<p class='c007'>The party through which Peisistratus made himself tyrant is -called by Herodotus the <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Ὑπεράκριοι</span><a id='r198' /><a href='#f198' class='c014'><sup>[198]</sup></a>.

Perhaps -the reason is that all alike are based on some single unessential -detail of the story. None of them interprets it in the light of the -better known parts of the tyrant’s career, and more particularly -of the matter of fact accounts of his second restoration.

The fact that -Polyaenus combines the two accounts proves nothing, unless we -assume him to be incapable of confusing two similar events. Further, -Beloch is forced to make the marriage of Peisistratus with Megacles’ -daughter precede his first exile, since he sees that the childlessness of -the marriage led to the breach with the Coast<a id='r275' /><a href='#f275' class='c014'><sup>[275]</sup></a>.

Herodotus takes Paionian as a corruption of Paianian, -and Thracian as a popular version of Paionian. That Herodotus -himself was personally responsible for the emendation Paianian is -made probable by the words of the <cite>Constitution of Athens</cite>, “as -Herodotus says, a Paianian, as some say, a Thracian.” The Paionians -are made by Herodotus<a id='r314' /><a href='#f314' class='c014'><sup>[314]</sup></a> to recognize their own name in the paian -or war-cry of their enemies.

The -significance of this war is discussed below in the chapter where -Sicyon is dealt with in detail. Here it is enough to notice that -Cleisthenes of Athens was, through his mother, the grandson of his -namesake the tyrant of Sicyon who took so prominent a part in -this “sacred” war. He was probably also his heir<a id='r347' /><a href='#f347' class='c014'><sup>[347]</sup></a>. In the days of -Hippias Sicyon seems to have been still under a tyrant, but not of -the house to which Cleisthenes belonged. His name was Aeschines. -Evidence has been adduced by De Gubernatis<a id='r348' /><a href='#f348' class='c014'><sup>[348]</sup></a> for believing that -this Aeschines was an ally of Hippias of Athens. As we shall see -below when dealing with Sicyon, his attitude towards Delphi was -a pivotal point in the policy of the Sicyonian Cleisthenes, and in his -later years Sicyon and Delphi became deadly rivals. Athens can -hardly have kept out of the feud. We know little of the course of -events, and the history of recent years shows how idle it would be -to assume that internal revolutions are always reflected in foreign -politics. But we may be sure that both in Athens and Sicyon an -anti-Delphic policy would have its opponents as well as its supporters<a id='r349' /><a href='#f349' class='c014'><sup>[349]</sup></a>. -It is quite conceivable that the Athenian Cleisthenes had -once aimed at a union of central Greece with Athens, Sicyon, and -Delphi as the three chief states of the union and Cleisthenes himself -as the chief statesman, controlling the immense treasure of the -oracle and basing on it a tyranny over the two other cities, with -Sicyon controlling the trade of the Peloponnesus and the far West -while Athens did the like for the Northern trade and developed -with the Persian empire those friendly relations which the Alcmaeonidae -were still suspected of favouring at the time of the battle -of Marathon. If this is all speculation it at least recalls the fact -that the received accounts of Cleisthenes are all centred on what -he did in Athens in the few years following the fall of Hippias. -That indeed is practically all that is known about the second founder -of the Athenian democracy; but considering his varied antecedents -and his remarkable ancestry it is well to consider how small a chapter -<span class='pageno' id='Page_67'>67</span>this must have been in what was probably a long<a id='r350' /><a href='#f350' class='c014'><sup>[350]</sup></a> as well as an -eventful life. But to return to the short chapter about which something -is known we find that the way Cleisthenes secured his position -against the banished tyrant was by outbidding him. “He enfranchised -many foreigners and slaves and metics<a id='r351' /><a href='#f351' class='c014'><sup>[351]</sup></a>.” The Peisistratids -had ruled Athens as masters. Cleisthenes, by the stroke of genius -so excellently epitomized by Herodotus, “took the people into -partnership<a id='r352' /><a href='#f352' class='c014'><sup>[352]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>It was this memorable partnership that dealt the cause of tyranny -at Athens its final blow.

But the result was only to cement the partnership -between his Alcmaeonid rival and the people. The army, the navy, -and the civil service became paid professions, or at least paid occupations, -and the state, with Pericles at its head, perhaps the largest -and most popular employer of the free population. Individuals of -outstanding wealth were more and more kept in their political -place by having to perform expensive liturgies.

Thucydides says -of him that “having a powerful fleet he made divers -of the islands subject to him, and in particular captured -Rheneia and dedicated it to the Delian Apollo<a id='r371' /><a href='#f371' class='c014'><sup>[371]</sup></a>.” But -even the capture of Rheneia, which Thucydides seems to regard -as the principal warlike achievement of Polycrates’ fleet, was one -that may have had important commercial consequences.

In that case it is not inconceivable that the -repeated purifications of Delos in the sixth and fifth centuries may -have had not only a religious signification, but also the purpose of -restricting a commercial element that was constantly reasserting -itself.</p> - -<p class='c007'>We need not be surprised to find a commercial potentate exerting -his power by means of an army or navy. War has so far in the world’s -history always stood in the immediate background of even the most -peaceful political power. There is nothing in the nature of a -capitalist government to make it anti-militarist. If, as seems to have -been the case, the early tyrants realized how seldom war does anything -for commercial prosperity except to ruin it, it only shows -them to have been men of unusual insight, as indeed there are -many reasons for thinking that they were. If Polycrates was an -exception to the generally peaceful character of the early tyranny, -the fact may be explained by his antagonism to Persia, with which -he appears to have been openly at war during part of his reign<a id='r375' /><a href='#f375' class='c014'><sup>[375]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Our records of this war contain obvious mis-statements about -the death of Cyrus, and their whole truth has been questioned<a id='r376' /><a href='#f376' class='c014'><sup>[376]</sup></a>. -But the hostility of Polycrates to Persia is sufficiently shown by his -friendship with Egypt. His break with Amasis king of Egypt can -scarcely be anything but a desertion to the common enemy Persia. -The catholic character of his piracy, which stopped all shipping -though it confiscated only hostile craft, is not really explained by his -jest when he claimed that by this method he not only injured his -enemies whose ships he kept, but also secured the gratitude of his -friends, whose ships he released. His proceedings become really -comprehensible only if we understand them as one of the earliest -instances of a strict blockade, plainly directed against the great -<span class='pageno' id='Page_72'>72</span>land power to the east. The Peloponnesian expedition against -Polycrates shows simply that the neutrals to the west did not yet -realize who was their real enemy<a id='r377' /><a href='#f377' class='c014'><sup>[377]</sup></a>. The danger from Persia only -became apparent to European Greece when Darius invaded Scythia -and Thrace<a id='r378' /><a href='#f378' class='c014'><sup>[378]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>There is every reason to believe that Polycrates supported Cambyses -half-heartedly and under compulsion.

It is ascribed to the period -when Samos ruled the waves<a id='r381' /><a href='#f381' class='c014'><sup>[381]</sup></a>, which we have seen already to mean -the reign of Polycrates, and this indication as to date agrees with the -statement<a href='#f381' class='c014'><sup>[381]</sup></a> that the war occurred at the end of Cyrus’ reign. It -brings Polycrates into a situation which alike in its patriotic and -in its selfish side anticipates the attitude of Dionysius of Syracuse -towards Carthage. But even this war may have been in part an -attempt to maintain Samos in her commercial and industrial -position. From the Samian point of view war with Persia meant -first and foremost a struggle against Miletus. The island city and -its neighbour on the mainland had long been rivals, and the -supremacy of the one had meant the depression of the other. -Miletus was now under the Persians and had made favourable -terms with her conquerors. What Cyrus was aiming at in -Anatolia is made sufficiently plain to us by the description in -Herodotus of the way that he treated the conquered Lydians. They -<span class='pageno' id='Page_73'>73</span>were to bring up their children simply to play music and to become -retail traders<a id='r382' /><a href='#f382' class='c014'><sup>[382]</sup></a>. A similar account is given by Zenobius: “they say -that Cyrus, having overcome the Lydians, charged them to become -retail traders (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">καπηλεύειν</span>) and not to acquire arms<a id='r383' /><a href='#f383' class='c014'><sup>[383]</sup></a>.” Zenobius -says nothing about the music. There can be little doubt that the -trading was the main thing. Both writers say that Cyrus’ object -was to prevent the Lydians breaking out into armed rebellion, -and this may be true as far as it goes. But Cyrus did not treat all -his rebellious provinces in this way. It looks as though he intended -to make conquered Sardis, devoted entirely to trade and with the -Persian army behind it, into the commercial capital of his kingdom, -with Miletus as its chief seaport. This policy, if successful, -would have been disastrous to the trade of Samos. May it not -have been to prevent it that Polycrates organized the fleet and -pursued the naval policy that won him such fame and unpopularity? -We have an instance of rivalry between Polycrates and Sardis in -the “laura” which he constructed at Samos, the significance of -which is discussed below<a id='r384' /><a href='#f384' class='c014'><sup>[384]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>In any case Polycrates employed his fleet for commercial purposes -as well as warlike. He traded with Egypt<a id='r385' /><a href='#f385' class='c014'><sup>[385]</sup></a>, which was the one -Eastern country that was during most of his reign independent of -Persia and open to Samian trade. The statement of Clytus the -Aristotelian that “Polycrates the tyrant of the Samians from motives -of luxury gathered the products of every country<a id='r386' /><a href='#f386' class='c014'><sup>[386]</sup></a>” shows that -Polycrates had a personal interest in the transport trade. There -is unfortunately nothing to show that he employed his own -vessels.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The tyranny of Polycrates and Samian industry.</div> - -<p class='c007'>It is difficult again with the available evidence completely to -identify the tyrant with Samian industry. He was -the patron of Theodorus, who was famous not only -as a jeweller, but also as a maker of metal vases<a id='r387' /><a href='#f387' class='c014'><sup>[387]</sup></a>. -The possible significance of this fact will be seen -in a moment, when we proceed to examine the statements about -<span class='pageno' id='Page_74'>74</span>Polycrates’ activities before he became tyrant. There is however no -evidence that Polycrates was himself engaged in the Samian metal -industries during his reign. For the woollen industries the evidence -is stronger. Among the things which Athenaeus<a id='r388' /><a href='#f388' class='c014'><sup>[388]</sup></a> declares that -Polycrates, when tyrant, introduced into Samos are sheep from -Miletus. Athenaeus is here quoting Clytus. Later in the same -passage he quotes another writer, Alexis, as stating that the tyrant -imported sheep from Miletus and Attica. The sheep were of course -imported not for their mutton but for their wool: the wools of -Miletus were particularly famous. During his reign Polycrates lent -support to Arcesilaus III, king of Cyrene in “sheep-rearing Libya<a id='r389' /><a href='#f389' class='c014'><sup>[389]</sup></a>” -and himself probably a merchant prince<a id='r390' /><a href='#f390' class='c014'><sup>[390]</sup></a>, who when banished from -his own dominions sought refuge with the Samian tyrant<a id='r391' /><a href='#f391' class='c014'><sup>[391]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The tyranny of Polycrates and Samian coinage.</div> - -<p class='c007'>One reported act of Polycrates seems out of keeping with the -view that he was a great merchant. “It is said that -Polycrates struck a large quantity of local coins in -lead and then gilded them and gave them to them -in payment<a id='r392' /><a href='#f392' class='c014'><sup>[392]</sup></a>.” Herodotus, our authority for this -statement, dismisses it as idle (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ματαιότερος</span>). But it is supported -by numismatic evidence<a id='r393' /><a href='#f393' class='c014'><sup>[393]</sup></a>, and the reason alleged for the issue in -Herodotus is perfectly plausible. Polycrates was resorting to a -desperate expedient for getting rid of an invader. Apart from the -question of its truth, the report is valuable as indicating that Polycrates, -like his contemporary Hippias, was credited with a tendency -to make practical experiments with the coinage. This is borne out -by another report, quoted by Suidas<a id='r394' /><a href='#f394' class='c014'><sup>[394]</sup></a>, according to which the -Samaina reputed to have been invented by Polycrates was not a -ship but a coin.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The two reports are not necessarily contradictory. The tyrant -may have introduced both the ship and the coin, like Anaxilas, -tyrant of Rhegium, who introduced the hare into his dominions -<span class='pageno' id='Page_75'>75</span>and commemorated his action by putting a hare on his coins (fig. 9). -The Samaina is found on extant Samian coins (fig. 9), some of -which appear to have circulated in Samos itself about the middle -of the fifth century, while others have been associated with the -Samian refugees who migrated to the far West in 494 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> and -occupied Messana in Sicily with -the aid of Anaxilas of Rhegium, -whose subjects they became.

If the coin type used by -the refugees of 494 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> appears later on the coins of Samos itself, -the fact is best explained by assuming that it was already in use in -Samos before the earlier date. Moreover one of the coins generally -associated with the refugees is inscribed with the letters <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Α Ι</span>, which -have no obvious connexion with Messana or the Samians who went -there, but which do on the other hand form the first syllable of the -name Aiakes, the name of the Samian tyrant from whom the -refugees fled to Messana.

According to Grote<a id='r424' /><a href='#f424' class='c014'><sup>[424]</sup></a> -he was just walking there. The Greek is <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἠγόραζε</span>, which may mean -“frequenting the market place,” or “buying,” or “selling in the -market place.” The incident suggests rather the last meaning, and -that Syloson was in Memphis as a trader (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">κατ’ ἐμπορίην</span>) in cloaks -(<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">χλανίδες</span>). The unromantic commercial aspect of the transaction -between Syloson and Darius, which is already obscured in Herodotus’ -account, has quite disappeared in that of Strabo<a id='r425' /><a href='#f425' class='c014'><sup>[425]</sup></a>, who says simply -that Syloson “made a present to Darius of a garment which he had -seen him wearing and taken a fancy for ..., and received the tyranny -as a present in return.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>The drinking vessels (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ποτήρια</span>) were almost certainly of metal. -<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Ποτήρια</span> of earthenware are only once<a id='r426' /><a href='#f426' class='c014'><sup>[426]</sup></a> mentioned in the passages -quoted in Liddell and Scott’s <cite>Lexicon</cite>, whereas there are numerous -passages in which <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ποτήρια</span> are specifically stated to have been of -metal<a id='r427' /><a href='#f427' class='c014'><sup>[427]</sup></a>.

Tafnekht -himself described the situation not without tact in a letter to -Pianchi: “To whatsoever city thou hast turned thy face, thou hast -not found thy servant there, until I reached the islands of the sea, -trembling before thy might, and saying ‘his flame is hostile to me.’” -Eventually he submitted to the Ethiopians, but the submission -seems to have been little more than nominal.

Sais was not always able to -remain neutral, but lying right away in the West it was able at -least to preserve and even to develop its commerce. It seized its -<span class='pageno' id='Page_103'>103</span>opportunity and did so. The commercial code of Bocchoris, the -hucksters and artizans and tradespeople of Sethon, and the cargoes -of Psammetichus mark three great stages in the development, at -the end of which, to quote the words of Maspero, “the valley of -the Nile becomes a vast workshop, where work was carried on with -unparalleled activity<a id='r535' /><a href='#f535' class='c014'><sup>[535]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>All these considerations lend a general probability to the narrative -of Diodorus.

It concerns us therefore to enquire what -was the position of Naukratis in the days of Psammetichus. The -question has been much disputed, especially since the eighties of the -last century, when the site was excavated by Petrie and Ernest -Gardner, and an account of the city was published by Petrie<a id='r537' /><a href='#f537' class='c014'><sup>[537]</sup></a> based -on the literary sources and the results of the dig. As however some -of the excavators’ archaeological conclusions have been challenged -in many quarters, and as too some important archaeological evidence -has only recently come to light, it may be worth while to -summarise briefly the whole body of available material.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>a</em>) literary evidence;</div> - -<p class='c007'>S. Jerome under the date Olymp. VII 4 (= 749 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>) says “the -Milesians held the sea for eighteen years and built in -Egypt the city of Naukratis<a id='r538' /><a href='#f538' class='c014'><sup>[538]</sup></a>.” This statement agrees -with Stephanus Byzantinus<a id='r539' /><a href='#f539' class='c014'><sup>[539]</sup></a> who calls Naukratis “a city of Egypt -from the Milesians who were at that time supreme at sea.” Jerome -and Stephanus are in harmony with Polycharmus<a id='r540' /><a href='#f540' class='c014'><sup>[540]</sup></a> who mentions a -certain Herostratos as living at Naukratis and trading there and -making long voyages in the XXIIIrd Olymp. (688 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>). But there -are other writers who put the foundation later. Strabo, in the passage -<span class='pageno' id='Page_104'>104</span>already referred to<a id='r541' /><a href='#f541' class='c014'><sup>[541]</sup></a>, after describing the foundation of the Milesians’ -Fort in the days of Psammetichus, continues: “and eventually they -sailed up to the Saite nome and after defeating Inaros in a naval -engagement they founded the city of Naukratis.” Lastly we have -Herodotus<a id='r542' /><a href='#f542' class='c014'><sup>[542]</sup></a> stating that King Amasis (570–526 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>) “gave the -city of Naukratis for Greeks who came to Egypt to dwell in,” an -assertion that taken by itself might mean that Naukratis was founded -in or after 570 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span><a id='r543' /><a href='#f543' class='c014'><sup>[543]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>One further witness remains to be cited. Sappho wrote a poem -reproaching her brother Charaxos for his devotion to a Naukratite -hetaera named Doriche, with whom he had fallen in love when -bringing Lesbian wine to Naukratis by way of trade<a id='r544' /><a href='#f544' class='c014'><sup>[544]</sup></a>.

This means that Naukratis had already -grown to be a pleasure city in the days of Sappho. Unfortunately -her dates are not absolutely certain. A recent heresy brought her -down to the reign of Amasis, but her floruit is generally given as -the end of the seventh century, and there seem to be no sufficient -reasons for not accepting that date.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Such is the literary evidence. No single item of it is decisive for -an early occupation. Those which are definite can be questioned -on point of fact. Sappho, whose evidence alone cannot be so -questioned, may conceivably have written after 570. Combined -however they make it probable that Naukratis rose to importance -before the days of Amasis, and that Herodotus either confused the -foundation of the city with that of the Hellenium<a id='r546' /><a href='#f546' class='c014'><sup>[546]</sup></a> or else did not -intend his words “gave the city for Greeks who came to Egypt to -dwell in” to imply that the Milesians were not there in force before -the granting of this concession<a id='r547' /><a href='#f547' class='c014'><sup>[547]</sup></a>. Nevertheless, if we were limited -<span class='pageno' id='Page_105'>105</span>to these literary sources, we could not be certain that where -Diodorus seems to supplement his predecessors he was not merely -adding details that they appear to imply. That is in fact the view of -his narrative that some modern scholars apparently hold<a id='r548' /><a href='#f548' class='c014'><sup>[548]</sup></a>. Even if -this were so, his additions would still have a certain value. If -Diodorus, writing in the first century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>, read between the lines -of Herodotus the same unstated implications that have been read -there in recent times, the coincidence points to the probability that -this reading is not altogether wrong<a id='r549' /><a href='#f549' class='c014'><sup>[549]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>b</em>) archaeological evidence:</div> - -<p class='c007'>That is as far as the texts take us. For further light we must -look to archaeology. The new light began by increasing -the perplexity. Petrie and Gardner both claimed -that their excavations at Naukratis proved that it -had been an important Greek city from the middle of the seventh -century. But their main arguments were before long shown to be -mistaken, and somewhat naturally it began to be assumed that they -must be wrong in their conclusions.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(i) excavations of Petrie, who dated Naukratis from the time of Psammetichus I;</div> - -<p class='c007'>Petrie<a id='r550' /><a href='#f550' class='c014'><sup>[550]</sup></a> based his arguments on the following observations. In -the South part of the town he came across what he -described as a scarab factory. There were numerous -scarabs of Psamtek I, some of Psamtek II, and some -that are probably of Apries; but none of Amasis. -This seems to date the factory from well before 610 -till after 589. Two feet beneath the factory was a burnt stratum -of plain potsherds which must take us back a good way further, to -at least 650 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> and probably earlier. The scarabs are imitation -Egyptian and are taken by Petrie to be Greek. Further South, but -also within the area of the burnt stratum, there is a large enclosure -which he describes as surrounded by a strong brick wall. This he -identified with the Hellenium, where Herodotus states that nine -Greek cities had quarters assigned to them by Amasis. The dimensions -of the bricks point to the early Saite period.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(ii) further excavations by Hogarth invalidated Petrie’s arguments;</div> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_106'>106</span>But in 1899 and 1903 further work was done at Naukratis by -Hogarth which led him to the following conclusions. -Petrie’s Hellenium is wrongly identified: it is not a -walled enclosure: what Petrie took for walls is simply -débris of houses<a id='r551' /><a href='#f551' class='c014'><sup>[551]</sup></a>. The real Hellenium is to be found -in what Petrie called the North Temenos<a id='r552' /><a href='#f552' class='c014'><sup>[552]</sup></a>. All -Petrie’s evidence for a seventh century Naukratis comes from his -scarab factory and his “Great Temenos,” both in the South part -of the town, which is marked off by the occurrence there of the -burnt stratum already referred to, and is shown by the finds to -have been the Egyptian quarter of the town<a id='r553' /><a href='#f553' class='c014'><sup>[553]</sup></a>. The Greeks would -naturally have separate quarters and occupy the Northern seaward -end of the town<a id='r554' /><a href='#f554' class='c014'><sup>[554]</sup></a>. The scarabs, it is maintained, may well be of -Phoenician make<a id='r555' /><a href='#f555' class='c014'><sup>[555]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(iii) arguments from the vase inscriptions shown to be indecisive.</div> - -<p class='c007'>The early arrival of the Greeks in Naukratis has been thought -by Ernest Gardner to be confirmed by the numerous -inscriptions, some painted but most (about 700) incised, -on the pottery from the site<a id='r556' /><a href='#f556' class='c014'><sup>[556]</sup></a>. His arguments -were criticized by Hirschfeld and Kirchhoff<a id='r557' /><a href='#f557' class='c014'><sup>[557]</sup></a> and have -received little support<a id='r558' /><a href='#f558' class='c014'><sup>[558]</sup></a>. In some of them the lettering appears -very crude and primitive; but this may be due simply to the fact -that they are scratched by hasty and unskilled hands. They are not -more archaic in appearance than some of the graffiti on vases from -Rhitsona (Mykalessos) in Boeotia, of which the earliest must be -dated in the middle of the sixth century, while others are contemporary -with the finely written signatures of Teisias, who flourished -<span class='pageno' id='Page_107'>107</span>at the end of the sixth century<a id='r559' /><a href='#f559' class='c014'><sup>[559]</sup></a>. Gardner is certainly wrong in -thinking that the lettering of any of his inscriptions proves a seventh -century date. But on the other hand, as well remarked by Edgar<a id='r560' /><a href='#f560' class='c014'><sup>[560]</sup></a>, all -that his critics have proved is that none of the inscriptions are <em>necessarily</em> -so early. It by no means follows that they are necessarily not. -But even supposing that the Naukratite graffiti are all sixth century, -it does not follow that Greek Naukratis was of no importance till -then. Both Gardner and his critics and likewise Mallet<a id='r561' /><a href='#f561' class='c014'><sup>[561]</sup></a> discuss -the inscriptions with too little reference to the particular sherds on -which they are inscribed. Thirty years ago, when the study of -archaic Greek pottery was still in its infancy, this was perhaps -inevitable. But in the present state of our knowledge the style of -the potsherds would be a natural starting-point for dating the -graffiti. Unfortunately the information on this point given by -Gardner is inadequate, and the Naukratite finds have been so dispersed, -that the task of collating sherds and graffiti must now wait for -someone who can devote to it his undivided time and attention<a id='r562' /><a href='#f562' class='c014'><sup>[562]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Under these circumstances the best that can be done is to -turn to some more recently excavated site. At Rhitsona the -graffiti are nothing like so numerous as at Naukratis. Still they -<span class='pageno' id='Page_108'>108</span>are numerous enough to justify certain observations. Some 50 -examples have been found<a id='r563' /><a href='#f563' class='c014'><sup>[563]</sup></a>. All of them are on vases of the -sixth century. Not one occurs on the numerous vases of the -seventh century also found on the site<a id='r564' /><a href='#f564' class='c014'><sup>[564]</sup></a>. Plainly in Boeotia the -fashion of scratching inscriptions on pottery only became prevalent<a id='r565' /><a href='#f565' class='c014'><sup>[565]</sup></a> -in the sixth century. By itself therefore the absence of seventh -century Greek graffiti from Naukratis would no more prove the -absence of seventh century Greek worshippers<a id='r566' /><a href='#f566' class='c014'><sup>[566]</sup></a> than the corresponding -absence from Rhitsona proves the absence of seventh -century graves. At the other end of the period Edgar has already -noticed that “the practice of dedicating vases in the temples appears -to have almost died out at Naukratis before the middle of the fifth -century<a id='r567' /><a href='#f567' class='c014'><sup>[567]</sup></a>.” Edgar makes this remark at the end of his discussion of -the inscriptions found in 1899. He is apparently thinking of inscribed -dedications. Elsewhere, discussing the pottery discovered -during the same dig, he mentions late red figure (<i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">i.e.</span></i> about 450 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> -onwards) as plentiful and black glazed pottery with stamped ornaments -inside as particularly common. This latter ware dates from -about the middle of the fifth century, but its main vogue is later -still<a id='r568' /><a href='#f568' class='c014'><sup>[568]</sup></a>. Unfortunately not a sherd of this latter ware from Naukratis -has been published, and not a word is said as to its distribution over -the site. It was customarily offered to the dead at Rhitsona. It -may well have been offered to the gods at Naukratis<a id='r569' /><a href='#f569' class='c014'><sup>[569]</sup></a>. There is of -course no need to assume that the fashion of inscribing vases came -in and went out simultaneously in Naukratis and Mykalessos. -Boeotia was often behind the times, the Ionians of the seventh and -sixth centuries generally ahead of them. But the Boeotian evidence -shows how cautiously the Naukratite graffiti must be used for -determining the date of the first Greek settlement.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(iv) The absence of proto-Corinthian pottery proves little.</div> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_109'>109</span>Nor is there anything against a seventh century date in the -absence of proto-Corinthian pottery<a id='r570' /><a href='#f570' class='c014'><sup>[570]</sup></a>, which is so -prevalent on the mainland in seventh century Greece. -Edgar indeed<a id='r571' /><a href='#f571' class='c014'><sup>[571]</sup></a> infers from this absence that the fabric -must have been obsolete by the time the Greeks -came to Naukratis. This argument cannot be maintained. Kinch -notices that there is none of this ware in a chapel that he excavated -at Vroulia in Rhodes and in which he found a good deal of seventh -century Greek pottery<a id='r572' /><a href='#f572' class='c014'><sup>[572]</sup></a>. Within the proto-Corinthian sphere of -influence the style lasted on side by side with its successors all -through the sixth century<a id='r573' /><a href='#f573' class='c014'><sup>[573]</sup></a>. This late proto-Corinthian ware is -equally conspicuous by its absence from Naukratis. To push Edgar’s -argument to its logical conclusion we should have to doubt the -existence of Naukratis in the days of Amasis himself<a id='r574' /><a href='#f574' class='c014'><sup>[574]</sup></a>. Of the twelve -Greek cities that had quarters in Naukratis in the days of Amasis -only one, Aegina, belonged to European Greece. For the little -known history of this Aeginetan settlement the absence of proto-Corinthian -may be of significance. Beyond that it is not.</p> - -<p class='c007'>So far then all that has been proved is that both Petrie and Gardner -fixed partly on the wrong material for deciding whether Naukratis -was a Greek city of importance in the days of Psammetichus I. -And even here on one important point the criticism of them has -been shown to be ill founded. Edgar doubted the Greek character -of the scarab factory: but not only are the types on some of the -scarabs of Greek origin, but a faience fragment from the site shows -fragments of a Greek inscription placed on it before the glazing of -the vase<a id='r575' /><a href='#f575' class='c014'><sup>[575]</sup></a>, a fact that can hardly be explained except by assuming -a Greek maker.</p> - -<p class='c007'>A great advance was made by Prinz, whose monograph <cite><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">Funde -aus Naukratis</span></cite> marked the first adequate treatment of the pottery. -The earlier controversies about the date of Naukratis had made -little appeal to the potsherds that from their mere numbers -<span class='pageno' id='Page_110'>110</span>offer the most valuable evidence that has been yielded by the site. -<span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>(v) Positive -evidence for -an early foundation -comes -from the pottery -actually -found, viz.:<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -Edgar indeed observed in 1905<a id='r576' /><a href='#f576' class='c014'><sup>[576]</sup></a> that</p> - -<p class='c015'>it seems very doubtful whether all the fragments from -the Naukratite temples can be as late as 570. There is -at least a probability that some of the temples, especially -that of the Milesian Apollo, date from the earlier [<i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">i.e.</span></i> -Hogarth’s Egyptian] days of the town.</p> - -<p class='c007'>But apparently the question was still regarded as “primarily a -question of historical criticism<a id='r577' /><a href='#f577' class='c014'><sup>[577]</sup></a>.” Since Prinz’s monograph appeared -the pottery has taken the first place in the discussion, and it has now -finally confirmed the earlier dating.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Milesian (?)

The statuette was a span long -and of archaic workmanship, and had been bought -by him at Paphos during the voyage. When the storm arose the -people on board had betaken themselves to this eikon and prayed -it to save them.

It was only in the course of that century -that brigandage and piracy gave place to trade and commerce and -the first traces can be discovered of the great renaissance that led -to Classical Greece.

Six maintained that when Herodotus there states that -the Lydians were the first to strike and use coins of gold and silver, -the reference is to the concurrent issue of coins in the two separate -metals, or, in other words, to the coinage of Croesus (fig. 19. <em>b</em>), -who is generally admitted to have been the first to give up electrum -in favour of separate issues of gold and silver. But though it is true -that “coins of gold and silver” cannot mean “coins of electrum,” -it by no means follows that Herodotus is referring to the beginnings -not of coinage but of bimetallism. Babelon is right in insisting on -the exact words used by Herodotus, but in his interpretation of them -he takes perhaps too little account of the type of fact usually recorded -by the historian. Which is Herodotus more likely to give us? An -inaccurate version of a fundamental fact like the invention of coined -money? Or a pedantically accurate statement about an experiment -in bimetallism that was after all of quite secondary importance? -Other things being equal we should surely always prefer the interpretation -which gives us the former, and there is nothing to prevent -us from doing so in the present case. Assume that Xenophanes -means what he says and that his statement represents the prevalent -tradition, and it is easy to see how Herodotus came to use the -precise words that he did.</p> - -<p class='c007'>“The Lydians,” he begins, “were the first to strike and use -coins.” We must remember who it was that he was writing for. -His readers would be found mainly in the free cities of European -Greece. Down to the days when he ended his history these European -<span class='pageno' id='Page_132'>132</span>Greeks had coined almost exclusively in silver. On the other hand -the coinage of Lydia and the other Persian satrapies of Asia Minor -consisted of Darics of gold and shekels of silver, and people in those -parts doubtless remembered that this coinage in the two metals went -back to the days of the Lydian kings. It is a fundamental principle -with our historian never to omit any fact that he can possibly -insert. In this case an extra fact can be inserted in three words, -<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">χρυσοῦ καὶ ἀργύρου</span>, and almost inevitably the words go in. Possibly -he had forgotten for the moment the primitive pieces of electrum: -it is equally possible that accuracy was sacrificed to fulness of information. -Another way of meeting Babelon’s difficulty is suggested -by Babelon’s own article. It is generally assumed that the first -coins struck in Asia Minor were all of electrum, and that electrum -later gave way to gold and silver. But Babelon<a id='r685' /><a href='#f685' class='c014'><sup>[685]</sup></a> quotes an example -of what is generally regarded as the earliest Lydian electrum type -(<em>ob.</em> striated, <em>rev.</em> three small stamps as on silver spoons) that appears -from its specific gravity to contain 98 per cent. silver and weighs -10·81 grammes. This latter is the unit of the so-called Babylonian -standard, which is employed almost exclusively for silver, the only -exception being a gold issue of Croesus. It is true that the coin has -a yellow tint, and that it may contain more than 2 per cent. gold, if -the light specific gravity is due partly to the presence of copper<a id='r686' /><a href='#f686' class='c014'><sup>[686]</sup></a>. -There are cases too of what seem to be unquestionable electrum -coins with a very low percentage of gold, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">e.g.</span></i> <cite>Brit. Mus. Cat. Coins -of Ionia</cite>, p. 47, nos. 2, 3, Ephesian thirds of the normal Phoenician -standard, one with only 14 per cent. gold to judge by the specific -gravity, the other actually with only 5 per cent. But the combined -evidence of weight and specific gravity gives strong support to -Babelon’s view that the coin must have been intended to pass as -silver<a id='r687' /><a href='#f687' class='c014'><sup>[687]</sup></a>. Babelon assigns this piece to Miletus, but on no sufficient -grounds. As he himself points out<a id='r688' /><a href='#f688' class='c014'><sup>[688]</sup></a>, the weight is exactly that of -<span class='pageno' id='Page_133'>133</span>the silver coins of Croesus, a weight which in Ionia prevailed only -at Colophon and Erythrae in the fifth century and at Miletus in -the third<a id='r689' /><a href='#f689' class='c014'><sup>[689]</sup></a>, and in these three cases was borrowed from the Persian -siglos (shekel), which latter was the direct successor of the silver -coins of Croesus. The earliest silver coins assigned by Head to -Miletus are struck on the Aeginetan standard (185 grains)<a id='r690' /><a href='#f690' class='c014'><sup>[690]</sup></a>. In -short, if it seems probable that this piece is silver, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">a fortiori</span></i> is it -probable that it is Lydian, and if, as the evidence all tends to show, -this is the case, the importance of the piece at once becomes obvious. -It means that from the earliest period of their coinage the Lydians -struck not only in electrum but also in silver. Now for Herodotus -electrum was only a variety of gold. His name for it is “white -gold” (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">λευκὸς χρυσός</span>), and he appears to regard it as gold of -a particular quality, just as Bonacossi does the gold of China when -he describes it as “pâle, mou et ductile<a id='r691' /><a href='#f691' class='c014'><sup>[691]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>When therefore Herodotus speaks of the Lydians as the first to -coin in gold and silver he may well mean white gold and silver and -be referring, like Xenophanes, to the original “invention” of coined -money. But even if Babelon is right, there is still no decisive reason -why we should not ascribe to the Lydians the original “invention” -as well as the first bimetallic development. Thus Xenophanes and -Herodotus may be regarded as pointing to Lydia as the first country -to strike coins, and after all they were in a fairly good position for -ascertaining the facts<a id='r692' /><a href='#f692' class='c014'><sup>[692]</sup></a>.

Radet<a id='r759' /><a href='#f759' class='c014'><sup>[759]</sup></a> pictures Gyges as a sort of major domo to -Candaules, and the ring as the emblem of his power. Explanations -of this kind are not without plausibility; they are right in taking -notice of the signet<a id='r760' /><a href='#f760' class='c014'><sup>[760]</sup></a>; but they ignore one essential detail of the story -namely the marvellous discovery of the ring, nor do they go to the -root of the matter, if, as the story plainly implies, the ring of Gyges -is to be equated with the real source of his power. From this last -point of view it becomes probable that Radet has come very much -nearer the truth in another passage, where he says: “<span lang="fr" xml:lang="fr">Gygès et ses -successeurs ont possédé un merveilleux talisman: la -science économique</span><a id='r761' /><a href='#f761' class='c014'><sup>[761]</sup></a>.” <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>explained by -Radet as “la -science économique.”<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -There is a point about the -ring story that tells strongly in favour of some explanation -on the lines of this second suggestion of -Radet’s. The hero of the story is not always Gyges: in Pliny<a id='r762' /><a href='#f762' class='c014'><sup>[762]</sup></a> it is -Midas the king of Phrygia who was overthrown by the Cimmerians -a generation before they overthrew Gyges<a id='r763' /><a href='#f763' class='c014'><sup>[763]</sup></a>. It is of course possible -that Pliny is merely making a mistake about the name. But it is -equally possible that a genuine tradition attributed the ring to Midas. -Midas has much else in common with Gyges and the points of -resemblance deserve to be noticed. His kingdom, like that of Gyges, -was famous for its precious metals<a id='r764' /><a href='#f764' class='c014'><sup>[764]</sup></a>. Like Lydia it occupied an -<span class='pageno' id='Page_147'>147</span>important part of the great caravan route<a id='r765' /><a href='#f765' class='c014'><sup>[765]</sup></a>. Midas was the golden -king still more than Gyges. His touch turned all things into gold -until he was freed from this disastrous power by bathing in the -Pactolus, the river from which the Lydians got so much of their -electrum<a id='r766' /><a href='#f766' class='c014'><sup>[766]</sup></a>. According to one account coins were first struck -by “Demodike of Cyme, daughter of Agamemnon king of the -Cymaeans, after her marriage with Midas the Phrygian<a id='r767' /><a href='#f767' class='c014'><sup>[767]</sup></a>.” Midas, -like Gyges, sent rich presents (bribes?) to Delphi<a id='r768' /><a href='#f768' class='c014'><sup>[768]</sup></a>. In short the -great point of resemblance which Midas bears to Gyges lies in his -enormous wealth and the ways in which he appears to have acquired -and used it<a id='r769' /><a href='#f769' class='c014'><sup>[769]</sup></a>. It may be that this implied the possession of the magic -ring<a id='r770' /><a href='#f770' class='c014'><sup>[770]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>With the story of the finding of the ring cp. stories of finds in mining districts.</div> - -<p class='c007'>The circumstances of the find recall two anecdotes in the -<cite><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">Mirabiles Auscultationes</span></cite><a id='r771' /><a href='#f771' class='c014'><sup>[771]</sup></a>, located the one in Paionia -the other in Pieria, in which, as in the Gyges story, -we have the rains, the chasms, the find of gold and -the taking of it to the palace.

But the point to be noticed is that both Paionia and Pieria -are in the famous mining district that played so great a part in the -history of Athens and Macedonia. Considering the fame of the -<span class='pageno' id='Page_148'>148</span>mines of Lydia it is natural to ask whether they did not play their -part in the evolution of the story of the ring. Stories of men buried -in the mines of Lydia did actually exist. One of them, told in the -<cite><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">Mirabiles Auscultationes</span></cite>, shows that in Lydia, as in the region of -Mt Pangaion and the river Strymon, chasms containing skeletons -and gold were not unlikely to be mine shafts, and the power secured -by their discoverer to be simply the power of suddenly and perhaps -secretly acquired wealth.</p> - -<p class='c007'>As to the date at which Tmolus was first mined nothing is known -except that the workings were disused in the days of Strabo<a id='r772' /><a href='#f772' class='c014'><sup>[772]</sup></a>.

Have we a -parallel in the case of the Gyges story? Is its hero the inventor of -the new stamped coinage and has his name become associated with -the rings that he displaced?

Babelon holds that the seal -makers (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">δακτυλιογλύφοι</span>) of the period were probably also the coin -strikers. But if we are to follow one of our own leading numismatists, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_150'>150</span>G. Macdonald, the connexion between seal and coin was -closer than this. Originally, according to him<a id='r780' /><a href='#f780' class='c014'><sup>[780]</sup></a>, coins were simply -pieces of sealed metal.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>“Coins are pieces of sealed metal.”</div> - -<p class='c015'>The minting of money in its most primitive form was simply the -placing of a seal on lumps of electrum that had previously -been weighed and adjusted to a fixed standard: the excessive -rarity of coins that have only a striated surface on the obverse -proves that this primitive stage was of short duration<a id='r781' /><a href='#f781' class='c014'><sup>[781]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Greek seals were normally attached to rings<a id='r782' /><a href='#f782' class='c014'><sup>[782]</sup></a>. The definition of -a coin as a piece of sealed metal was started by Burgon, who used it -as an argument for the religious character of coin types and described -the seal as “the impress of the symbol of the tutelar divinity of the -city<a id='r783' /><a href='#f783' class='c014'><sup>[783]</sup></a>.” Macdonald very rightly rejects the theory, so widely current -before the appearance of Ridgeway’s <cite>Metallic Currency</cite>, that all coin -types had a religious origin. But he himself proceeds to hang on -to the seal theory views of his own that are equally untenable, -at least in the sweeping form in which he states them. He -assumes that the seal must be always that of a state or king or -magistrate, and that the device is usually heraldic. The latter point -does not concern us here<a id='r784' /><a href='#f784' class='c014'><sup>[784]</sup></a>: the former does, since it is incompatible -with the views of Babelon and Lenormant that the earliest coins -were not state issues. But the seal theory does not depend on the -nature either of the seals or of the sealers. There is no reason why -we should not accept Babelon and Lenormant on the private -character of the earliest coins simultaneously with Burgon and -Macdonald on the character of the first coin types as being simply -seals. Indeed some of the evidence collected by Macdonald positively -suggests that we should. In the fifth and fourth centuries <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> at -Athens public property was stamped with the public seal, <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τῷ δημοσίῳ -σημάντρῳ</span><a id='r785' /><a href='#f785' class='c014'><sup>[785]</sup></a>. The same practice was followed in the fifth century -<span class='pageno' id='Page_151'>151</span>at Samos<a id='r786' /><a href='#f786' class='c014'><sup>[786]</sup></a>, and perhaps at Syracuse<a id='r787' /><a href='#f787' class='c014'><sup>[787]</sup></a>. This use of public seals to -stamp public property suggests corresponding private seals similarly -used. At this point the literary evidence fails us, but archaeological -documents come to our aid.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Metal was not the only material that the ancients stamped in this -way. Wine jars, bricks, and tiles were similarly stamped. Thousands -of these stamps have come down to us, and many of them bear city -symbols and a magistrate’s name. But they often bear also the name -of the maker, and the Danish scholar Nilsson<a id='r788' /><a href='#f788' class='c014'><sup>[788]</sup></a>, who has made a -thorough study of them, is inclined to regard them as essentially -the seals of private manufacturers. The magistrate’s name may -merely indicate the date: the state symbol may mean that the state -was the consignee, or that the manufacturer enjoyed some sort of -state protection, or was subjected to state taxation and control.</p> - -<p class='c007'>If then such was the history of the stamp as applied to bricks -and wine jars, we have a further reason for thinking that stamps -as applied to the precious metals may have originally been put on -them by private owners. May we not here have the true explanation -of the marvellous seal of Gyges’ ring? May not the owner of -this ring have been the first person to use his signet for stamping -coins of metal, and may not this fact be the origin of the stories -about its marvellous powers?</p> - -<p class='c007'>Whether this person was Gyges is another question. His claim -to the ring is not beyond dispute. We have seen already that it is -sometimes attributed to Midas. Even in the story as told by Plato -the MSS. make the hero “the ancestor of Gyges,” not Gyges himself, -and the fact that in other writers and elsewhere in the <cite>Republic</cite><a id='r789' /><a href='#f789' class='c014'><sup>[789]</sup></a> the -ring is called the ring of Gyges is not in itself decisive. Both the -ring and its magic powers may have passed from hand to hand. -But if the evidence and opinions that have been adduced in this -chapter have any value, our interpretation of the ring story does -not depend on establishing Gyges as the original owner.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Let us now revert for a moment to the illuminating theory of -<span class='pageno' id='Page_152'>152</span>Babelon that the striking of coins was at first a private undertaking -of merchants or miners or bankers, and that the final step in the -evolution of a gold and silver coinage was reached only when this -business of stamping and issuing the pieces was taken over by the -state. We are entirely without record of the actual transference that -the theory implies. Babelon assumes that the government created -the monopoly. This chapter suggests a modification of Babelon’s -view in one important point, namely that it was not the government -that made the monopoly, but the monopoly that made the government. -As in the case of Babelon’s own main thesis, we are forced -to trust largely to analogies. But the analogies are striking, and they -strike in two directions. We have first the commercial or financial -antecedents of the rulers of this period both in Lydia and in various -Greek states: and secondly we have the history of later Lydian -rulers and aspirants to the throne, notably Croesus and Sadyattes, -Cyrus and Pactyes, Xerxes and Pythes. The moral of their stories -is that no ruler could feel safe at Sardis until he had secured some -sort of financial supremacy. When we further consider that Gyges -was famous for his gold<a id='r790' /><a href='#f790' class='c014'><sup>[790]</sup></a>, and that his gold and his tyranny are -spoken of by Archilochus, probably in the same breath, then apart -from speculative interpretations of the story of the ring, there is at -least a clear possibility that the monopolist policy of Croesus and -his successors goes back at least to Gyges and perhaps even a generation -or so earlier, to some such ruler as Ardys or Spermos, and that -it was the monopoly in stamped pieces of electrum that brought -the first tyrant to the king’s palace and placed him on the throne<a id='r791' /><a href='#f791' class='c014'><sup>[791]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='chapter'> - <span class='pageno' id='Page_154'>154</span> - <h2 class='c005'>Chapter VI. <em>Argos</em></h2> -</div> - -<div class='lg-container-b c013'> - <div class='linegroup'> - <div class='group'> - <div class='line'><span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τὰν ἀρετὰν καὶ τὰν σοφίαν νικῶντι χελῶναι.</span></div> - </div> - </div> -</div> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<img src='images/i_p154.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic002'> -<p>Fig. 20.

But serious -doubts have been thrown on Pausanias’ dating, which -may very possibly have been influenced by the -Macedonian genealogies, in which case it is no confirmation of the -date arrived at by reckoning Pheidon tenth from Temenos. The -arguments for emending eighth to twenty-eighth are weighty<a id='r818' /><a href='#f818' class='c014'><sup>[818]</sup></a>. -Pausanias’ exact statement is that “at the eighth Olympian festival -the Pisatans called in Pheidon ... and celebrated the games along with -Pheidon<a id='r819' /><a href='#f819' class='c014'><sup>[819]</sup></a>.” But Strabo declares it to be “more probable (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐγγυτέρω -τῆς πίστεως</span>) that from the first Olympiad till the twenty-sixth -the presidency both of the temple and the games was held by the -Eleians<a id='r820' /><a href='#f820' class='c014'><sup>[820]</sup></a>.” Julius Africanus likewise knows nothing of any disturbance -at the eighth Olympiad, but records one at the twenty-eighth.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The difficulties in accepting the twenty-eighth Olympiad, as set -forth by Unger<a id='r821' /><a href='#f821' class='c014'><sup>[821]</sup></a>, are not very impressive. He argues that at the -twenty-eighth Olympiad the Eleians had arms<a id='r822' /><a href='#f822' class='c014'><sup>[822]</sup></a>, whereas Pheidon -made his attack “when the Eleians were without arms<a id='r823' /><a href='#f823' class='c014'><sup>[823]</sup></a>,” and that, -as the Pisatans celebrated the twenty-seventh Olympiad, Pheidon -in the twenty-eighth would have displaced not the Eleians, but -the Pisatans. But when Strabo says that the Eleians were without -arms, he or his source may mean that their Dymaean war left them -unequipped for home defence. Assume that this was so and that -they were preoccupied with their Dymaean war both in 672 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_160'>160</span>and in 668 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>, and the whole situation is explained easily. At the -twenty-seventh celebration the Pisatans unaided might secure the -presidency by a surprise attack. It would be at the next festival, -when the Eleians were forewarned, that the Pisatans would need -Pheidon’s help to displace them at Olympia. Weaker still is Unger’s -argument that a notice about Pheidon may have fallen out in -Eusebius under Olymp.

Mahaffy, for instance, is -inclined to argue that the Olympian lists cannot have existed in the -fifth century because they are not then used for purposes of dating. -He assumes that Hippias who made his edition of the list in 370 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> -can have had little more evidence at his disposal than Pausanias, -who lived over five hundred years later. Plutarch<a id='r826' /><a href='#f826' class='c014'><sup>[826]</sup></a>, whom he -quotes as discrediting the list, merely expresses an opinion which is -no more final than that of Mahaffy himself.

Mueller<a id='r827' /><a href='#f827' class='c014'><sup>[827]</sup></a>.

To assert, -as has been done recently<a id='r833' /><a href='#f833' class='c014'><sup>[833]</sup></a>, that Herodotus <em>knew</em> nothing about a -coinage issued by Pheidon is to beg the question.</p> - -<p class='c007'>To the fifth century Greek, for whom Herodotus wrote, the -origin of the system of weights on which the Aeginetan coins were -struck may have been of greater interest than the remoter question -of an invention which they doubtless all took for granted. Peloponnesian -weights and measures stood for the lack of standardization -in all matters metrical from which Herodotus and his hearers must -have suffered daily.</p> - -<p class='c007'>There is no need to pursue these criticisms in further detail. -They start with various assumptions as to Pheidon’s date. Some of -them would be found to be mutually destructive. Nearly all of -them overestimate the difficulties raised by the apparent lack of -confirmation of Ephorus in earlier writers. It is by no means -certain that his statements about Pheidon’s connexion with the -Aeginetan coinage must be a fanciful expansion of Herodotus <span class='fss'>VI.</span> -127. There are in fact two lines of evidence that point in quite -the opposite direction. One of them rests on notices about the -Argive Heraeum supplemented by recent finds on the site; the -other is based on a new interpretation of a passage in the fifth book -<span class='pageno' id='Page_162'>162</span>of Herodotus. It will be necessary to examine in some detail the -evidence from these two sources.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>A. Evidence from the Argive Heraeum.</div> - -<p class='c007'>In the famous temple of Hera, the Argive Heraeum, that lies -between Argos and Mycenae, there was preserved -a dedication that was said to have been made by -Pheidon in commemoration of his coinage. The -notice is preserved only in the mediaeval <cite><span lang="fr" xml:lang="fr">Etymologicum Magnum</span></cite>. It -runs: “Pheidon the Argive was the first of all men to strike a -coinage in Aegina, and on account of this coinage he called in the -spits (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ὀβελίσκοι</span>) and dedicated them to the Hera of Argos.” There -is nothing suspicious in this notice. The word drachma means a -handful, and according to Plutarch a drachma is a handful of obols -(spits or nails), which in early times were used as money<a id='r834' /><a href='#f834' class='c014'><sup>[834]</sup></a>. In modern -times nails are said to have served as a coinage in both Scotland and -France<a id='r835' /><a href='#f835' class='c014'><sup>[835]</sup></a>. Plenty of evidence is to be found in antiquity for offerings -of disused objects to the gods<a id='r836' /><a href='#f836' class='c014'><sup>[836]</sup></a>. The ultimate source for the statement -of the <cite>Etymologicum Magnum</cite> may well be the official guide -at the Heraeum itself. Temple traditions are not always above -suspicion. All the same the indications of a Pheidon tradition -<span class='pageno' id='Page_163'>163</span>preserved in the Argive Heraeum are valuable, because they show -a source from which Ephorus -might very well have supplemented -Herodotus far older and more valuable -than his own imagination.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id005'> -<img src='images/i_p163.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic002'> -<p>Fig. 21. Bundle of spits found in the Argive Heraeum.</p> -</div> -</div> - -<p class='c007'>This however does not end the -evidence of the Argive Heraeum. -Some thirty years ago the site was -excavated by the American School -of Archaeology at Athens. Among -the finds was a bundle of iron spits -or rods about four feet long (fig. 21) -which Svoronos<a id='r837' /><a href='#f837' class='c014'><sup>[837]</sup></a> has plausibly associated -with the <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ὀβελίσκοι</span> of the -<cite>Etymologicum Magnum</cite>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The Americans ascribed the -foundation of the Heraeum to the -Mycenaean period, so that the -dedication of the spits could be put -anywhere in the three centuries -that form the limit of controversy -as to Pheidon’s date. But more -recently this dating has been shown -to be mistaken by the Germans -who excavated Tiryns. Whole -series of miniature vessels which -the Argive Heraeum excavators -had regarded as Mycenaean were -shown by the Tiryns excavators -to be seventh century or later, and -when one of them, Frickenhaus, -visited the Argive Heraeum, he -found fragments of Geometric and -proto-Corinthian pottery in positions which proved the sherds to -be older than the temple foundations. From this fact he argues -conclusively that the abundant series of dedications at the Heraeum -<span class='pageno' id='Page_164'>164</span>begin in the seventh century. Pheidon’s <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ὀβελίσκοι</span> cannot therefore -go further back than that<a id='r838' /><a href='#f838' class='c014'><sup>[838]</sup></a>. The Mycenaean objects from the -Argive Heraeum site must all come from a small secular settlement -that preceded the temple. The latter becomes possibly contemporary -with Pheidon himself.</p> - -<p class='c007'>This is a fact of possible significance. It suggests that the -Heraeum may have been the religious centre of Pheidon’s imperial -policy, a sort of religious federal capital carefully placed away from -the chief cities of the Argolid much as the federal capital of Australia -has been placed away from the capitals of the various Australian -states. It looks indeed as though the analogy may have been -closer still, and that Pheidon was the builder of his federal -capital. If so his date was some time, probably early, in the -seventh century.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>B. Fresh evidence from Herodotus.</div> - -<p class='c007'>This ends the evidence of the Heraeum and brings me to the -most important section of my argument. We have -just seen how little need there is to mistrust Ephorus -simply because he does not exactly reproduce Herodotus. -All the same the earlier writer is of course by far the more -reliable. The account of Pheidon’s coinage in Aegina would gain -enormously in credibility if any evidence for it could be found in -the pages of Herodotus.

Then -the Aeginetans, having built triremes and made themselves -masters of the sea<a id='r841' /><a href='#f841' class='c014'><sup>[841]</sup></a>, revolted. Through their revolt they got -embroiled with the Athenians, who had at that time very close -relations with Epidaurus. At the suggestion of the Epidaurians, the -Athenians sailed against Aegina. The Aeginetans appealed to Argos, -and with the help of an Argive force that crossed undetected from -Epidaurus, utterly defeated the Athenians in a land battle on the -island. The various measures<a id='r842' /><a href='#f842' class='c014'><sup>[842]</sup></a> taken in common by the Aeginetans -and the Argives immediately after the war suggest that Aegina, -when she had revolted from Epidaurus, became in some sort a -confederate, or possibly a subject, of Argos<a id='r843' /><a href='#f843' class='c014'><sup>[843]</sup></a>.

The crushing defeat that the -Athenians sustained may have been due to the collapse of her -Epidaurian allies.</p> - -<p class='c007'>One further point about Herodotus’ narrative should be noticed. -There is nothing in it to suggest that at the time when the Aeginetans -revolted from the Epidaurians, either of them was dependent on -Argos.

On the contrary, his narrative -hangs excellently together as a description of successive and correlated -incidents in a single struggle. Not only so, but even if the -invasion be separated from the revolt, it is difficult to believe that -it occurred after 590. So crushing a defeat for the Athenians, who -themselves admitted that only one of their number got back to -Attica<a id='r850' /><a href='#f850' class='c014'><sup>[850]</sup></a>, could hardly have taken place in the time of Solon or -Peisistratus without being associated with their names. After all, -a fair amount is known about sixth century Athens. There are no -traces of any such overwhelming disaster, or of the inevitable set -back that would have followed it. The relations of Athens to Argos -during the period seem to have been friendly rather than the reverse. -Peisistratus had Argive mercenaries, not to speak of an Argive -wife<a id='r851' /><a href='#f851' class='c014'><sup>[851]</sup></a>. Argive support of Peisistratus is of course quite consistent -with hostility to the government that Peisistratus overthrew. It has -indeed been suggested<a id='r852' /><a href='#f852' class='c014'><sup>[852]</sup></a> that the Aeginetan expedition took place -while Peisistratus was in exile. But, apart from the entire absence -of evidence, and all the other difficulties involved by a sixth century -<span class='pageno' id='Page_167'>167</span>date, this suggestion means that Peisistratus sought a bodyguard -and wife in the most unpopular quarter imaginable, hardly a -probable proceeding on the part of a ruler so tactful and popular -as Peisistratus must have been.</p> - -<p class='c007'>A date late in the seventh century is rendered unlikely by what -is known of Procles of Epidaurus<a id='r853' /><a href='#f853' class='c014'><sup>[853]</sup></a>, the father-in-law of Periander, -who ruled Epidaurus during the last part of the seventh century<a id='r854' /><a href='#f854' class='c014'><sup>[854]</sup></a>, -apparently as a dependent of the Corinthian tyrant, by whom he -was eventually deposed.

But he states that it was -observed by Argives as well as by Aeginetans, which points to the -<span class='pageno' id='Page_168'>168</span>possibility that the practice prevailed in Argos as well as Aegina. -Macan goes as far as to suggest that it is an “understatement and -pseudo-explanation of a measure or custom for the protection of -native ware from Attic competition<a id='r859' /><a href='#f859' class='c014'><sup>[859]</sup></a>.” The other measures recorded -in this connexion, the changes in Attic dress and in Peloponnesian -brooches, support Macan’s suggestion. But in the matter of dating -he follows earlier writers who, using very inadequate material, -came to conclusions which can now be shown to be improbable. -They date this embargo in the middle of the sixth century. But in -Aegina at any rate Attic pottery continued to be imported throughout -the second half of the sixth century, while in Argos, where the -evidence is less decisive and abundant, there is no sign of a cessation -of Attic imports about 550 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> On the other hand both in Argos -and Aegina there does appear to be an abrupt cessation of Attic -imports early in the seventh century. As, further, the general history -of Greek pottery shows that an Argive-Aeginetan embargo on -Attic pottery would have had a strong commercial motive early -in the seventh century and none in the middle of the sixth, there is -a strong presumption that the date of the embargo was not the -middle of the sixth century but somewhere about the beginning -of the seventh.

To accept the 750 date -for Pheidon sets him right in relation to Archias, but leaves the -rest of the story in the air. There is indeed always the refuge of -assuming a double banishment of the Bacchiads. But the idea of a -double banishment, traces of which might easily be discovered by -the reduplicating school of historians, is deservedly suspect, and may -have arisen from a double dating due to double dating of Pheidon. -If there really were two banishments, the story better suits the -second.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Neither Plutarch nor the Scholiast on Apollonius gives any -absolute dates; and those of the Parian Marble, which does, are -impossible.

Archias, who had founded -Syracuse in 734, gave him support. We are told no details, but the -alliances of the period of the second Messenian war and the naval -struggle in the Saronic Gulf must have supplied abundant motives -and inducements. Bacchiad government under Argive protection -continued till Pheidon fell, which meant also the fall of the Bacchiads -themselves. They withdrew to the far west. Demaratus penetrated -as far as Tarquinii. Large numbers doubtless settled at Syracuse. -The order of events just outlined coincides entirely with the extant -narratives, except in the one matter of Syracuse, and there the -divergence is very comprehensible. The founder of Syracuse had -supported Pheidon. Pheidon’s fall had led to a great influx of -pro-Argive Corinthians into Syracuse, and threw Archias back -entirely onto his Sicilian colony. If this is what really happened, it -would not be surprising if the fall of Pheidon came to be regarded -as having led to the original foundation of Syracuse.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Pheidon of Corinth: is he identical with the Argive?</div> - -<p class='c007'>The chief doubt however as to the historical truth of the Argive -tyrant’s interference in Corinth is caused by certain -references to a Corinthian Pheidon, described by -Aristotle as “one of the earliest lawgivers<a id='r935' /><a href='#f935' class='c014'><sup>[935]</sup></a>.” When -an Argive Pheidon is reported as making his appearance -in Corinthian history, is it a mistake due to the confusing -of two separate personalities? If two existed, they were unquestionably -confused. A Pindar Scholiast says that “a certain Pheidon, -a man of Corinth, invented measures and weights<a id='r936' /><a href='#f936' class='c014'><sup>[936]</sup></a>.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>But there is an alternative possibility. The Corinthian Pheidon -may be only one aspect of the Argive: this is suggested by the Pindar -Scholiast later in the same ode, where he says that “the Pheidon -who first struck their measures (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">κόψας τὸ μέτρον</span>) for the Corinthians -was an Argive<a id='r937' /><a href='#f937' class='c014'><sup>[937]</sup></a>.” Too much stress must not be laid on such very -confused statements<a id='r938' /><a href='#f938' class='c014'><sup>[938]</sup></a>. At best they can only corroborate other and -<span class='pageno' id='Page_183'>183</span>better evidence. This however is not altogether lacking. When -Karanos, the kinsman of Pheidon, went to Macedonia and occupied -Edessa and the lands of the Argeadae<a id='r939' /><a href='#f939' class='c014'><sup>[939]</sup></a>, Bacchiads from Corinth -settled near by among the Lynkestai<a id='r940' /><a href='#f940' class='c014'><sup>[940]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>A lawgiver who was “one of the earliest” can have arisen in -Corinth only before the establishment of the tyranny in 657 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> -On the other hand lawgivers seem to have been mainly a seventh -century phenomenon in Greece, and the most natural time for one -to have been appointed in Corinth is when the Bacchiad nobility -was losing its ascendancy, a process which may be imagined as -beginning early in the seventh century or at the end of the eighth. -Plutarch describes Pheidon’s designs on Corinth as formed at the -beginning of his career. Everything points to the Argive tyrant -having had a long reign. There is nothing improbable in the supposition -that the rival factions in Corinth invited to act as their lawgiver -a young sovereign of unusual ability who ruled a city of great -traditions but not at the time particularly powerful<a id='r941' /><a href='#f941' class='c014'><sup>[941]</sup></a>.

In any case, as observed by How and -Wells<a id='r992' /><a href='#f992' class='c014'><sup>[992]</sup></a>, Eetion belonged to the pre-Dorian “Aeolic” population -of Corinth<a id='r993' /><a href='#f993' class='c014'><sup>[993]</sup></a>. The Bacchiad aristocracy was extremely exclusive. -Its members married only among themselves. Consequently the -official oracles prophesied evil from this union, and when a son was -born of it, the government sent agents to destroy the child. But -<span class='pageno' id='Page_194'>194</span>the infant melted the hearts of its would-be murderers, and instead -of killing it they went back and reported that they had done so. -The infant was sent away by its parents to Olympia, and was -brought up first there and then at Cleonae. Encouraged by a -Delphic oracle Cypselus returned to Corinth, became very popular, -was elected polemarch, and made himself still more popular by -refusing to imprison citizens and remitting in all cases his part of -their fines. Finally he headed a rising against the unpopular Bacchiads, -killed Patrokleides, who was king at the time, and was made -king in his stead. He ruled mildly, neither maintaining a bodyguard -nor losing the people’s favour<a id='r994' /><a href='#f994' class='c014'><sup>[994]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Such is the account given by Nicholas of Damascus. For the -greater part of it we have no earlier authority. But once more we -must be on our guard against too hasty scepticism. Ephorus, who -is generally admitted to have been the source of this account, was -not further removed from Cypselus than this age is from Cromwell. -Cypselus was the foremost man of his age in all Greece. We need -to be very sceptical of such scepticism as that of Busolt<a id='r995' /><a href='#f995' class='c014'><sup>[995]</sup></a>, who argues -that Cypselus cannot have been polemarch before he became tyrant -because if his parentage was not known he would not have been -eligible, while if it was he would not have been elected<a id='r996' /><a href='#f996' class='c014'><sup>[996]</sup></a>. As pointed -out many years ago by Wilisch<a id='r997' /><a href='#f997' class='c014'><sup>[997]</sup></a>, such arguments are dangerous -when applied to times of which so little is known. The aristocracy -which fell in 657 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> may have begun to totter some time earlier. -Given the requisite gaps in our knowledge, Busolt’s line of argument -might be equally well used to discredit the received tradition -about the Victorian age in England on the ground that it contains -the highly improbable statement that the leader of the aristocratic -party was an Italian Jew.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Ephorus seems to have been used by Aristotle<a id='r998' /><a href='#f998' class='c014'><sup>[998]</sup></a>. It would be -rash indeed to follow Busolt<a id='r999' /><a href='#f999' class='c014'><sup>[999]</sup></a> and agree that such a source may yet -be valueless. Aristotle is not to be treated in this way. The whole -<span class='pageno' id='Page_195'>195</span>character of his work forces us to start with the assumption that he -had some idea of the difference between myth and historical tradition. -We always know the reasons why modern scholars are sometimes -inclined to discredit him. We do not always know the reasons that -led Aristotle to accept as facts what he so accepts. What we do -know is that the material on which he based his statements was far -more ample than that which is now at our disposal. Even for a -period so comparatively remote from him as the seventh century -<span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> Aristotle must have been able to collect much evidence of one -sort or another to confirm him alike in his doubts and his beliefs<a id='r1000' /><a href='#f1000' class='c014'><sup>[1000]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>For eighth century Corinth Aristotle and his contemporaries -probably<a id='r1001' /><a href='#f1001' class='c014'><sup>[1001]</sup></a> had the poems of the Corinthian Eumelos, a <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ποιητὴς -ἱστορικός</span><a id='r1002' /><a href='#f1002' class='c014'><sup>[1002]</sup></a> who flourished about 750 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> and wrote among other -works an epic called <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Κορινθιακά</span>. A prose history of Corinth -(<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Κορινθία συγγραφή</span>) was also ascribed to him. The ascription is -doubted by Pausanias<a id='r1003' /><a href='#f1003' class='c014'><sup>[1003]</sup></a>, not without reason, but it may still have -been a document of some value and antiquity. The same is true -of the “didactic poem in two thousand lines” ascribed by Diogenes -Laertius to Periander himself<a id='r1004' /><a href='#f1004' class='c014'><sup>[1004]</sup></a>. We are learning to take our ancient -records more on their face value than was done by our grandfathers -in the nineteenth century. The classical historians, using the word -in its widest sense, are still suffering from the reaction against the -doctrine of verbal inspiration.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The story of the infant Cypselus is put by Plutarch<a id='r1005' /><a href='#f1005' class='c014'><sup>[1005]</sup></a> into the -mouth of a certain “Chersias the poet,” who is represented as having -during a banquet given by Periander “mentioned others whose lives -<span class='pageno' id='Page_196'>196</span>had been saved when despaired of and in particular Cypselus the -father of Periander.” One of the sceptics<a id='r1006' /><a href='#f1006' class='c014'><sup>[1006]</sup></a> has recently accepted this -Chersias as historical and imagined Plutarch as here making use of -a poem of his which he proceeds to explain as a fiction invented to -give an appearance of legitimacy to the Cypselids. The explanation -is quite gratuitous. It is true that Diogenes Laertius<a id='r1007' /><a href='#f1007' class='c014'><sup>[1007]</sup></a> speaks of -Periander as “of the race of the Heraclids.” But Chersias in Plutarch -does not mention even the parents of Cypselus, much less his remote -ancestors, and there is no evidence that he had them in mind<a id='r1008' /><a href='#f1008' class='c014'><sup>[1008]</sup></a>. -The poem itself is a doubtful item. The only inference to be drawn -from Plutarch is that to his readers the poem (assuming its existence) -probably seemed in keeping with the scene. It is however well to -be reminded that even Plutarch had much more literary material -to draw from for this early period than have the moderns.</p> - -<p class='c007'>On the whole therefore the safest attitude towards the narrative -of Nicolaus will be one of benevolent agnosticism. No doubt he -had a tendency to rationalize half or wholly mythical stories. It is -not improbable that he did this to some extent in his account of -the infant Cypselus with which we can compare the version of -Herodotus. But when he makes a simple statement of commonplace -fact, as, for instance, that Cypselus was polemarch before he -became tyrant, the most prudent and the most critical course is to -accept it as probably true<a id='r1009' /><a href='#f1009' class='c014'><sup>[1009]</sup></a>. The reason why the record of this fact -was preserved is not far to seek. The fourth century historians -seized on the name as evidence that Cypselus was in fact as well as -in name a ruler of the same order as Dionysius, who started his -career as a military demagogue. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>but that is no -evidence of -military power. -Cypselus cannot -have been -a military -despot.<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -But the context -shows that the polemarch was not in this case a -military officer<a id='r1010' /><a href='#f1010' class='c014'><sup>[1010]</sup></a>, and we know by implication that -Cypselus was not a warlike person, for the record of -how Periander changed the character of the government -goes on to say that he <em>became</em><a id='r1011' /><a href='#f1011' class='c014'><sup>[1011]</sup></a> warlike. And, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_197'>197</span>as remarked long ago by Schubring<a id='r1012' /><a href='#f1012' class='c014'><sup>[1012]</sup></a>, if the tenure of the polemarchy -is historical, still it was not the means by which Cypselus reached -the tyranny, but rather like the murder of the Bacchiad Patrokleides, -a sign and token that he was already in a position to seize it. -<span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>What then was -the basis of -his power? -The only possible -evidence -is to be found -in the story<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -Nicolaus therefore brings us little nearer to understanding -the basis of the future tyrant’s power. Our -only hope of doing this lies in Herodotus, who tells -the story of the infant Cypselus with certain details -omitted by Nicolaus but which probably contain -the essence of the story. According to Herodotus<a id='r1013' /><a href='#f1013' class='c014'><sup>[1013]</sup></a> -Cypselus was the child from the cypsele in which as an infant his -mother had concealed him from his would-be murderers. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>which makes -Cypselus the -child from the -cypsele.<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -If we -are to believe Plutarch, the story of the cypsele could -still in his days be traced back to the days of Periander<a id='r1014' /><a href='#f1014' class='c014'><sup>[1014]</sup></a>. -It is easy to point out<a id='r1015' /><a href='#f1015' class='c014'><sup>[1015]</sup></a> that we are here up against -a widespread story of which different versions have -been attached to such different names as Sargon of Akkad (<em>c.</em> 3800 -<span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span><a id='r1016' /><a href='#f1016' class='c014'><sup>[1016]</sup></a>), Moses, Romulus and Cyrus<a id='r1017' /><a href='#f1017' class='c014'><sup>[1017]</sup></a>. But even if we accept a common -origin for all these stories, we are not very much further on. We -should still have to determine why and how Cypselus found a place -in the series. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>What is a cypsele? -Not, in -spite of some -ancient and -modern authorities, -either -an ark or a -wooden chest.<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -But it must not be too hastily assumed that the -cypsele of Cypselus has anything at all to do with -the ark that Pharaoh’s daughter found on the banks -of the Nile<a id='r1018' /><a href='#f1018' class='c014'><sup>[1018]</sup></a> or the “alueus” discovered by the -shepherd Faustulus on the banks of the Tiber. In -both these cases<a id='r1019' /><a href='#f1019' class='c014'><sup>[1019]</sup></a> the vessel could float and was discovered -by a river side. Cypselus was not discovered. -<span class='pageno' id='Page_198'>198</span>That is the whole point of the story. He was not exposed -in a river or sea like Romulus or Perseus. And it is more than -doubtful whether a cypsele has any connexion whatever with -an alueus or ark. It is true that they are more or less identified -by our ancient authorities. Pausanias<a id='r1020' /><a href='#f1020' class='c014'><sup>[1020]</sup></a>, who wrote his guide to -Greece in the second century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">A.D.</span></span>, professed to have seen at Olympia -the very cypsele in which Cypselus had been hidden and from which -he was said to have got his name. It was a coffer (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">λάρναξ</span>) of wood -and ivory elaborately carved. The description leaves no doubt that -it was of archaic Corinthian workmanship of the time of the tyrants -or not much later<a id='r1021' /><a href='#f1021' class='c014'><sup>[1021]</sup></a>. But it is extremely doubtful whether this carved -box was a cypsele or had any original connexion with the cypsele -story. Plato<a id='r1022' /><a href='#f1022' class='c014'><sup>[1022]</sup></a>, Aristotle<a id='r1023' /><a href='#f1023' class='c014'><sup>[1023]</sup></a>, and Plutarch<a id='r1024' /><a href='#f1024' class='c014'><sup>[1024]</sup></a> all refer to the dedications -of the house of Cypselus without alluding to this object. Herodotus -says nothing about the cypsele having been dedicated. For Strabo<a id='r1025' /><a href='#f1025' class='c014'><sup>[1025]</sup></a> -the chief dedication of Cypselus was a “golden hammered Zeus.” -Dio Chrysostom<a id='r1026' /><a href='#f1026' class='c014'><sup>[1026]</sup></a> (about 100 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">A.D.</span></span>) refers to what Pausanias calls -the cypsele of Cypselus, but describes it simply as the “wooden -box (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ξυλινὴ κιβωτός</span>) dedicated by Cypselus.” From Pausanias -himself it is plain that the object was not by any means what the -Greeks of his time understood by a cypsele. His statement<a id='r1027' /><a href='#f1027' class='c014'><sup>[1027]</sup></a> that -the ancient Corinthians called a coffer a cypsele raises a suspicion -that nobody else ever did.

If in Dionysius<a id='r1179' /><a href='#f1179' class='c014'><sup>[1179]</sup></a> on another occasion Collatinus -is made to argue “that it was not the tyrants’ money that had -been harming the city, but their persons,” the protestation only -shows that there were others who did not share this view, but thought -rather, with Dionysius’ Marcus Valerius, that there was a danger -lest the people, “beguiled by the tyrant’s benevolences, ... should -help to restore Tarquin to the throne<a id='r1180' /><a href='#f1180' class='c014'><sup>[1180]</sup></a>.” The same view is implied -in a speech put by Dionysius<a id='r1181' /><a href='#f1181' class='c014'><sup>[1181]</sup></a> into the mouth of one of the popular -leaders at the time of the first secession. He reminds his hearers -that “the people were never put to any disadvantage by the kings, -and least of all by the last ones”: he recalls an occasion on which -the king had “distributed five minae of silver to every man,” and -reminds the patricians how the plebeians had rejected the great -gifts that the banished Tarquins had offered them as an inducement -to break faith with the patrician government.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It may well have been from similar fears that in the following -year the remainder of the Tarquins’ property was distributed among -the people: “(bona regia) deripienda plebi sunt data<a id='r1182' /><a href='#f1182' class='c014'><sup>[1182]</sup></a>.” A few -chapters later Livy states that so long as the banished Tarquin was -still alive, the people received from the senate “multa blandimenta<a id='r1183' /><a href='#f1183' class='c014'><sup>[1183]</sup></a>.” -The nobles are described by Dionysius as “taking many measures -friendly to the poor, that they might not go over to the tyrants -and be won over by considerations of personal gain and betray -the commonwealth<a id='r1184' /><a href='#f1184' class='c014'><sup>[1184]</sup></a>.” The senate seems to have been fighting the -Tarquins with their own weapons.

Twice in two centuries the Danish invaders -sweep over England after the death of a king Aethelred. -Both times there is a campaign on the Berkshire Downs. The -decisive battle is fought in the first case at Ashdown, in the second -at Essendune, which is palpably a mere variation of the same name. -In each case the conquest is succeeded by the reign of a Saxon -Edward. The second Edward is admitted by tradition to have been -less concerned with royalty than with religion<a id='r1223' /><a href='#f1223' class='c014'><sup>[1223]</sup></a>. The first will be -shown in a moment to have been the son of a god. Elder as applied -to the first Edward is neither more nor less suspicious than Priscus -as applied to Tarquin. This simple device of duplication probably -explains the story of Alfred in Athelney. It is a reflexion backwards -of the story, possibly historical, of Hereward’s exploits in the similar -swampy fastness of Ely.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The one legend that remains inextricably associated with Alfred -is that of the cakes. Alfred the fugitive in his Arician grove<a id='r1224' /><a href='#f1224' class='c014'><sup>[1224]</sup></a> at -Athelney is made known to his followers only after the burning of -the cakes. The inference is obvious. Alfred is a vegetation deity -of the same order as Demeter, the wandering goddess who was -found by the mistress of the house where she sought refuge burning -not cakes but Triptolemus the corn god himself<a id='r1225' /><a href='#f1225' class='c014'><sup>[1225]</sup></a>. The mistress of -<span class='pageno' id='Page_239'>239</span>the house appears also in the Alfred myth. But in other ways, and -especially in the recognition scene, the story has been obviously -contaminated by Christian influence<a id='r1226' /><a href='#f1226' class='c014'><sup>[1226]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>So far therefore from dismissing the cake story from Alfred’s -history, we find that it is the very essence of the legend. In fact, -when we recall such divinities as Dionysus Botrys, Dionysus the -Grape, we must be tempted to wonder whether king Alfred and -his cakes are not one and the same divinity.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>The Greek Demaratus has been regarded as a Greek fiction:</div> - -<p class='c007'>The introduction of the Greek Demaratus into the Tarquin -story has sometimes been regarded with extreme -suspicion. For the late Professor Pelham it seems to -have been a proof that Tarquin was merely Herodotus -translated into Latin. He uses it as such in -a handbook on Roman history<a id='r1227' /><a href='#f1227' class='c014'><sup>[1227]</sup></a>. Even if only the literary records -are considered Pelham’s inference if not unreasonable is certainly -rash. The story of the voyage of Demaratus stands on quite a -different footing from the long speech put by Dionysius into the -mouth of Brutus, in which the founder of the Roman republic is -made to quote the double kingship at Sparta as a precedent for the -double consulship<a id='r1228' /><a href='#f1228' class='c014'><sup>[1228]</sup></a>. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>but there is -nothing improbable -about -the narrative,<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -Brutus’ speech is palpable fiction. -The Demaratus story on the other hand may indeed -have been borrowed from that of Philip the son of -Butacides, who in the last quarter of the sixth century -fled from Croton “with his own trireme and a crew of his own -employees<a id='r1229' /><a href='#f1229' class='c014'><sup>[1229]</sup></a>” and sailed first to Cyrene and then with Dorieus the -Spartan to Sicily, where they tried to establish a settlement but -were killed by the Phoenicians and Egestaeans. But if on other -and independent grounds we find reason for thinking that the story -of Demaratus’ voyage in the seventh century<a id='r1230' /><a href='#f1230' class='c014'><sup>[1230]</sup></a> is in the main outline -historical, then we may reasonably find a confirmation of it in the -well attested facts of Philip’s adventures in the century following, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_240'>240</span>in the statement<a id='r1231' /><a href='#f1231' class='c014'><sup>[1231]</sup></a> that Caere, the Southern neighbour of Tarquinii, -contained a Greek element at the time of the Tarquins<a id='r1232' /><a href='#f1232' class='c014'><sup>[1232]</sup></a>, and further -in the fact that Demaratus is made to quit Corinth at a time when -we have the authority of Herodotus<a id='r1233' /><a href='#f1233' class='c014'><sup>[1233]</sup></a> for believing that many -prominent Corinthians were being driven to quit their city. The -migration of the Tarquins from Tarquinii to Rome corresponds -with the Etrusco-Carthaginian alliance against the Greeks of which -the best remembered fact is the subsequent disaster that overtook -the Phocaeans in Corsica in 536 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> When the Tarquins are -banished from Rome they flee to the Greek city of Cumae, while -the Romans who have banished them proceed to make an alliance -with Carthage<a id='r1234' /><a href='#f1234' class='c014'><sup>[1234]</sup></a>. All through the Tarquin narrative we may discern -a strictly historical background that fully explains their comings -and goings. The same may of course be said of countless heroes of -modern historical romances. But in these historical romances the -fictitious characters seldom play the leading political part that is -played by the tyrant kings of the Tarquin dynasty.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The evidence of institutions also tends rather against the sceptics. -Cicero notes that the organization which Tarquinius Priscus was -said to have introduced for maintaining the Roman cavalry was the -same in principle as that which had once prevailed in Corinth<a id='r1235' /><a href='#f1235' class='c014'><sup>[1235]</sup></a>. The -sceptics may indeed argue that the Corinthian character of the -Roman practice was the reason why it was attributed to the son -of Demaratus.

Unless the -Corinthian pottery found in such distant regions as Etruria has -distinct local peculiarities, it is generally assumed to have been -imported from Greece.

If Corinthian potters went to Etruria, it is -hard to see how we are to distinguish the vases they made before -leaving home from those that they produced afterwards. The -question whether the characteristic pale clay of the Corinthian -pottery is to be found in Central Italy does not arise.

But there are several reasons why this military -aspect should not be overrated. The account of how Orthagoras -actually seized the tyranny is after all wanting.

With -Cleisthenes the Sicyonian tyranny entered on a new phase.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Aristotle quotes Sicyon as an instance of a city where the government -changed “from tyranny to tyranny ... from that of Myron -to that of Cleisthenes<a id='r1304' /><a href='#f1304' class='c014'><sup>[1304]</sup></a>.” The story of how Cleisthenes got his two -brothers out of the way is told by Nicolaus Damascenus<a id='r1305' /><a href='#f1305' class='c014'><sup>[1305]</sup></a>. But what -Nicolaus gives is purely a tale of domestic crime, a change from -tyrant to tyrant not from tyranny to tyranny. Perhaps the change -referred to by Aristotle is to be connected with the fact that -Cleisthenes followed an aggressive foreign policy<a id='r1306' /><a href='#f1306' class='c014'><sup>[1306]</sup></a>. He was violently -<span class='pageno' id='Page_259'>259</span>hostile to Argos<a id='r1307' /><a href='#f1307' class='c014'><sup>[1307]</sup></a>, and took a leading part in the “sacred” war that -was fought about Delphi at the beginning of the sixth century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span><a id='r1308' /><a href='#f1308' class='c014'><sup>[1308]</sup></a>. -He was a contemporary of Periander who appears to have changed -the character of the tyranny at Corinth by making the government -warlike. It is not unlikely that the change effected by Cleisthenes -at Sicyon was in the same direction. In turning to war it does not -follow that he forsook trade. He may have held the view that -trade follows the flag. The “sacred” war had its secular side. It -arose about the refusal of the people of Krisa, who possessed the -port of Delphi, to remove their harbour dues.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Krisa was a place of importance in early times<a id='r1309' /><a href='#f1309' class='c014'><sup>[1309]</sup></a>, so much so that -what was later known as the Gulf of Corinth was called the Gulf -of Krisa. The territory of the Krisaians lay just opposite Sicyon, -and it seems not improbable that the Sicyonians, with their allies -the Corinthians<a id='r1310' /><a href='#f1310' class='c014'><sup>[1310]</sup></a>, aimed at wresting from their rivals across the -water their position in the gulf which was the starting-point of -trade with the far West<a id='r1311' /><a href='#f1311' class='c014'><sup>[1311]</sup></a>.

It looks very much as though -Cleisthenes was trying to win for Sicyon the sea-borne trade that -had been flowing into Krisa. With the aid of a fleet that must -for the time have made Sicyon a really important naval power<a id='r1313' /><a href='#f1313' class='c014'><sup>[1313]</sup></a> -he crushes the trade rival across the water and wins its place for -his own city and himself<a id='r1314' /><a href='#f1314' class='c014'><sup>[1314]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Bury assigns to Cleisthenes the leading part in the reorganizing -of the Pythian games at Delphi after the Sacred War<a id='r1315' /><a href='#f1315' class='c014'><sup>[1315]</sup></a>, and pictures -the Sicyonian tyrant as doing for the Delphic Pythia much what -Periander and Peisistratus are depicted as doing for the Corinthian -Isthmia and the Athenian Panathenaia and Pheidon very possibly -did for the great games at Olympia. Bury’s general picture of the -early tyrants as founders or reorganizers of these great Greek games -is quite in harmony with the chronological evidence and with all -that is known about the various tyrants’ activities and characters<a id='r1316' /><a href='#f1316' class='c014'><sup>[1316]</sup></a>. -Developing these games might well be part of a broad commercial -policy, the more so as the games were under divine patronage and -<span class='pageno' id='Page_261'>261</span>ensured periodic opportunities for peaceful intercourse in an age of -chronic warfare<a id='r1317' /><a href='#f1317' class='c014'><sup>[1317]</sup></a>. Under such circumstances gatherings of this kind -naturally tend to become the “commercial affair (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐμπορικὸν -πρᾶγμα</span>)” that the Delian festival admittedly grew to be<a id='r1318' /><a href='#f1318' class='c014'><sup>[1318]</sup></a>. Everything -known about the early Greek tyrants shows how capable they -were of turning such a tendency to good account. That Delphi in -particular had from early times a commercial character has already -been conjectured by Cornford<a id='r1319' /><a href='#f1319' class='c014'><sup>[1319]</sup></a>. In the early years of the Sicyonian -tyranny the greatness of the Euboean cities Chalcis and Eretria had -begun to be steadily on the decline. The time had come to change -the course of the Eastern part of this great trade route and instead of -Krisa, Delphi, Thebes, Euboea to substitute another line, in which -Sicyon and probably Athens should be dominating points. This is -probably what Cleisthenes had in view when he so strongly supported -Solon in the Sacred War.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It follows that to make him the founder of the Delphic Pythia -is a view that cannot be accepted without reservations. The available -evidence represents Cleisthenes as rather the rival than the champion -of Delphi. A Pindar scholiast already quoted states that he instituted -Pythian games in his own Sicyon. There is no other evidence for -Pythian games at Sicyon, but Herodotus gives a long account of -the way in which Cleisthenes radically reformed the chief existing -festival in the city. This festival, like the Delphic Pythia of the -days before the Sacred War, was devoted largely to musical and -poetical competitions. Its patron was the ancient hero Adrastus, -whose connexions were all with Argos, the Dorian city whose -influence in Sicyon Cleisthenes was bent on overthrowing. Cleisthenes -ejected Adrastus from Sicyon by the curious process of -burying beside him the body of his bitterest enemy, the Theban -<span class='pageno' id='Page_262'>262</span>Melanippus (which he borrowed for the purpose from Thebes), -and then removing the body of Adrastus which was assumed to -depart voluntarily from so unpleasant a neighbourhood.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The reformed festival was held in honour of this Theban hero -and the Theban wine god Dionysus. The ejected Adrastus had -been one of the leaders in the famous expedition of the Seven against -Thebes<a id='r1320' /><a href='#f1320' class='c014'><sup>[1320]</sup></a>. There can be little doubt that when the festival was -instituted Cleisthenes was aiming at an entente with the great inland -city that formed the first main stage on the route from Delphi to -Euboea and the North. But the attempt was a failure. Thebes was -conspicuously unrepresented at the wooing of Cleisthenes’ daughter -Agariste<a id='r1321' /><a href='#f1321' class='c014'><sup>[1321]</sup></a>, and the tyrant is furious when one of the suitors performs -what has plausibly been suggested to have been a Theban dance<a id='r1322' /><a href='#f1322' class='c014'><sup>[1322]</sup></a>. -Relations with Delphi may have run a similar course. In the first -celebration of the reformed Delphian Pythia Cleisthenes competed; -and the way that he approached the Delphic oracle before reorganizing -his own Sicyonian festival shows that he wanted an understanding -with the authorities there, to whom his family was perhaps -largely indebted for its throne<a id='r1323' /><a href='#f1323' class='c014'><sup>[1323]</sup></a>. But the oracle would have nothing -to do with Cleisthenes’ proposals and used abusive language to the -tyrant for making them. Relations between the god and the tyrant -can hardly have remained cordial after this incident and the -Thebans presumably sided with the god.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Whatever the precise outcome of Cleisthenes’ policy with Delphi -and Thebes the likelihood remains that one main object of that -policy had been to give a new direction to the city’s trade. We have -been assuming that the Sicyon of the tyrants was an important -centre of commerce and industry. This has been denied by Eduard -Meyer<a id='r1324' /><a href='#f1324' class='c014'><sup>[1324]</sup></a>. The evidence is meagre: but as far as it goes it is entirely -against Meyer’s hypothesis, which makes it hard to explain how -<span class='pageno' id='Page_263'>263</span>the city became so great and prosperous at this time. We have seen -already that Cleisthenes possessed a powerful fleet and that his -proceedings suggest far-reaching commercial designs. The evidence -as to industry points in the same direction. Some distinguished -archaeologists have actually assigned to the Sicyon of Andreas and -Orthagoras one of the leading industries of the period, the making -of the remarkably fine pottery now usually known as Proto-Corinthian. -Their arguments are by no means decisive<a id='r1325' /><a href='#f1325' class='c014'><sup>[1325]</sup></a>, and in -any case there is nothing to associate the Sicyonian tyrants personally -with Sicyonian potteries; but there are literary notices which point -to the Orthagorids as having been, like the other early tyrants, -builders and, presumably, employers of local labour. The Olympian -“treasury” which Pausanias thought to have been put up by the -tyrant Myron<a id='r1326' /><a href='#f1326' class='c014'><sup>[1326]</sup></a> has been shown by excavation to have been fifth -century work<a id='r1327' /><a href='#f1327' class='c014'><sup>[1327]</sup></a>. But in this treasury Pausanias saw two “bronze -chambers” (models of buildings?) one of which bore an inscription -saying that it was a dedication of Myron and the people of Sicyon. -This inscription may have misled Pausanias into ascribing to Myron -the building that contained it<a id='r1328' /><a href='#f1328' class='c014'><sup>[1328]</sup></a>. The bronze chamber on which the -dedication was inscribed was on a large scale. It weighed 500 -Aeginetan talents or about 19 tons. From towards the end of the -period of the tyranny Sicyon was famous for its school of sculptors, -who worked largely in bronze, and though no statement has been -preserved as to the workmanship of Myron’s dedication, it may not -unreasonably be used as evidence that the Sicyonians of his reign -were already experts in the working of bronze<a id='r1329' /><a href='#f1329' class='c014'><sup>[1329]</sup></a>. As regards buildings, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_264'>264</span>Cleisthenes with the spoils that he gained in the Sacred War is -known to have erected at Sicyon a magnificent portico<a id='r1330' /><a href='#f1330' class='c014'><sup>[1330]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Pollux, the lexicographer of the second century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">A.D.</span></span>, says that -the Sicyonians in the time of the tyrants (as also the Athenians under -the Peisistratids) wore a particular kind of rough woollen dress “that -they might be ashamed to go down into the city<a id='r1331' /><a href='#f1331' class='c014'><sup>[1331]</sup></a>.” The statement -may be true and the explanation false. If both are accepted, it by -no means follows that the policy of the Sicyonian tyrants was -dominantly agricultural<a id='r1332' /><a href='#f1332' class='c014'><sup>[1332]</sup></a>. We may possibly have here a record of -a measure intended to prevent the commercialized city from attracting -to itself the agricultural population that was of such vital -importance to the normal self-sufficing Greek city-state. There is -little doubt that the government of the Sicyonian tyrants was popular -with the lower classes. Aristotle declares that it lasted so long -because they treated their subjects so well<a id='r1333' /><a href='#f1333' class='c014'><sup>[1333]</sup></a>.

While he was tyrant -the city enjoyed great material prosperity. Then in the middle of -the sixth she was afflicted with two generations of civil war, after -which there came a great revival of prosperity under the tyrant -Histiaeus.

Moreover in the -case of Miletus there is nothing to show which tyrant Aristotle is -referring to.

But on the other hand the Persians seem to have been -remarkably free from any tendency to Persianize the nations they -subdued. Their sins were those rather of Abdul Hamid than of the -Young Turks.

The chance came to him when he had won Darius’ -confidence and gratitude in his Scythian campaign and the Great -King invited him to choose his reward. “He asked for Myrcinus -in Edonia, wishing to found in it a city<a id='r1373' /><a href='#f1373' class='c014'><sup>[1373]</sup></a>.” Darius granted his request -and the foundation was begun.

Lucian’s -Phalaris is represented as defending himself at Delphi against the -charge of cruelty: he certainly utters many paradoxes in so doing; -but the point of the picture is that it is based on the received -tradition, and it may fairly be used as evidence on a question such -as that which is being here considered.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Aristotle classes Phalaris among the tyrants who owed their -position to some high office that they had previously held<a id='r1402' /><a href='#f1402' class='c014'><sup>[1402]</sup></a>, a statement -which is good evidence for Phalaris as a historical personage -and as far as it goes accords with Polyaenus.</p> - -<p class='c007'>“When the Agrigentines were rid of Phalaris they decreed that -nobody should wear a blue-grey cloak: for the servants of the -tyrant wore aprons (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">περιζώματα</span>) of blue-grey<a id='r1403' /><a href='#f1403' class='c014'><sup>[1403]</sup></a>.” The prohibition -of these blue-grey aprons makes it look as if the men who overthrew -the tyranny of Phalaris thought it necessary to disband his army -of uniformed employees.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Further the part of the narrative of Polyaenus that most concerns -us here can claim a certain probability from what is known of an -early namesake and fellow-townsman of the Syracusan tyrant -Agathocles.

At this they say -<span class='pageno' id='Page_277'>277</span>the divine power gave forth a sign: Agathocles was struck by lightning and -consumed by fire along with all his house. The Geomoroi confiscated his -property to the state, although the kleronomoi (the financial officials) showed -that he had taken nothing of the monies of the temple or of the state. They -devoted his house to the gods and forbade those who came there to set foot -in it, and to this day it is called the embrontaion (<i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">i.e.</span></i> the place struck by -lightning).</p> - -<p class='c007'>The positions of Phalaris and Agathocles as described by Polyaenus -and Diodorus are very similar.

Both again misuse -their position, and in neither case is the offender charged with misappropriation. -Phalaris secures himself a tyranny, Agathocles builds -himself a house. But the house is a very special sort of house, and -though the builder is specifically acquitted of any dishonest dealings -about it, it brings down on him the wrath both of the gods and of -the government. The gods burn him and his house: the government -confiscate his property. What sort of a house was it that had such -disastrous consequences for its builder? A close parallel is offered by -the history of the Roman Maelius, who is said in the fifth century -<span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> to have had his house pulled down and his property confiscated. -In the case of Agathocles the gods, when they destroyed his house, -are said to send a sign (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐπισημαίνειν</span>): in that of Maelius the -offence that caused his house to be demolished is pronounced to be -not a scelus but a monstrum. The charge that brought down on -Maelius these extreme penalties was that of aiming at the throne. -Maelius was extremely rich, and had a large army of clients, and -we may reasonably infer that his house was so severely dealt with -because it looked too much like a royal palace. Considering the -analogies in the story of Agathocles with that of Maelius on the one -hand and that of Phalaris on the other, it looks not unlikely that -the exception taken to the house of Agathocles was due to its -palatial character. Private dwellings in early Greek cities were -notoriously simple and unpretentious<a id='r1407' /><a href='#f1407' class='c014'><sup>[1407]</sup></a>. A house in which it was -possible to employ stones intended for a great temple was obviously -quite the reverse.

He quotes Euaion, the pupil -of Plato<a id='r1418' /><a href='#f1418' class='c014'><sup>[1418]</sup></a>, who not far off to the north at Lampsacus “lent money -to the city on the security of the Acropolis, and, when the city -defaulted, wanted to become tyrant, until the Lampsacenes gathered -against him and after paying him the money cast him out<a id='r1419' /><a href='#f1419' class='c014'><sup>[1419]</sup></a>.” On -the other side of Assos, at Cyme, the public porticoes once passed -into the hands of some bankers who had lent money to the city -on that security<a id='r1420' /><a href='#f1420' class='c014'><sup>[1420]</sup></a>. Leaf might have gone on to quote the case of -Timaeus the Cyzicene, who, like Euaion and perhaps Hermias, had -been a pupil of Plato:</p> - -<p class='c015'>Timaeus the Cyzicene having granted bonuses (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐπιδοὺς</span>) of money and -corn to the citizens and having on that account won credit among the Cyzicenes -as being a worthy man, after a short while made an attempt on the city -(<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐπέθετο</span>; cp. <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἐπιθεμένῳ</span> above of the predecessor of Hermias) by means -of Aridaios<a id='r1421' /><a href='#f1421' class='c014'><sup>[1421]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The attempt failed but there can be no doubt that Timaeus like -Euaion “wanted to become tyrant” by means of his wealth.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It is curious to notice that the method of securing power practised -by the pupils of Plato and Aristotle is precisely that which was -prescribed by our own Doctor Johnson: “No, Sir, the way to make -sure of power and influence is by lending money confidentially to -your neighbours at a small interest or perhaps at no interest at all, -and having their bonds in your possession<a id='r1422' /><a href='#f1422' class='c014'><sup>[1422]</sup></a>.” In Aristotle’s own -<span class='pageno' id='Page_282'>282</span>day it appears to have been followed, though without success, in -the greatest commercial city of the age:</p> - -<p class='c015'>After this Anno, a man of Carthage, who in personal wealth was more -than a match for the state, was absorbed with a desire to seize supreme -power.... He stirred up the slaves that with their aid he might suddenly -crush the unsuspecting state.... This happened in the days of Philip<a id='r1423' /><a href='#f1423' class='c014'><sup>[1423]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Thus there is a basis for Leaf’s suggestion that Euboulos of Assos, -the master and predecessor of Hermias, had made himself tyrant -by similar means<a id='r1424' /><a href='#f1424' class='c014'><sup>[1424]</sup></a>. But if Aristotle had before him the career of -Hanno the Carthaginian, and if a whole group of his own fellow-students -made the attempt, and in one case at least successfully, to -become financier despots in a corner of the world particularly -familiar to the philosopher<a id='r1425' /><a href='#f1425' class='c014'><sup>[1425]</sup></a>, how are we to explain the fact that -his writings take no account of the commercial tyrant? Once more, -if I am not mistaken, the cause is largely Dionysius. If, as seems -probable, there was this late outcrop of attempts at a commercial -tyranny, none the less the type had long ceased to play any great -part in history<a id='r1426' /><a href='#f1426' class='c014'><sup>[1426]</sup></a>. Hanno was a failure: moreover he tampered with -the slaves of Carthage and this enabled Aristotle to classify him with -Pausanias the Spartan. For Aristotle the tyrant is a soldier or a -demagogue or both. Plutocracy with him means oligarchy<a id='r1427' /><a href='#f1427' class='c014'><sup>[1427]</sup></a>. As he -himself says, “if one individual possesses more than the rest of the -wealthy, on the oligarchic principle it is right that he should rule -<span class='pageno' id='Page_283'>283</span>alone<a id='r1428' /><a href='#f1428' class='c014'><sup>[1428]</sup></a>.” If forced to catalogue the government of a commercial -despot he would probably have described it as an oligarchy of one. -But it is doubtful whether the government of Hermias was strictly -speaking the rule of a single individual.</p> - -<p class='c007'>An inscription now in the British Museum speaks repeatedly of -<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Ἑρμίας καὶ οἱ ἑταῖροι</span><a id='r1429' /><a href='#f1429' class='c014'><sup>[1429]</sup></a> which Leaf translates and explains into -“Hermias and company, Bankers and Despots.” The precise nature -of these companions is uncertain: but their repeated mention in a -treaty suggests that Hermias tried to avoid the appearances of single -rule<a id='r1430' /><a href='#f1430' class='c014'><sup>[1430]</sup></a>. Lastly the personal element may have had its influence even -with the great philosopher. Not only was he in close personal connexion -with Hermias; but his one deviation into poetry, his remarkable -ode to Virtue<a id='r1431' /><a href='#f1431' class='c014'><sup>[1431]</sup></a>, was written in honour of Hermias after his -fall. According to one version of the story the philosopher’s devotion -to the memory of his friend cost him his life<a id='r1432' /><a href='#f1432' class='c014'><sup>[1432]</sup></a>. Plainly for Aristotle -the ruler of Atarneus was no tyrant<a id='r1433' /><a href='#f1433' class='c014'><sup>[1433]</sup></a>, and it follows that Euaion -and Timaeus, even if their efforts had been successful, would not -have been so either. Plato on the other hand would have particular -<span class='pageno' id='Page_284'>284</span>cause to regard as a tyrant the Syracusan ruler by whom he is said -to have been sold into slavery for twenty minae<a id='r1434' /><a href='#f1434' class='c014'><sup>[1434]</sup></a>. In short this -group of would-be philosopher kings probably did as much as -Dionysius himself to blind Aristotle and later writers to the true -nature of seventh and sixth century tyranny<a id='r1435' /><a href='#f1435' class='c014'><sup>[1435]</sup></a>.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>(<em>b</em>) The money power of the rulers of Pergamum (283–133 B.C.).</div> - -<p class='c007'>If Aristotle had lived another forty years he might have witnessed -quite near Atarneus the rise of another and -much more notable monarchy, that of the Attalids -of Pergamum, which was also based almost exclusively -on wealth. Pergamum had become the fortified -treasury of Lysimachus when he succeeded to the Thracian -dominions of Alexander the Great. The keeping of the fort and -the 9000 talents of treasure that it contained was entrusted to a -certain Philetairos. He was a eunuch, but well brought up, and -he showed himself worthy of the trust. In spite of, or rather perhaps -as the result of, the quarrels of the Diadochoi, he continued for -twenty years master of the fort and of the money<a id='r1436' /><a href='#f1436' class='c014'><sup>[1436]</sup></a>. There seems -little doubt that Philetairos was of humble birth<a id='r1437' /><a href='#f1437' class='c014'><sup>[1437]</sup></a>, and that he owed -his rise to this gift of finance which secured him first the management -and then the possession of these 9000 talents. He began his -independent career by going over from Lysimachus, whose realm -lay mainly in Europe, to Seleucus, the most able of the Diadochoi -in Asia<a id='r1438' /><a href='#f1438' class='c014'><sup>[1438]</sup></a>. Shortly afterwards Seleucus was murdered by Ptolemy -<span class='pageno' id='Page_285'>285</span>Keraunos, the Greek king of Egypt; but Philetairos, who believed -firmly in the fortunes of the Seleucids, secured the friendship of -Antiochus, the son and successor of Seleucus, by buying the body -of the murdered king at a heavy price from Keraunos and sending -it to Antiochus<a id='r1439' /><a href='#f1439' class='c014'><sup>[1439]</sup></a>. Philetairos was always ready to draw upon his -9000 talents if by doing so he could purchase power. When the -people of the neighbouring town of Pitane were in debt to the -extent of 380 talents, Philetairos advanced a portion of that sum, -and thereby secured influence over that city<a id='r1440' /><a href='#f1440' class='c014'><sup>[1440]</sup></a>. Gifts were made to -Cyzicus with similar intentions and results<a id='r1441' /><a href='#f1441' class='c014'><sup>[1441]</sup></a>. The island of Aegina -became a Pergamene possession for the price of 30 talents<a id='r1442' /><a href='#f1442' class='c014'><sup>[1442]</sup></a>. These -proceedings are typical of the way in which the rulers of Pergamum -established and maintained their position. As Holm observes<a id='r1443' /><a href='#f1443' class='c014'><sup>[1443]</sup></a> their -power was a money power. Like every other political power that -has hitherto arisen, that of the Attalids was partly military. Soon -after the death of Philetairos and the accession of Attalus, the -second ruler of the dynasty, Asia Minor was overrun by the Celtic -hordes which finally settled down to a peaceful life in what was -known thenceforth as Galatia. The promiscuous maraudings of -these barbarians were checked and eventually crushed by Attalus -and his successors. But the Attalids were still more notable for their -works of peace. Under their government Pergamum became one -of the most active centres of art and industry in the whole world. -The city, elaborately constructed in terraces on a lofty hillside, -offered a remarkably successful example of scientific town-planning, -and must have involved a large and highly organized army of -architects, builders, masons, and the like. The Pergamene school -of sculpture flourished exceedingly. We owe to it Lord Byron’s -dying gladiator, who has long since been recognized as a copy of -a dying Galatian carved at Pergamum to commemorate a victory -of Attalus I over the Celtic invader. Much of Pergamene art is -exaggerated and ugly, but that does not diminish its economic -significance, and Mommsen is justified in describing Attalus I as -the Lorenzo de’ Medici of antiquity<a id='r1444' /><a href='#f1444' class='c014'><sup>[1444]</sup></a>. We have already compared -<span class='pageno' id='Page_286'>286</span>the Medici with the early Greek tyrants. But it is not merely that -the Pergamene rulers and early tyrants like Gyges have a common -resemblance to the Italian merchant princes of the early renaissance. -A distinct resemblance between the Attalids and the house of Gyges -has been already recognized and developed by Adolph Holm. The -two powers are much the same geographically; both are the great -connecting link between the Greek Aegean and the Asiatic lands -that lie to the east of it; both organize the forces of material prosperity -against barbaric invasions from the north; both have money -as the basis of their power<a id='r1445' /><a href='#f1445' class='c014'><sup>[1445]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The history of Philetairos and his successors at Pergamum increases -the probability that Leaf is right in his picture of the banker -despots of the days of Plato and Aristotle. <span class='sni'><span class='hidev'>|</span>(<em>c</em>) The rich -Protogenes, -financial director -of Olbia -about 200 B.C.<span class='hidev'>|</span></span> -The picture -is scarcely complete enough to be quite convincing, -but it may be supplemented and confirmed from the -history of a financial magnate named Protogenes, -who flourished at Olbia probably towards the end of the third -century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span></p> - -<p class='c007'>Protogenes is known only from a single inscription put up -during his lifetime to record his benefactions to his native -city<a id='r1446' /><a href='#f1446' class='c014'><sup>[1446]</sup></a>.

But this latter hypothesis is not better founded -than the other. “Advance” and “request” may after all mean what -they say.

The financial directorship may -correspond to the magistracy that is said to have frequently led -directly to the tyranny, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">e.g.</span></i> at Corinth and Miletus. Protogenes -is of course much later in date, but the Greek cities of South Russia -were the home of many curious survivals. At Olbia itself for -instance we find a style of pottery that in Greece proper was typical -of the fifth and fourth centuries persisting apparently into the first<a id='r1449' /><a href='#f1449' class='c014'><sup>[1449]</sup></a>. -There are even hints that Olbia had once at least and perhaps -comparatively recently gone through a social and economic revolution -something like those that so often convulsed the cities of the -seventh and sixth centuries just before they fell under tyrants, -<i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">e.g.</span></i> Athens before the tyranny of Peisistratus, or Miletus before that -of Histiaeus. While the city was being besieged by a certain Zopyrion -the Olbiopolitans had “set slaves free, given foreigners citizenship, -and cancelled all debts<a id='r1450' /><a href='#f1450' class='c014'><sup>[1450]</sup></a>.” If this Zopyrion is the governor left by -<span class='pageno' id='Page_288'>288</span>Alexander in Thrace<a id='r1451' /><a href='#f1451' class='c014'><sup>[1451]</sup></a> this revolution must be dated at least a -century earlier than Protogenes. If, with Grote, we refuse to -accept this identification, the revolution is left dateless. In any case -it shows that such upheavals did happen in Olbia, and serves to -remind us how very incomplete is the material with which we are -dealing. But the value for our enquiry of the Protogenes enscription -does not depend on any speculations of this kind. What it does is -to give us a detailed picture of an exceptionally wealthy man in -an ancient Greek city state who for a considerable period largely -financed his city. If Protogenes could do this in Olbia there can -be nothing inherently improbable in the hypothesis that other great -capitalists had done something similar in other cities. If Protogenes -did not turn his position into a political tyranny, that would be no -proof that others did not do so: and the fact remains that the -assumption that Protogenes was not on the way to become a tyrant, -or indeed that he did not actually become one, if not precisely wild<a id='r1452' /><a href='#f1452' class='c014'><sup>[1452]</sup></a> -is purely hypothetical.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The records of Protogenes illustrate the sort of way in which the -financial magnate might win the supreme place in his city. The whole -group of facts associated with his name and with those of Euboulos, -Hermias, Euaion, Timaeus, Philetairos, and Attalus shows once -again that at least there is nothing improbable in the theory that the -power of the seventh and sixth century tyrants was built up on a -similar financial or industrial basis, the more so considering the -evidence adduced already for believing that conditions in the earlier -period were uniquely favourable for the establishment of a money -power. We have seen why the financial despots of the age of Plato -and Aristotle should not have helped to preserve the memory of -earlier money powers. It is no less easy to see why the same should -have been the case with the rulers of Pergamum. An exceptional -circumstance saved the house of Philetairos from being reproached -with its mercenary basis, and curiously enough that circumstance -was one which illustrates how very mercenary that basis was. When -Attalus III, the last of his house, died in 133 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>, he made the -Roman people his heirs<a id='r1453' /><a href='#f1453' class='c014'><sup>[1453]</sup></a>. His fortune was used by the Gracchan -<span class='pageno' id='Page_289'>289</span>revolutionaries to equip the impoverished Romans whom they were -restoring to the land by their agrarian laws. The dynasty too, with -its clear eye for the main chance, had always consistently sought -the friendship of Rome<a id='r1454' /><a href='#f1454' class='c014'><sup>[1454]</sup></a>. Though most of our authorities for the -history of the Attalids are Greek, the Greeks in question were -all pro-Roman, with the result that we see the Attalids essentially -from the Roman point of view. They stood in much the same -relationship to the Romans as the house of Gyges did to the Greeks; -and the Romans to whom Attalus III had left all his treasure and -possessions were as little inclined to think harshly of their benefactor -as were the Greeks whom Croesus had so largely benefited inclined -to be critical of his “hospitable virtue<a id='r1455' /><a href='#f1455' class='c014'><sup>[1455]</sup></a>.” In both cases the man of -business was known only as the patron of deserving charities. We -have to go to rulers like the Tarquins and Peisistratids, whose -history we owe ultimately to their own subjects and employees, to -hear the money-power described as it really was and given its true -name of tyranny.</p> - -<div class='chapter'> - <span class='pageno' id='Page_290'>290</span> - <h2 class='c005'>Chapter XI. <em>Conclusion</em></h2> -</div> - -<div class='lg-container-b c013'> - <div class='linegroup'> - <div class='group'> - <div class='line'><span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἀγαθὸν δὲ ὄντα διαφερόντως καὶ πλούσιον εἶναι διαφερόντως ἀδύνατον.</span></div> - </div> - <div class='group'> - <div class='line in32'><span class='sc'>Plato</span>, <cite>Laws</cite>, <span class='fss'>V.</span> 743<em>a</em>.</div> - </div> - </div> -</div> - -<p class='c021'>“We adopted a law that if you bought an office you didn’t get it.

Ancient evidence and -modern analogy both suggest that the new form of -government was based on the new form of capital. The modern -analogy is to be found in the financial revolution which has largely -replaced metal coins by paper (thereby rendering capital very much -more mobile, just as was done by the financial revolution of the age -of the tyrants) and has led many people to fear a new tyranny of -wealth. The ancient evidence is to be found in the scanty extant -writings of the sixth century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> (Solon and Theognis), in scattered -notices about early tyrants or tyranny in fifth century writers -(Thucydides, Herodotus, Pindar), in certain statements of Aristotle, -in references to industrial conditions both during and after the age -of the tyrants, in the history of the states where there was never a -tyranny, and in the steps taken to prevent a recurrence of tyranny.</p> - -<p class='c007'>If the commercial origin of the early tyranny is not explicitly -formulated by any ancient writer it should be remembered how -meagre are contemporary documents and how little Greek writers -say about economic causes. It is true also that my view is at variance -with statements of Plato, Aristotle, and subsequent writers: but -their picture of the rise of tyranny clashes with known facts about -the seventh and sixth centuries and is due to false generalizations -<span class='pageno' id='Page_291'>291</span>from the conditions of their own days and particularly from the -career of Dionysius of Syracuse.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Athens.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Peisistratus made himself tyrant by organizing the Attic “hill -men” (Diakrioi, Epakrioi) against the two previously -existing rival factions of the “plain” and the “coast.” -The accepted explanations of these “hill men” are improbable. -They cannot have been farmers or shepherds, who were always -very conservative, are not recorded as having subsequently supported -Peisistratus, and must have lived principally in the plain and very -little in the forest-clad mountains where modern theories generally -locate them. Nor were the “hill men” confined to the mountainous -district of North Attica, the mistaken identification of which with -the “hill country” is due to mistaken views as to the triple division -of Attica into “hill,” “coast,” and “plain,” which wrongly assigns -all South Attica to the “coast” and limits the “coast” to South -Attica. These views on the triple division of Attica in the days of -Peisistratus are based on the weakest of evidence and are made -improbable by the subsequent topographical arrangements of Cleisthenes -(502 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span>), and by the later uses of the terms Diakria and -Epakria. The Epakria contained a village named Semachidai which, -as shown by a recently found inscription, lay in the hilly mining -district of South Attica. Furthermore the Attic “akron” <i><span lang="fr" xml:lang="fr">par -excellence</span></i> was Cape Sunium, the Southern apex of the Attic mining -district and of the whole Attic peninsula. In view of these facts -it becomes probable that the Sunium and Laurium mining district -was the “hill country” <i><span lang="fr" xml:lang="fr">par excellence</span></i>. The mines were almost -certainly in full work at this period, and the miners, unlike those of -later ages, free men, good material for a political faction.</p> - -<p class='c007'>That Peisistratus based his power on silver mines is made very -likely by what is known of his subsequent career. He finally “rooted -his power” on money derived partly from home, partly from the -Thracian mining district; he went to the Thracian mining district -to prepare for his second restoration; his first restoration is attributed -to the dressing up as Athena of a Thracian woman named Phye, -who is very possibly to be explained away as the Athena who begins -about this time to appear on Attic coins: for this interpretation of -the Phye story compare the names “girl,” “virgin,” “Pallas” colloquially -given to the Attic coins, and the jest about Agesilaus being -driven out of Asia by the Great King’s archers, a colloquial name -for Persian gold coins.</p> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_292'>292</span>The tyranny fell at Athens when the tyrants lost control of the -Thracian mining district. Shortly afterwards the ambitious Histiaeus, -the Greek friend of the Persian king into whose power the mines -had passed, incurred the suspicions of the Persian sovereign through -attempting to build up a political power on these very mines and -miners.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The history of the Alcmaeonid opposition to the house of Peisistratus -likewise suggests that the government of Athens at this -period depended first and foremost on the power of the purse.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Samos.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Polycrates is perhaps best known for his piracies, but it seems not -unlikely that these piracies were in fact an elaborate -commercial blockade of Persia that proved almost as -unpopular among Greek neutrals as among the subjects of the -Great King against whom it was mainly directed. As tyrant Polycrates -is found controlling the commercial and industrial activities -of his state, building ships, harbour works, and waterworks, and -very possibly a great bazaar, and probably employing much free -labour on these works. Before he became tyrant he already had -an interest in the chief Samian industries, the working of metal and -the manufacture of woollen goods. Aiakes the father of Polycrates -is probably the Aiakes whom a recently discovered Samian inscription -appears to connect with the sea-borne trade of the island. The -tyrant is said to have owed his fall to an attempt to get money enough -to rule all Greece, a statement of particular value considering the -tendency to administer poetic justice that is so frequently displayed -by Herodotus, who is our authority for this statement.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Egypt.</div> - -<p class='c007'>The great developments of trade and industry that just preceded -the age of tyranny in Greece had their parallel if not -their origin in Egypt. At the height of this development -in Egypt a new and powerful dynasty arises which bases its -power on commerce and on the commercial and industrial classes. -Already towards the end of the eighth century we find King -Bocchoris (somewhat after the manner of the Argive Pheidon) -devoting special attention to commercial legislation. His successor -Sethon is said by Herodotus to have based his power on “hucksters -and artizans and tradespeople.” During these reigns the country -was always being occupied or threatened by foreign invaders from -Ethiopia or Assyria. The first Egyptian king of this period to rule -all Egypt in normal conditions of peace and quietness was Psammetichus -I, who rose to power about the same time as Cypselus -<span class='pageno' id='Page_293'>293</span>in Corinth and Orthagoras in Sicyon. Psammetichus according to -Diodorus converted his position from that of a petty Delta chieftain -(one of twelve who shared the rule of the part of the country not -in foreign occupation) into that of supreme ruler of the whole -country as a result of the wealth and influence that he won by trading -with Phoenicians and Greeks.</p> - -<p class='c007'>This last statement if true establishes Psammetichus as a commercial -tyrant. It occurs only in Diodorus, and receives no direct -confirmation in earlier writers, but it is in entire harmony with all -that is known about events and conditions in Egypt at this period, -and more particularly with the notices just quoted as to Bocchoris -and Sethon, with the history of Amasis and the other later Saites -as recorded in Herodotus, and with the conclusions to be drawn -from the excavation of Naukratis and the other Greek settlements -that played so important a part in Saite Egypt.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Lydia.</div> - -<p class='c007'>From the middle of the eighth century <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> till the early part of -the fifth Lydia appears to have been a power in -which the ruler based his position on wealth and -struggles for the throne were fought with the weapons of trade -and finance. This according to the accounts is the case with Spermos -and Ardys in the eighth century and with Croesus in the sixth: -the story of Gyges and his magic ring may also be explained in the -same sense. A similar state of things is indicated in the advice which -Croesus is made by Herodotus to give to Cyrus, in the story of -the revolt of Pactyes, and in that of Xerxes and the rich Pythes.</p> - -<p class='c007'>At about the time to which we can trace back this state of things -in Lydia, two events were taking place that are both attributed to -Lydia, namely the striking of the first metal coins and the appearance -of the first tyrant. In neither case are the dates very precise. -The first coins are more probably to be placed late in the eighth -century than early in the seventh, and though Gyges is stated to -have been the first tyrant, there are reasons for suspecting that he -may have been merely the first ruler of his kind to attract the -attention of the Greeks. The magic ring too by which he secured -his tyranny is sometimes attributed not to Gyges but to some (not -very remote) ancestor of his or to the eighth century plutocrat -Midas king of the neighbouring Phrygia. But on any showing the -ring falls within the limits of time and place to which may be -ascribed the earliest coins and the earliest tyrant. Rings are one -common form of early currency and it is not impossible that it was -<span class='pageno' id='Page_294'>294</span>to the ring in this sense that the first tyrant owed his tyranny. This -view, which implies that the earliest coins were private issues and -that the coinage was only nationalized when the principal coiner -became chief of the state, is supported alike by evidence and -analogies.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Argos.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Pheidon, who was probably the first ruler to be called tyrant -in European Greece, is described by Herodotus as -“the man who created for the Peloponnesians their -measures,” a description that at once suggests that it was this -commercial step that differentiated Pheidon the tyrant from the -kings who preceded him. Later writers, of whom the earliest is -Ephorus, go further and state that silver was first coined by Pheidon -in Aegina. The statement has been called in question, but it is -confirmed by the chapters of Herodotus (<span class='fss'>V.</span> 82 f.) which describe -the early relations between Argos, Aegina, and Athens. In the -light of recent archaeological enquiries it becomes highly probable -that Argos became predominant in Aegina as described in these -chapters of Herodotus (which are unfortunately most vague in their -chronology) just about the time when Pheidon most probably -reigned; and this probability is increased by the tradition that -Pheidon recovered the lot of Temenos, the domain of the kings -of Argos in early Dorian times, which included the island of Aegina. -The occupation of Aegina by Argos which we have seen reason -to associate with Pheidon gave rise according to Herodotus to a -change in the “measures” (which probably included the weights -system) in use on the island, the new measures being half as great -again as those previously in use. The Aeginetan standard on which -the Aeginetan coins were struck is roughly half as great again as -the other and probably earlier standard used in ancient Greece. The -statement of Ephorus that silver was first coined by Pheidon in -Aegina is thus strikingly confirmed, which means that the first -ruler to strike coins in European Greece was also the first to be -called tyrant.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Corinth.</div> - -<p class='c007'>The tyranny at Corinth coincides with the great industrial and -commercial developments of the city described by -Thucydides (<span class='fss'>I.</span> 13) in words that are a paraphrase of -his description of the state of things that led to the rise of tyrannies -in Greece generally. Scholars agree that the tyrants had a direct -interest in some of these developments, notably shipping, colonizing -and coinage. The main industry of Corinth at this period seems to -<span class='pageno' id='Page_295'>295</span>have been pottery, with which she supplied much of the Greek -world. Of the early career of the first tyrant, Cypselus, very little -is known beyond the story in Herodotus which professes to explain -how the infant Cypselus got his curious name. We have examined -in some detail the meaning of the words cypselus and cypsele, and -found that they probably mean potter and pot, so that the man who -established the tyranny at Corinth seems to have borne a name that -associates him with the main industry of his city.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Rome.</div> - -<p class='c007'>Both in date and in character the corresponding period at Rome -to the age of the tyrants in Greece is that which is -occupied by the reigns of the Tarquins. The first -king of this dynasty, Tarquinius Priscus, is said to have been the -son of a rich Corinthian named Demaratus. Early in life the first -of the Tarquins had settled in Rome. It was by means of his -wealth that he secured the throne. Both he and his father are said -to have been great employers of labour, and the accounts imply that -their employees were free men. Servius Tullius, who succeeded -Tarquinius Priscus, is said to have been the first at Rome to strike -coins, and to have secured the support of the poor by gifts and -benevolences. When the last of the Tarquins, Tarquinius Superbus, -overthrew Servius Tullius and secured the throne, he did so by -buying up the poorest of the common people. After his succession -he is described as employing Etruscans and Roman citizens on a -large scale as artizans and quarrymen. He loses the throne when -he can no longer pay these employees.</p> - -<p class='c007'>During the first century of the republic the established government -several times thought itself threatened with attempts to restore -the kingship. In each case it is the wealth or the exceptional financial -position of the suspected person that causes the alarm. Early republican -statesmen are repeatedly reported as charging the Tarquins -with having degraded Roman citizens (from their natural position -as soldiers and gentlemen) into tradesmen and artizans, a charge -which implies the reverse change as having accompanied the change -from kingly government to republican. The final blow to the -monarchist movement at Rome seems to have been dealt when -army pay was instituted, and the government as paymaster of the -army became the greatest employer of paid free labour in the state.</p> - -<p class='c007'>One later attempt to establish a tyranny at Rome has been -suspected by Mommsen. The man he suspects of it is Appius -Claudius Caecus, the censor of 312 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> Appius was noted for the -<span class='pageno' id='Page_296'>296</span>number of his clients and the great public works that he conducted, -and he probably had a close connexion with the first real coinage -struck by Rome. Attention has also been drawn to the accounts -of the secessions, with their curious resemblances to modern strikes -and their implication of organization on the part of labour. At -Ardea in North Latium about the year 440 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> the working-classes -are described as playing a decisive part in the struggle for supreme -power. At Veii in the year 400 <span class='sc'><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">B.C.</span></span> we are told of a rich employer -who became king of his city.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The statements just quoted have all been often regarded with -extreme scepticism. The reasons for this scepticism have been -examined in the chapter on Rome. It is impossible to resume them -here. If my conclusions are not entirely wrong, the scepticism of -the last century represented an excessive reaction against the undue -credulity of earlier ages. Recent archaeological discoveries enormously -increase the probability of the narrative in its main outlines. -But if after all the sceptics are right on this particular question, and -the Tarquin narrative is a fiction, it is none the less of historical -value, and confirms the view that the early tyrannis was commercial, -since, if fiction, it must be an early Greek fiction, preserving an -early Greek conception of the typical early tyrant as a great capitalist.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Other early tyrannies.</div> - -<p class='c007'>In Chapter IX we surveyed the evidence for the origin of the -early tyrannies at Sicyon, Megara, Miletus, Ephesus, -Leontini, Agrigentum, and Cumae. The material is -scanty and it is enough here to recall that as far as it goes it supports -the theory of a commercial origin. At Sicyon the tyranny is founded -by a tradesman the son of a tradesman. At Megara Theagenes rises -to power as the result of what looks very like the creation of a corner -in the staple product of his city. At Miletus and Leontini we find -tyrants arising as the result of something like class war between -rich and poor, while a later tyrant of Miletus tries to establish a -great political position by getting control of the mines and miners -of Thrace. At Ephesus and Cumae the tyrants’ power is said to -be based on the money that they distributed among the poorer -classes, while at Agrigentum the tyrant is definitely stated to have -secured the tyranny through his position as a great employer.</p> - -<div class='sidenote'>Capitalist despots of later ages.</div> - -<p class='c007'>In the times of Aristotle there are several cases in the Pergamene -district of rich bankers and the like making attempts, -of which one at least was successful, to secure supreme -political power in their cities by means of their -<span class='pageno' id='Page_297'>297</span>wealth. The close personal relationship in which Aristotle stood -to some of them partly explains why they are not classed by him -as tyrants.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Not long afterwards the far more important power of the rulers -of Pergamum owed its origin entirely to the enormous wealth of -the founder of the dynasty.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Later still at Olbia chance has preserved an inscription which -records how a very rich Olbiopolitan named Protogenes became -“financial director” of his city. Though there is no evidence that -Protogenes ever became a tyrant the inscription shows that the -sort of position which we have imagined to have been normally -built up by the would-be tyrant of the seventh or sixth century was -actually secured some three or four centuries later by a wealthy -individual in this remote and backward Greek city on the Black Sea.</p> - -<h3 class='c022'>(b) <cite>The credibility of the evidence as a whole</cite></h3> - -<p class='c023'>The value of the various items of evidence collected and reviewed -in the preceding chapters varies very greatly. In some cases we -have precise statements bearing closely on the point in question and -made by almost contemporary writers. At the other end of the list -we have anecdotes of doubtful relevance and doubtful authenticity -found in writers who lived centuries after the period to which they -refer. It is difficult to sum up the value of so miscellaneous a collection. -The estimate is bound to vary greatly according to the -temperament and training of the person who makes it. There are -however two points which seem in the present state of scholarship -to need especial emphasis.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The first of these refers to the generally prevalent attitude towards -the question of historical truth as it affects generally the period under -consideration. No one who has read at all widely in modern writings -on ancient history can have failed to observe that the scepticism -or credulity of any given scholar has always depended largely on -that of his generation. Up to a point this is inevitable: but we are -reaching a stage when it is no longer necessary to follow quite so -blindly as has hitherto been done the natural reaction from excessive -credulity to excessive scepticism and <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">vice versa</span></i>. The pendulum has -now been swinging long enough for its motion to be observed and -allowed for. There is no doubt that scholars of a few generations -ago were often and perhaps in general unduly credulous. But it is -no less certain that the main tendency of the past century has been -<span class='pageno' id='Page_298'>298</span>to react from excessive credulity to no less excessive scepticism. The -beginnings of the sceptical reaction were observed by Byron:</p> - -<div class='lg-container-b c016'> - <div class='linegroup'> - <div class='group'> - <div class='line'>I’ve stood upon Achilles’ tomb</div> - <div class='line'>And heard Troy doubted: Time will doubt of Rome.</div> - </div> - </div> -</div> - -<p class='c017'>The doubts about Troy have been triumphantly dispelled by the -spade. So likewise, as we have seen already, have many doubts as -to the reality of the Tarquins’ Rome. But the wonderful discoveries -of the last forty years at Troy, Mycenae, Knossos, Phaistos, and -other sites of early Cretan civilization have diverted the attention -of scholars from later periods. It need therefore cause no surprise -if in the preceding pages there has repeatedly been occasion to -criticize prevailing views as excessively and uncritically sceptical.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The second point on the question of historical truth that I wish -here to emphasize is concerned more directly with the evidence -collected in this book. As already admitted, the collection contains -many items of doubtful value: it could not be otherwise if it was -to be at all complete. The cumulative effect of so much dubious -evidence upon some mental temperaments is to discredit the mass -of evidence as a whole. It is important therefore to bear in mind -the character of our material. It is a heap, not a chain. Its -strength is to be measured by its strongest items rather than by its -weakest. Weak or irrelevant items do not invalidate any that are -relevant and cogent. On the contrary, points of evidence that are -individually unconvincing may have a powerful cumulative effect -if they are found all pointing, however dimly, in one definite direction, -and all suggesting a single explanation arrived at on independent -grounds. When dealing with the dawn of history it is uncritical to -reject a whole body of evidence merely because it is made up of -details scarcely any of which are capable of proof. The evidence of -history, or at any rate of Greek history, in its childhood is like that -of many an individual child. The child’s idea of truth is often more -fluid than that of the adult. It may be harder in any given case -to be sure of the exact facts. But it may all the same be certain -that facts more or less accurately recorded form a large element -of the information.</p> - -<p class='c007'>That, it may be fairly claimed, is how the evidence that has been -presented in this volume ought to be regarded. Its cumulative value -is really considerable. It should be remembered how independent -our witnesses are. Livy on the Tarquins of Rome is corroborated -by Diodorus on Psammetichus of Egypt: Herodotus on early tyrants -<span class='pageno' id='Page_299'>299</span>generally is borne out by his critic Thucydides: the later writers -who have been quoted so frequently and in such numbers drew upon -a great variety of sources: literary evidence is confirmed by archaeological, -as for instance when a conjecture as to the “hill men” of -Peisistratus that I put forward in 1906 is corroborated by an inscription -that was first published just after the publication of my conjecture. -When witnesses are so many and they speak on such a -variety of topics and under such a variety of circumstances and to -all appearances without the possibility of any common cue, the -chances of collusion become remote in the extreme.</p> - -<h3 class='c022'>(c) <em>Conclusions</em></h3> - -<p class='c023'>But granted that the various items of evidence that we have so -far collected have all a real historical value, and granted too that -they lend one another a considerable amount of mutual support, -there is a further line of criticism that deserves a careful consideration. -The evidence may all be true and yet the inferences that have -been drawn from it be false, or at least ill-balanced and misleading. -Kings and tyrants have in all ages tended to be extremely rich. In -most ages great riches have been indispensable for anyone aiming -at great political power, and the greater the power aimed at naturally -enough the greater the riches required to secure it. Admittedly the -tyrants lived in a commercial age, and the influence of wealth was -particularly strong. Does the evidence that has just been presented -prove in reality very much more than that? Some of the statements -about the men who became tyrants are indeed sufficiently explicit, -as for example that about the trading of the young Psammetichus, -or the wealth and workmen of the young Lucius Tarquinius, but -apart from the question of their trustworthiness they are all so brief -and meagre that it is impossible to be sure that we see them in the -right perspective. They are not very adequate for forming any -picture of the men they refer to or even of their financial position.</p> - -<p class='c007'>In short the early tyrants may have all been rich and all men of -business and yet their riches and business activities may have been -neither the basis nor the distinguishing feature of their rule. They -arose in a many-sided age, and there were many other developments -that might have conceivably brought them to the top. The doctrine -of the divine right of kings had lost its hold. The struggles between -the kings and the nobles had doubtless led both parties to appeal -to the people, and from that it might well be no far step to the -<span class='pageno' id='Page_300'>300</span>people’s appointing its own rulers. Then again there had been a -revolution in the art of war. The Homeric days were over when -the heavy-armed chieftain was everything and his followers a more -or less useless rabble. In the new kind of warfare large bodies of -trained men-at-arms counted for everything<a id='r1456' /><a href='#f1456' class='c014'><sup>[1456]</sup></a>. Such a change might -easily encourage a whole series of military officers to seize the -supreme power. Furthermore in the case at any rate of the outlying -Greek cities, and particularly those of Asia Minor<a id='r1457' /><a href='#f1457' class='c014'><sup>[1457]</sup></a>, the -constant danger from barbarian neighbours might readily suggest -the appointment of a military dictator. And we do in fact find the -early tyrants described as having been previously demagogues or -soldiers.</p> - -<p class='c007'>But we find also that these descriptions go back only to Aristotle -and have their source in fifth and fourth century conditions. Even -if they went further back, the objection just raised against the commercial -explanation applies still more strongly here. Kings and -rulers who govern in fact as well as in name are generally something -of public speakers or soldiers. It is almost an impossibility to find -a self-raised ruler who cannot be described as either a demagogue -or a polemarch<a id='r1458' /><a href='#f1458' class='c014'><sup>[1458]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Similarly with the notices about important offices of state alleged -to have been held by various tyrants before they attained to supreme -power. They are indeed among the most reliable items of information -that we possess about the early tyrants. But their significance -can be easily overrated. If ever a merchant who was aiming at -the tyranny sought to strengthen his political influence by obtaining -office, the record of his magistracy would be much more likely to -be preserved than that of his commercial successes. When we come -to the detailed evidence as presented in the previous pages the -balance in favour of the commercial theory may be claimed as -decisive.</p> - -<p class='c007'>If once the commercial origin of the tyrants’ power is admitted, -the various facts recorded about individual tyrants certainly gain in -meaning and coherence. The mercenaries, the monetary reforms and -innovations, the public works, the labour legislation, the colonial -policy and the commercial alliances with foreign states, which have -<span class='pageno' id='Page_301'>301</span>been repeatedly found associated with the early tyrants and which -give the preserved accounts of them such a distinct stamp, become far -more significant if it is granted that the tyrant’s power was based -on his control of the labour and trade of his city. As has been already -observed, the fact that a theory explains the connexions between -an obviously connected group of phenomena is no proof of its truth: -but on the other hand a theory which fails to explain satisfactorily -such a connexion is at an obvious disadvantage as compared with -one which does. That is one further reason why the typical tyrant -is not to be explained as a successful soldier or demagogue whose -riches came to him suddenly at the same moment as his throne. -The adventurer of either of these types might indeed further the -commercial developments of the city that he had seized. It would -be of course to his interest to do so. But as a general rule the man -who has secured a fortune at a single stroke does not care to improve -it by years of patient and organized effort. If all or any considerable -number of the tyrants reviewed above had owed their positions to -their sword or their tongue, there would inevitably have been some -cases of commercial retrogression under the tyrannis, whereas in -fact there are none.</p> - -<p class='c007'>This is a fundamental fact. The tyrants were one and all first-class -business men. If they did not deliberately use their wealth -to secure their position, there is only one other possible explanation -of their history: their financial abilities must have led their fellow-countrymen -to put them in the way of seizing the throne, and that -is roughly the account of them that is to be found in some modern -histories, where they are vaguely pictured as the more or less passive -products of blind economic forces. This view seems to me untenable. -It cannot be reconciled with the impression made by the early -tyrants on writers like Aristotle. More fatal still, we have a series -of “lawgivers” like Solon, who was a business man who gained -his position precisely in the way just indicated. Some of Solon’s -friends reproached him with his folly in not making himself tyrant. -But the fact remains that no “lawgiver” of the period did so<a id='r1459' /><a href='#f1459' class='c014'><sup>[1459]</sup></a>, and -that the titles of <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">νομοθέτης</span> and <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">αἰσυμνήτης</span> that were given -these legally appointed dictators were never applied either by friends -or enemies to any of the tyrants at any period of their careers<a id='r1460' /><a href='#f1460' class='c014'><sup>[1460]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'><span class='pageno' id='Page_302'>302</span>One fact has still to be explained. Different as are the views about -tyrants and tyranny expressed by different ancient writers at different -times they have this feature in common. All alike express their -hatred of tyrannical government. For Plato the man who becomes -a tyrant “is changed from a man into a wolf<a id='r1461' /><a href='#f1461' class='c014'><sup>[1461]</sup></a>.” When Herodotus -digresses into a debate on the merits of the chief forms of government, -he makes the critic of tyranny declare that there is nothing -more unjust than it or more bloodthirsty in the whole world<a id='r1462' /><a href='#f1462' class='c014'><sup>[1462]</sup></a>. -There is no judgment from heaven on the man who lays low a -tyrant. This doctrine of Theognis<a id='r1463' /><a href='#f1463' class='c014'><sup>[1463]</sup></a> is perpetually preached all -through Greek history. Harmodius and Aristogeiton the Athenian -tyrannicides were celebrated in sculpture<a id='r1464' /><a href='#f1464' class='c014'><sup>[1464]</sup></a> and in song<a id='r1465' /><a href='#f1465' class='c014'><sup>[1465]</sup></a> and their -names were constantly on the lips of orators<a id='r1466' /><a href='#f1466' class='c014'><sup>[1466]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>There are apparent exceptions to this attitude. The Aristotelian -<cite>Constitution of Athens</cite>, chapter <span class='fss'>XVI.</span>, records that “the tyranny of -Peisistratus was often praised as the life of the days of Kronos,” -<i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">i.e.</span></i> as the Golden Age, and the pseudo-Platonic <cite>Hipparchus</cite>, 229<em>b</em>, -speaks of it in similar terms: (under the tyrants) “the Athenians -lived much as in the days when Kronos was king.” But the Aristotelian -version states also what it was that evoked this praise. -“Peisistratus always secured peace and maintained quiet. Therefore -his tyranny was often praised.” The phraseology of the two quotations -shows that the praise was given not to the form of government, -but to the peaceful life that it procured, a life that might be, -and sometimes has been, associated with the most oppressive of -governments.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The word tyrant appears to be Lydian, and to have been first -applied among the Greeks to the rulers who followed in the steps -of the Lydian Gyges, whom some ancient writers describe as the -first tyrant<a id='r1467' /><a href='#f1467' class='c014'><sup>[1467]</sup></a>. Originally it was used in a colourless sense as a -synonym for king or monarch<a id='r1468' /><a href='#f1468' class='c014'><sup>[1468]</sup></a>. It is still so used in the tragedians -<span class='pageno' id='Page_303'>303</span>and frequently in Herodotus<a id='r1469' /><a href='#f1469' class='c014'><sup>[1469]</sup></a>. But wherever the tyrant is spoken -of in contradistinction to the king it is always in terms of detestation.</p> - -<p class='c007'>It must have been something in the character of the early tyrants -that first gave the word the evil connotation, which it has preserved -until this day<a id='r1470' /><a href='#f1470' class='c014'><sup>[1470]</sup></a>. What that something was is not easy to determine -with certainty. Much of it may be mere misrepresentation. -Aristotle<a id='r1471' /><a href='#f1471' class='c014'><sup>[1471]</sup></a> makes a statement about the tyrants with whom he was -acquainted that is generally true of all monarchies. The tyrant, he -says, “supports the people and the masses against the nobles (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">γνωρίμους</span>).” -We must not forget that the extant narratives represent -almost exclusively the point of view of the aristocracy. It has often -been suggested that this fact may account for the almost unanimous -condemnation of the tyranny. But is this explanation altogether -adequate? The Greek tyrant and the Roman rex are not the only -monarchs who have had a bad press. The Emperors of Rome and -the kings of Israel and Judah suffered likewise. Yet Jewish priests -and Roman senators were not able to turn the titles of King and -Emperor and Caesar into a byword and reproach. There must have -been some very special circumstances to account for the universal -execration of the name of tyrant. Is it not perhaps to be found in -the commercial character of its origin? From the days of the Zeus-born -king of Homer and long before, back to the very beginnings -of leadership among men, legitimate kingship has always been held -to rest upon the personal capacity of the ruler. This is the basis of -belief in hereditary monarchy, or any other system that attaches -<span class='pageno' id='Page_304'>304</span>great importance to birth and upbringing. It is no less the basis -of much republicanism which from one point of view is merely a -denial of the value of heredity and specialized political education. -Men have often been ready, and with reason, to endure much -from a ruler whose power is based on his personality. But there -is one basis of political power that mankind has never tolerated, and -that basis is mere riches. They have felt with Plato that the plutocrat -as such has no right at all to rule. “He seemed to be one of the city -rulers,” says Plato<a id='r1472' /><a href='#f1472' class='c014'><sup>[1472]</sup></a>, of the oligarch whose power is based on his -wealth, “but in reality he was neither its ruler nor its servant, but -merely a consumer of its stores.” Plato was here at one with his -countrymen<a id='r1473' /><a href='#f1473' class='c014'><sup>[1473]</sup></a>. In the fifth century, as we know from the history -of the wealthy Nikias, riches did not exclude an Athenian from the -highest position in the state. But neither did they constitute a claim -to political power. In his famous funeral oration Pericles twice -claims that at Athens poverty is no bar to a political career. Pericles -is speaking of course for his own age. If the evidence collected in -this book has any value, the state of things during the first four -generations or so after the invention of a metal coinage was very -different. Money for a while became the measure of a man, and -wealth by itself brought political power.</p> - -<p class='c007'>We must beware of expecting simplicity anywhere in history<a id='r1474' /><a href='#f1474' class='c014'><sup>[1474]</sup></a>. -Even from the purely commercial point of view there were doubtless -powerful side-currents that have left no trace in our extant records. -The power of the Medici in Florence was based on their commercial -supremacy. But it did not rest entirely on their actual trading. In -part it was based on their position in the Papal treasury among the -mercatores Romanam curiam sequentes, and in part again on the -struggle between Emperor and Pope<a id='r1475' /><a href='#f1475' class='c014'><sup>[1475]</sup></a>. Similar factors must have -influenced the careers of Pheidon and other early tyrants of Greece. -In part again these early tyrants seem to have stood for a racial -movement. This was certainly the case at Sicyon, where the tyranny -marked the ascendancy of the pre-Dorian population; probably also -at Corinth, where the first tyrant’s father belonged to the Aeolic -<span class='pageno' id='Page_305'>305</span>pre-Dorian element of the population<a id='r1476' /><a href='#f1476' class='c014'><sup>[1476]</sup></a>. This racial factor is easily -reconciled with the commercial, quite apart from the possibility -that the pre-Dorian element that comes to the top at this period -may have been closely related to the Levantine race that plays so -prominent a part in Aegean commerce of the present day.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Nor must the personal element be left out of account, though so -lamentably little is known about it. Cypselus and Pheidon, Peisistratus -and Polycrates were certainly great personalities in their way. -The leaders in any movement are generally that. On the whole -they seem to have ruled well. Their government, except towards -opponents and rivals, was by no means oppressive. All the more -surprising therefore is their general condemnation. It is indeed -scarcely possible to explain it except on the view that they ruled by -right not of their personalities but of their riches. The prosperity -that they brought to their cities was altogether material. The famous -works of Polycrates were altogether the works of men’s hands. It -is characteristic of the rule of a typical early tyrant like Periander -that he encouraged the worship of Dionysus and Aphrodite at the -expense of the cults of Poseidon and Apollo<a id='r1477' /><a href='#f1477' class='c014'><sup>[1477]</sup></a>. No doubt his object -was partly to break down the monopoly of priestly office and religious -privilege that had hitherto been enjoyed by the aristocracy<a id='r1478' /><a href='#f1478' class='c014'><sup>[1478]</sup></a>: but -it is significant that while the tyrants’ policy meant a material -advance in all directions, it meant also a materialization even of -religion. That is why with a clearness of judgment that can be -matched outside Greece only in Dante, the united verdict of all -the Greeks utterly condemned them.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Two centuries after the expulsion of the tyrants from Athens, -the city again fell under a ruler who is said to have made its material -welfare his chief care, and “to have prided himself that there was -much profitable trade in the city and that all enjoyed in abundance -the necessaries of life.” Such according to Demochares, a nephew -of Demosthenes, was the boast of Demetrius of Phaleron, and for -it he is utterly condemned by Demochares as “taking pride in -things that might be a source of pride to a tax-collector or an artizan.” -The condemnation is quoted by Polybius as “no common charge<a id='r1479' /><a href='#f1479' class='c014'><sup>[1479]</sup></a>.” -<span class='pageno' id='Page_306'>306</span>Polybius plainly regards it as particularly damning, for he quotes it -<i><span lang="fr" xml:lang="fr">à propos</span></i> of certain monstrous charges that were current about -Demochares to prove that Demetrius must have refrained from -supporting them for lack of evidence and not from lack of ill-will. -Demochares and Polybius are a long step from the early tyrants: -but both in a sense belong to the period that followed the tyrants’ -fall. Their views about Demetrius and his materialistic policy may -well be an inheritance from an earlier age.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The age of the tyrants lasted for little more than five generations, -and never so long as that in any one city<a id='r1480' /><a href='#f1480' class='c014'><sup>[1480]</sup></a>. This fact may have some -consolation for those who fear a modern tyranny of wealth, and -offers perhaps an analogy for the observations of H. G. Wells -on the transitory character of the modern financial boss<a id='r1481' /><a href='#f1481' class='c014'><sup>[1481]</sup></a>. The -determination not to be permanently governed by mere wealth is -as strong to-day as it was twenty-five centuries ago. “The loathing -of capital with which our labouring classes to-day are growing more -and more infected” is explained by William James<a id='r1482' /><a href='#f1482' class='c014'><sup>[1482]</sup></a> as “largely -composed of this sound sentiment of antipathy for lives based on -mere having.” He contrasts<a id='r1483' /><a href='#f1483' class='c014'><sup>[1483]</sup></a> the “military and aristocratic” ideal -of the “well-born man without possessions.”</p> - -<p class='c007'>It is of course particularly hard to test the scorn of possessions -of a class that can always help itself to them at a crisis, and, as -William James himself admits, the ideal has always been “hideously -corrupted<a id='r1484' /><a href='#f1484' class='c014'><sup>[1484]</sup></a>.” Certainly at the present day the antipathies between -aristocracy and militarism and capitalism are, to say the least of it, -not particularly marked. It is the democracy that loathes capitalism. -But this may be merely a phase. The anti-capitalist movement -may end by labour becoming fatally materialised or fatally impoverished, -and in any country where that happens the way will -be open for a new Peisistratus.</p> - -<div class='chapter'> - <span class='pageno' id='Page_307'>307</span> - <h2 class='c005'>Appendix A (to p. <a href='#Page_37'>37</a>). <em>The supposed Agricultural and Northern Diakria.</em></h2> -</div> - -<div class='c003'></div> -<div class='sidenote'>(A) The farming population took little part in politics,</div> - -<p class='c007'>The agricultural or pastoral explanation of the party that supported -Peisistratus has no inherent probability<a id='r1485' /><a href='#f1485' class='c014'><sup>[1485]</sup></a>. Of course -if it was specifically stated on good authority that in -his days people of either of these two classes played -the decisive part in politics, objections would be -silenced. But the ancient evidence points all the other way. Aristotle -repeatedly states that of all people farmers and herdsmen are least -prone to support revolutions<a id='r1486' /><a href='#f1486' class='c014'><sup>[1486]</sup></a>, and definitely pictures these two -classes as having played an entirely passive part both under the -regime of the early tyrants and during its establishment<a id='r1487' /><a href='#f1487' class='c014'><sup>[1487]</sup></a>. When on -the throne Peisistratus gave financial help to impoverished farmers<a id='r1488' /><a href='#f1488' class='c014'><sup>[1488]</sup></a>, -a fact that is brought by Grundy<a id='r1489' /><a href='#f1489' class='c014'><sup>[1489]</sup></a> into connexion with his supposed -agricultural Diakrioi. But in doing so Grundy disregards some of -the words that he himself quotes, which show that the tyrant is -dealing not with his supporters but with a body of men who were -not interested in politics but threatened to become so if driven off -the land. Geographically there is nothing to connect with the -Diakria the men whom Peisistratus thus relieved. In his earlier -days the most distressed and discontented part of the agricultural -population were the pelatai and hektemoroi<a id='r1490' /><a href='#f1490' class='c014'><sup>[1490]</sup></a> who worked the lands -of the rich<a id='r1491' /><a href='#f1491' class='c014'><sup>[1491]</sup></a> and therefore presumably lived in the Plain.</p> - -<p class='c007'>According to the <cite>Constitution of Athens</cite> the hill men were made -up largely of people not of pure race, whose claim to citizenship -was more than doubtful<a id='r1492' /><a href='#f1492' class='c014'><sup>[1492]</sup></a>. Such a description is singularly inapplicable -to the people on the land in Attica, where in the fifth -<span class='pageno' id='Page_308'>308</span>century they still prided themselves on having an undisturbed -autochthonous population. Plutarch speaks of the hill men as a -“mob of hirelings<a id='r1493' /><a href='#f1493' class='c014'><sup>[1493]</sup></a>.” In the days just after Solon shepherds and -small farmers of the hektemor class may have been hirelings, but -they can hardly have ever been a mob.</p> - -<p class='c007'>There is therefore little to be said for the attempt to identify -the hill men with the shepherds and hypothetical farmers of Mount -Parnes. We cannot even be certain that the latter ever existed.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The soil of Attica was notoriously poor, abounding in stony -districts (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">φελλεῖς</span>) useful only for pasture<a id='r1494' /><a href='#f1494' class='c014'><sup>[1494]</sup></a>.

The only ancient writers -who talk of agriculture being carried on there are the writer of the -Aristotelian <cite>Constitution of Athens</cite> and Statius.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The former<a id='r1495' /><a href='#f1495' class='c014'><sup>[1495]</sup></a> tells the story of the man with the farm on Hymettus -(<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">τὸν ἐν τῷ Ὑμηττῷ γεωργοῦντα</span>). The story says nothing about -the frequency of farms on Hymettus or of the height up the hillside -<span class='pageno' id='Page_309'>309</span>of this particular farm. But it does say something about the -soil and the crops. The soil consisted of stones, the crops, so the -farmer told Peisistratus, were “troubles and sorrows.” This hardly -suggests that in the days of the tyranny Hymettus was of any great -importance agriculturally. The same conclusion is suggested by the -story of the clever Pelasgians who succeeded in cultivating the land -at the foot of Hymettus, much to the surprise of the Athenians<a id='r1496' /><a href='#f1496' class='c014'><sup>[1496]</sup></a>.</p> - -<p class='c007'>Statius<a id='r1497' /><a href='#f1497' class='c014'><sup>[1497]</sup></a> speaks of the ploughmen of fragrant Hymettus (olentis -arator Hymetti), and the vineyards of Parnes (Parnesque benignus -uitibus).

Fragrant -is an allusion to the famous honey of Hymettus, or to the thyme -that produced it<a id='r1498' /><a href='#f1498' class='c014'><sup>[1498]</sup></a>. Thyme and honey do not go with cornfields. -A “Parnes kindly to vines” is not easily reconciled with Pausanias, -who makes the mountain a good hunting-place for bears and wild -boars<a id='r1499' /><a href='#f1499' class='c014'><sup>[1499]</sup></a>. Plato declares that in his days some of the Attic mountains -were barren except for their yield of honey<a id='r1500' /><a href='#f1500' class='c014'><sup>[1500]</sup></a>, whereas once they -had been covered with forests<a id='r1501' /><a href='#f1501' class='c014'><sup>[1501]</sup></a>, some of which had only recently -been cut down.

But if we examine any good map of Attica, we see that -<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">Περάτι</span> does not end the Southern extension of Parnes; it forms the -North-east extremity of the hills of South Attica. That is a first -difficulty. It is at least unusual to define the limits of a district -by places beyond those limits. We do not say that Germany extends -from Tilsit to Verviers.</p> - -<p class='c007'>The second objection is far more serious. It is that the <span class='fss'>MSS.</span> -say nothing of Brauron. The word they give is Balylon (<span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">εἰς -Βαλυλωνος</span>, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">sic</span></i>). This was emended by Aldus to Babylon. Brauron -is a conjecture of Palmerius, and by no means a certain one.

Hogarth’s publication of the additional inscriptions found in 1903 is still -more deficient. Edgar’s account of those found in 1899 is better, though by no -means adequate. Of 108 probable dedications (some are too fragmentary to -be certain), 48 are on vases (black glaze, black figure, red figure) that cannot -have been made before the reign of Amasis, 33 are on cups of types that certainly -lasted into his reign, 6 on Naukratite fragments (phase not stated), 2 on (late) -Milesian. The rest are on fabrics difficult to date from the meagre descriptions. -Unfortunately this collection is not typical. It is to be regretted that Edgar -thought it “unnecessary to state the provenance of each separate inscription” -(<cite>B.S.A.</cite> <span class='fss'>V.</span> p. 53). Sixteen have dedications to the gods of the Greeks, and only -two to Apollo. We may conclude that a large percentage come from the Hellenium -and are therefore after 570. But this does not prove a late date for graffiti -generally. Of the sixteen dedications to the gods of the Greeks fifteen are on -black figure or black glaze vases: the other is on one of the 33 cups mentioned -above. This fact suggests that the dedications generally could have been dated -from the vases they are inscribed on if the data had been made available, and -that Gardner was fairly right in his main conclusion although wrong in his -method of reaching it. Of the Milesian fragments one has a dedication to Apollo, -of the Naukratite two (both from the old Southern “Temenos”) are to Aphrodite. -It is significant that among the finds of the reign of Amasis “the early local -pottery was disappointingly scarce” (<cite>B.S.A.</cite> <span class='fss'>V.</span> p. 57).

Even if there were, Spiegelberg’s explanation cuts both -ways. If, as the evidence has shown, there is a probability that Psammetichus -I had really been a vendor of something like mixing bowls, and got -his name from his occupation, some such aristocratic explaining away of the -plebeian name may perhaps have induced him and his successors to keep it, just -as Mrs Snooks in one of Wells’ stories became more than reconciled to her -name after it had been explained as an abbreviation of Sevenoaks and spelt -accordingly.</p> -</div> -<div class='footnote' id='f659'> -<p class='c007'><a href='#r659'>659</a>. <cite>Dem.

Babelon, in his account of the origin of money, rightly points out (<cite>Origines</cite>, -p. 167) that “in general the prince has at his disposal a greater quantity of -precious metal than any banker or merchant.” This fact does not however -affect our argument. As Babelon himself goes on to observe, the princes of this -period, like modern monarchs in the East, “had in reserve in their treasuries -enormous quantities of gold and silver ingots.” He cites Midas, Alyattes, -Croesus and Darius as coining according to their various requirements from -this reserve. But there is a point that Babelon does not touch. What started -these monarchs coining? If, as Babelon assumes, it was simply the fact that -the previous private coiners supplied bad coins, the position of coins is on a -par with that of any other commodity. We might expect to hear of kings who -became butchers and bakers to ensure their subjects good bread and good -meat. It is therefore more than doubtful whether the initiative is likely to -have come generally from the ruling sovereign. To imagine again a popular -clamour for state control, as is done by Babelon, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">ibid.</span></i> pp. 168–9, is probably -an anachronism. The platform would be too constructive and original for a -popular agitation. As a general rule constructive movements begin or at least -take shape with outstanding individuals. Parallels from later periods, such as -quoted by Babelon, p. 171, are dangerous. A populace can of course clamour -for the restoration of lost rights and advantages, that of a state coinage among -the rest. In the days that we are considering no precedents could be quoted -for a state currency. On the other hand, the situation as conceived either by -Babelon or myself implies outstanding individuals in the mercantile class. It -is surely among these that it is most natural to look for the beginnings alike -of a state coinage and of the new statesmanship that sprang up with it. This -need not, of course, imply that occasionally a monarch of the old regime did -not grasp the situation and himself institute a state coinage. Pheidon of Argos -is a case in point.</p> -</div> -<div class='footnote' id='f792'> -<p class='c007'><a href='#r792'>792</a>.

Note, however, that -he associates their “tyranny” with great wealth and commercial connexions. -“The Bacchiads too became tyrants, and being wealthy and many and of distinguished -family for some two hundred years they held rule and exploited the -market with impunity.

Somewhere about the time of Phalaris Sicily was invaded by a Carthaginian -army under a commander named Malchus, Justin <span class='fss'>XVIII.</span> 7. It has been suggested -that Phalaris was pre-eminently the leader of the Agrigentines against -the Punic peril (Bury, <cite>Hist. Greece</cite><sup>2</sup>, p. 297), and that he played a similar part -to that played during a later invasion by the Syracusan Dionysius. For this -suggestion there is no evidence whatsoever. There is no certainty either that -the invasion of Malchus occurred in the age of Phalaris or that Agrigentum was -endangered by it or even alarmed. On the other hand there are hints that -Phalaris was the reverse of anti-Carthaginian. The Semites of Carthage were -devoted to the cult of Moloch, in whose worship no small part was played by the -molten image of a calf and the offering to it of human sacrifices. Perhaps the -most likely origin of the story of the bull of Phalaris is to be sought in this -Moloch worship. The tyrant may have had a large Phoenician contingent -among his foreign employees and have very much shocked his Greek subjects -by allowing these Semites to practise Semitic rites in Agrigentum. Meyer, -however, <cite><span lang="de" xml:lang="de">Ges. d. Alt.</span></cite> <span class='fss'>II.</span> p. 682 n., suggests a connexion between the bull of -Phalaris and the Cretan bull cult.
