I have used square brackets for words that are no longer preserved in the surviving text; round brackets for parentheses in the original; and curly brackets for places where I have translated or explained technical terms. Readers might like to be reminded here of the monetary units that occur in these texts:

In the fifth century BG I drachma was the daily wage for a skilled labourer.

Sacrificial Calendar from the Attic Deme of Thorikos (430s BC?)

While the state of Athens had its sacrificial calendar, the constituent demes of Attica each had their own, interlocking calendars (above, pp. 28–30). There follows the calendar of Thorikos, which lies at the south–east of Attica. The sacrifices are organised under the twelve Attic months (see above, Fig. 2.g). The sacrifices here have both central and local interest. The layout of the translation indicates the (hypothetical) grouping of sacrifices.
