In the days of Kecrops and the first kings, down to the reign of Theseos, Attica was divided into communes, having their own town halls and magistrates. Except in case of alarm, the whole people did not assemble in council under the king, but administered their own affairs, and advised together in their several townships. Some of them at times even went to war with the king, as the Eleusinians under Eumolpos with King Erectheos. But when Theseos came to the throne, he, being a powerful as well as a wise ruler, among other improvements in the administration of the country, dissolved the councils and separate governments, and united all the inhabitants of Attica in the present city, establishing one council and town hall. They continued to live on their own lands, but he compelled them to resort to Athens as their metropolis i.e.

Go to Home Page for 15 Greek Heroes from Plutarch's Lives As geographers add notes in the margins of their maps, to the effect that regions beyond are dangerous and barren , I might say as well regarding those records available of lives from a past which is more distant than reliable history: only fiction and legends can be found there. Perhaps the purifying process of reason may reduce the following legends into an exact history. However, should they offend by refusing to be reduced to anything like probable fact, I hope that candid readers will indulge these stories of ancient times. Aegeus, the king of Athens, wanted a son to be heir to his kingdom. He went to the oracle at Delphi to ask advice on this matter. The statement of the oracle seemed to indicate that Aegeus should

Ancient History Sourcebook: Plutarch: Carneades Visit to Rome
from Life of Cato the Elder
In 155 BCE, the Athenians sent a delegation to Rome. It included three philosophers, among them Carneades. He was an important member of Plato's school, the Academy, which by this time had become a center of skepticism. Carneades shocked Rome by arguing convincingly for one argument one day, and then refuting all his arguments the following day. Cato the Censor reacted unfavorably - all three philosophers were sent back to Athens. This text is part of the Internet Ancient History Sourcebook . The Sourcebook is a collection of public domain and copy-permitted texts related to medieval and Byzantine history. Paul Halsall May 1998

Syncretism
From sygkretizein (not from sygkerannynai An explanation is given by Plutarch in a small work on brotherly love ("Opera Moralia", ed. Reiske, VII, 910). He there tells how the Cretans were often engaged in quarrels among themselves, but became immediately reconciled when an external enemy approached. "And that is their so-called Syncretism." In the sixteenth century the term became known through the "Adagia" of Erasmus , and came into use to designate the coherence of dissenters in spite of their difference of opinions, especially with reference to theological divisions. Later, when the term came to be referred to sygkerannynai , it was inaccurately employed to designate the mixture of dissimilar or incompatible things or ideas . This inexact use continues to some extent even today. (1) Syncretism is sometimes used to designate the fusion of pagan religions . In the East the intermixture of the civilizations of different nations began at a very early period. When the East was hellenized under Alexander the Great and the Diadochi in the fourth century B.C.

    Who Was Plutarch?:
    Plutarch is known for writing biographies of famous ancient people Since he lived in the first and second centuries A.D. he had access to material that is no longer available to us which he used to write his biographies. His material is easy to read in translation from the Greek. Shakespeare closely used Plutarch's Life of Anthony for his tragedy of Antony and Cleopatra
    Plutarch (c. A.D. 45-125):
    Plutarch traveled throughout Rome and the Mediterranean, but lived in Boeotia, in the town of Chaeronea, where he was born.
    Family and Life of Plutarch:
    Plutarch's father, a wealthy man, was Aristobulus, also a biographer. Plutarch studied philosophy, rhetoric and mathematics at the Academy in Athens. He was a student of the philosopher Ammonius. Plutarch traveled to Rome where he lectured on philosophy. In his hometown of Chaeronea he was a chief magistrate a director of a philosophical school. From about 95 he was a priest of Delphi.
    Works of Plutarch:
    Plutarch wrote and lectured. Seventy-eight of his pieces are preserved in the "Moralia," but his most famous work is the "Parallel Lives," which compares Greek and Roman statesmen. This work gained the attention of the Emperor Trajan. Even though Plutarch lived hundreds of years after many of his subjects, his information is our best source for many historical figures. This biographical project, he believed, helped him improve morally.

    Plutarch
    Mestrius Plutarchus (ca. 46- 127) was a Greek historian, biographer, and essayist. Born in the small town of Chaeronea, in the Greek region known as Boeotia, probably during the reign of the Roman Emperor Claudius, Plutarch travelled widely in the Mediterranean world, including twice to Rome. He had a number of influential Roman friends, including Soscius Senecio and Fundanus, both important Senators, to whom some of his later writings were dedicated. He lived most of his life at Chaeronea, and was initiated into the mysteries of the Greek god Apollo. However his duties as the senior of the two priests of Apollo at the Oracle of Delphi (where he was responsible for interpreting the auguries of the Pythia or priestess/oracle) apparently occupied little of his time - he led a most active social and civic life and produced an incredible body of writings, much of which is still extant. Among his approximately 227 works, the most important are the Bioi paralleloi ( Parallel Lives ), in which he recounts the noble deeds and characters of Greek and Roman soldiers, legislators, orators, and statesmen, and the Moralia, or Ethica, a series of more than 60 essays on ethical, religious, physical, political, and literary topics. Life Plutarch was the son of Aristobulus, himself a biographer and philosopher. In 66-67, Plutarch studied mathematics and philosophy at Athens under the philosopher Ammonius. Public duties later took him several times to Rome, where he lectured on philosophy, made many friends, and perhaps enjoyed the acquaintance of the emperors Trajan and Hadrian. According to the Suda lexicon (a Greek dictionary dating c. AD 1000), Trajan bestowed the high rank of an ex-consul upon him. Although this may be true, a report of a 4th-century church historian, Eusebius, that Hadrian made Plutarch governor of Greece is probably apocryphal.
