Abstract
ABSTRACT
The status of new citizens in the agreements of synoikismos, sympoliteia and isopoliteia
As part of a broader investigation into the phenomenon of political unifications (politographies) in the Hellenistic Greek world, this paper aims to offer some preliminary observations on the contribution that synoikismos, sympoliteia, and isopoliteia agreements can make to our understanding of ancient conceptions of citizenship. Taken as a whole, this category of documents reveals an extraordinary and detailed awareness of the issues arising from the incorporation of new citizens and highlights the areas in which the poleis – and thus their ruling elites – chose to legislate. Indirectly, they also shed light on the elements and prerogatives considered essential for the definition of the polites.
