jj.ere^ovTa'; tcop kolpwp, kt\.x to, koivol is a phrase in common use
to denote political rights, and, if it has that meaning here, refers
to a class of foreigners, non-residents, who by treaty or special
decree were endowed with such rights as would entitle them to
participate in the festival of the Artemisia, and when sacrifice
was made to Hermes.37
