ΑΤΤΙΚΑ. — DECREES

was a sum paid into court by the bringer of an in-
dictment, as a caution-money or pledge that the suit
was not wantonly instituted, but in all seriousness
(Meier u. Schom. Attisch. Process, p. 616, foil).
Line 16. If Bockh’s conjecture ήλιαστάς be correct,
then the absence of the article is quite natural : for
the tribunal would not of course consist of t/ic Heli-
asts, but of dikasts impanelled for the purpose out
of the whole heliastic body.

The fragment published in the Έφ. ’Λρχ., No. 3397,
contains several expressions which remind us of this
inscription:—ΦΡΟΡΟΣ, ENOXONENAIZEMIA (ένοχον
eivai ζημία), [ΓΤ]ΡΥΤΑΝΕΣ, [Τ^ΟΕΚΠΑΟ (τον ’έκπλου),
and others. But if the uncial text given by Pittakys
accurately represents the original (which is by no
means certain), the characters are not archaic enough
to have formed a portion of the inscription be-
fore us.
