Description
The Phratries of Attica is an indispensable work for students of Greek and Athenian history and anthropology, providing the first comprehensive account in English of the Attic phratries. These hereditary groups of citizens played a crucial role in regulating access to Athenian citizenship. S. D. Lambert adopts an innovative view in his argument that phratries reflected the democratic norm of the era 450-250 B.C.E., rather than being dominated by aristocrats.
