This regional study looks at the topography and epigraphy of
Megaris, the territory between Attica, Corinth and Boetia, focusing
on the Post-Classical periods. Philip Smith examines in turn, the
archaeological, literary and epigraphic evidence for the region,
compiling a useful catalogue of sites on the Megarid, with numerous
maps and plans. All inscriptions cited are included in an appendix.
In conclusion Smith posits an unusually stable transition between
Classical and Hellenistic, with the region possibly even witnessing
economic growth. From the epigraphic evidence observations are made
as to the administrative and religious structures of Megarian
society.
