The account given by Xenophon ofthe voyage of Iphikrates round the Peloponnese illuminates normal practice; Iphikrates was in a hurry and wanted to train his crews at the same time, but one can infer what was normal from ‘Xenophon's account: "When Iphikrates began his voyage round the Peloponnese, he took with him all tne equipment he needed for a naval battle. He left his large sai if he was sailing to battle, and made very litle use of his small sails even wher ‘the wind was favourable. By proceeding under cars in this way he made bis crews fiter and his ships faster. And when the expedition was due fr its morning meal at any particular place, he would order the leading ships back, round again to face the land and make them race ata signal for the shore... Again, if they were taking & meal on hostile teritory, he set the usual sentries on land but he also raised his ships’ masts and had men Keeping watch from the top of them. They had a far wider view from their point of vantage than they would have had from ground level... On daylight voyages he tained them to form ine ahead or line abreast at a signal, so that inthe course of their voyage they had practised and become skilled atthe manoeuvres needed in a naval battle before they reached the area of sea which they supposed tobe in enemy control.” (Kenophon, Helidnika 62.27-30) (One point, which does not emerge from t the treme was so used in really rough weather.

All three were noted for their splendid ship-sheds. The town itself was laid out on a regular grid pattem of strets by Hippodamos, anative of the Greek city of Miletos on the west coast of Asia Minor ‘where a similar street plan was also used. In contrast to Athens, notorious for inding streets, the harbour town must have looked rigid ight streets, well placed houses and open public areas. Besides the naval lations, the town boasted many of the armenities that Athens had, including a (of fortifications that were necessary to protect Athens’ trade and a theatre. By the middle ofthe fifth century the harbour was linked to Athens by Long Walls, ‘no mean feat of construction given the distance covered and the marshy character of the terrain at the 1s end. The population of Peiraious was mixed, for ot only did foreign traders lodge there temporarily but many of Athens’ resident aliens (metoikoi) lived at the port, some of whom were responsible for Athens’ (tage and ran businesses such as armouries and banking; the metoikot might also be grain-dealers or carry on such trades as fulling and baking. ‘This mixture of population meant that the shrines and sanctuaries that dotted 4 greater variety of worship than places less accessi- ble to foreign influence, and such non-Greck deities as Bendis and Kybele had 1g of Plato's Republic (2.46): T went down yesterday to the Peiraieus with Glaukon, son of Ariston.

(One ofthe best sources we have for the attitudes and prejudices ofthe ordinary people i ian society is the speeches from the law courts, and much ry sources and the ‘tragic’ stature of the great ‘as a slave and prostitute, and how her subsequent career took her Greece and brought her th men in the first rank of before she eventually settled down with Stephanos. Apollodoros’ Ihe denounces as a thteat and affront ide to citizen women, ‘An Athenian weding do Apollodaros’ words the average Athenian male's attitude co the subject under discussion” Counterpointing the speech are discussions of some of the prosecutor's points by three listening dikasts, Komias, Euergides and Strymodoros. Their reactions serve to bring out some of the attiudes and prejudices which the prosecutor was trying to arouse. The dikast dialogue is invented, but most of it is based closely on arguments in the speech, ‘The picture of the status of women in Athens given in Apollodoros’ prosecution of Neaira is balanced by the figure of a m3 wwas tradi ‘of a woman's de in terms of @ ‘woman in her concer for her husband and children In World of Athens: law-courts 6.38ff; Apollodoros 5.70, 6.45-6. Sources Demosthenes 59, The Prosecution of (For the dikast dialogue) Extracts from Plato; Aristophanes, Solon, 50-207 ‘Theoksitos, Demosthenes, Lysias ‘The best edition of the whole of the prosecution of Neaira, with text, facing Time to be taken Seven weeks M0 at Four: Women in Athenian society Sections Twelve to Fourteen: The prosecution of Neaira Introduction ‘These selections are adapted from the speech Kad Neatpag, The Prosed children of two Athenian ge. Apollodoros was therefore 4 ypu. He sketches 's pas to prove that she is an alien, but also makes great play ofthe fact that he waa slave and prostitute as well, thus making her ‘peetence'to Athenian wl goes on to show that Stephanos and at Athens was restricted i, and it was a jealously guarded citizenship. This evidence gives Apollodotos the occasion to claim that Neaica ‘and Stephanos are undermining the whole fabric of society rest in the matter as well, for he hed a 1e speech makes cleat ion, she would be sold into slavery: afer, which is why Stephanos is so heavily implicated a just happens to be the weak point through witieh ‘Stephanes. ‘The speech draws attention to@ number of important points about the Athenian ‘world, among which we draw especial a () Personal security for ones and foremost on being a ful ‘one’s property and one’s family depencled fist izen of the nbArc, In return for expressed most powerf outsiders forced ‘who had no dut ay in. The close Hak wl inhabitants felt with their local patron god, on whose protect sitong claim, could also be weakened by the intrusion of outsiders i) Athenians were extremely sensitive about their status in other people's eyes, In the face of a personal affront (however justified), an Athenian would be applauded for taking swift and decisive steps to gain revenge (remember that ty was some 500 years away from fifh-century Athens). Any citizen whose rights to citizenship had been put at risk (as Apollodoros" Sections Twelve to Fourteen: The prosecution of Neaira Mat had been by Stephanos) would be quick to seek retribution, on whatever grounds he could find, and he would not be afraid to explain that personal revenge was the motive for the attack (imagine the consequences of saying that 10a jury today). is dangerous to generalise about the status of women lodoros in this speech says what he males over the age of 30. He paints an unpleasant and quite unsympath picture of Nezira because he hopes the jury will respond favourably to and while we 's experience as a slave and by her efforts to g by marriage with Stephanos, Apollodoros clearly presumed that his audience's response would be very differnt. Again, Apollodoros' picture of citizen women as either highly virtwous ‘or rather weak-headed was not drawn because he necessarily believed it oF because it was the case. It was supposed to strike a chord in the hearts of feners ~ nothing more or less.

The Greek explanation lay in myth, Orestes, infected with biood-pollution for killing his mother, arrived in Athens on yéec. In order that he should not be excluded from he celebrations and that the people should not be pol luted, the king ordered that all rink their own wine from their own cups, We may prefer io explain the ritual rather as an attempt to puta boundary around the poten- tially destructive effects of too much alcohol.

Ifyou have read Apollodoros’ evidence on one side of the case, there is absolutely no doubt at all that Stephanos would have produced plenty of quite contrary evidence on the other side. Apollodoros” case rested on huis claim that by passing off Phang as free-born, Stephanos and Neaira have asserted the validity oftheir marriage and that this isan act of criminal collusion in whieh they are both implicated. His pleas fr the preservation of public morality against the threat of people like Neaira must have added considerable emotional \weight to his argument If the birth of citizen children from marriage was the sole criterion for judging whether two people were married or not, Apollodoros had not a leg to stand on, The fact that he still brought the case fe that there ‘were many other considerations which could sway the jury.
