A great deal of information has come to light over the past several
decades about the role of arbitration between the Greek states.
Arbitration and mediation were, in fact, central institutions in
Hellenistic public life. In this comprehensive study, Sheila Ager
brings together the scattered body of literary and epigraphical
sources on arbitration, together with up-to-date bibliographic
references, and commentary.
The sources collected here range widely; Ager presents an
exhaustive record of documents ranging from the settlement of a
minor territorial squabble between two tiny city-states to the
resolution of major conflicts separating the great powers of the
day. In addition, Ager's introduction sets the documents in
historical context and outlines distinctions among categories of
arbitration. The work also includes indices to literary passages,
inscriptions, persons, places, subjects, and Greek and Latin terms
in the documents. This collection of many previously inaccessible
texts will become a primary resource for any scholar or student
working in the field of Hellenistic history.
