Over the past 20 years, Boeotia has been the focus of intensive
archaeological investigation that has resulted in some
extraordinary epigraphical finds. The most spectacular discoveries
are presented for the first time in this volume: dozens of
inscribed sherds from the Theban shrine of Heracles; Archaic temple
accounts; numerous Classical, Hellenistic and Roman epitaphs; a
Plataean casualty list; a dedication by the legendary king Croesus.
Other essays revisit older epigraphical finds from Aulis,
Chaironeia, Lebadeia, Thisbe, and Megara, radically reassessing
their chronology and political and legal implications. The
integration of old and new evidence allows for a thorough
reconsideration of wider historical questions, such as ethnic
identities, and the emergence, rise, dissolution, and resuscitation
of the famous Boeotian koinon. Contributors include: Vassilios
Aravantinos, Hans Beck, Margherita Bonanno, Claire Grenet, Yannis
Kalliontzis, Denis Knoepfler, Angelos P. Matthaiou, Emily Mackil,
Christel Muller, Nikolaos Papazarkadas, Isabelle Pernin, Robert
Pitt, Adrian Robu, and Albert Schachter.
