<layoutDesc><layout><p>As Lambert notes, the carving of the calendar has been skillfully executed: word-breaks are generally avoided, new entries in the columns of the calendar begin in new lines, and sections are thus carefully outlined. It remains particularly difficult to calculate the space missing to the left of column I on the principal face (Face A); this appears to have been to a degree variable (the numbers for estimated missing letters given here are approximative). See Lambert 2000: 47-50, for a full description and much more precise quantification of the layout of the stone. Non-stoichedon.</p>

The stone was found in 1895 in Kukunari in northeast Attica, near the Marathon plain and Oenoe (see Lambert 2000a: 44 n. 6, for a full account). The stone is now in the Epigraphical Museum in Athens (inv. no. 13308).</p>

<p>Edition here based on <bibl type="author_date" n="Lambert 2000a">Lambert 2000a</bibl>. Face B is not reprised here, but see Commentary. We very occasionally adopt a few further restorations in col. I than the text given in Lambert (see e.g. col. I, lines 31, 49, 52), but these are justified in the Commentary. We do not underdot letters that were clearly seen by Kirchner.</p>

<div type="commentary">
<head>Commentary</head>
<p>This is the sacrificial calendar of the Tetrapolis, which included four so-called "poleis" (perhaps originally independent cities): Marathon, Trikorynthos, Oinoe, and Probalinthos. Lambert (2000: 43 n. 3) thinks that though official documents from this group are few and far between (other than the present calendar), the four demes acted together as a collectivity in this case and perhaps others (rather than as a Cleisthenic <foreign>trittys</foreign>). For a detailed treatment of the Tetrapolis, its topography and territory, see Ismard 2015. For the prominent role of heroes in this local calendar, see esp. Ekroth. In general, the series of articles by Lambert listed in the bibliography above provide much more detail than the Commentary here can hope to achieve: they are thus worth keeping in hand when looking at this text. </p>
<p>The arrangement and the layout of the calendar appears to be intricately tied with its character as a composite document of this multifaceted polity. On Face A (the only face included here), we have two columns of calendars. Each calendar was apparently divided into ritual or sacrificial sequences (δραμοσύναι), after which we find months in their expected chronological order at Athens, though some may be skipped altogether and the months are seldom accompanied by precise dates (although some dates may have occurred in the lacunae, see Commentary below) for the latter, cp. also the style of the sacrificial calendar of Thorikos, <ref target="CGRN_32">CGRN 32</ref>). In col. I, with the beginning missing and with its generally fragmentary character, the political or institutional character of the sacrifices is far from clear. Lambert (2000: 65) believes this was a separate category of ritual sequences from col. II, rightly noting the absence of priestly remuneration (ἱερώσυνα) in this column among other systematic differences. Von Prott hypothesised that col. I represented the sacrificial calendar for the post-Cleisthenic structure of the Tetrapolis itself (rather than for the individual demes making it up), a suggestion which finds some favour in Lambert's discussion. At the beginning of the second column, we find the calendar of Marathon itself (col. II, lines 1-2) for an annual sequence, running to line 33 (the heading concerning the <foreign>demarchos</foreign> is mysteriously repeated in col. II, line 23). Further sequences envisaged were clearly biennal, since we then find the calendar for the deme of Marathon referring to two sets of sacrifices made every other year: "the following (i.e. sacrifices) in the one year, first sequence" (col. II, lines 34-38, but probably referring to the current year), and "the following sacrifices are made in the other year, the one after the archon Eubolos (i.e. after the year of publication of the stele), the magistrate for the Tetrapolis, later ritual sequence" (col. II, lines 39-53; for a discussion of this official and his dating, see Lambert 2000a: 67-68). For biennial cycles in Attic calendar, cp. the sacrificial calendar of the city of Athens, <ref target="CGRN_45">CGRN 45</ref>. What follows is the fragmentary beginning of the calendar of the deme of Trikorynthos (col. II, lines 54-56) with an again annual sequence of sacrifices. If Lambert's reconstruction of the whole stele is correct, not much is missing at the top of the stele and so the extant text would be at (or very close to) the top, thus Marathon's calendar will have come first in col. II, followed then by the demes of Trikorynthos, and the now missing Oinoe and Probalinthos at the bottom. Additionally, nearly all of the calendars are divided into trimesters (three-month periods, τρίμηνος), whose purposes is not immediately discernable, but which may be connected with the financing of the sacrifices (see immediately below; for some exceptions to this arrangement, see the biennial sequence in col. II, lines 39-53).</p>
<p>Face B, not reprised here, contains a very fragmentary list of contributions by individuals. This probably represents a subscription list, i.e. a list of people that helped fund the sacrifices for the demes: see Lambert 2018 for discussion. For the role of the <foreign>demarchos</foreign> in the performance of deme sacrifices, compare especially <ref target="CGRN_32">CGRN 32</ref> (calendar of Thorikos) and <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref> (of Erchia).</p>
<p>A few features of the calendar also warrant some general remarks here. For the frequent preliminary sacrifices to the goddess Kourotrophos, always of piglets, see Pirenne-Delforge 2004 and cp. the sacrificial calendar of Erchia, <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>. As with other contemporaneous deme calendars, such as again that of Erchia, the sacrificial calendar of the Marathonian Tetrapolis is also concerned with accounting (see also above on Face B). The prices listed for sacrificial animals are not inscribed in a separate column, but appear after each itemised expense in each entry, often preceded by a form of punctuation or by empty space to demarcate the numerals in question. The prices for sacrificial animals are relatively consistent throughout the extant calendar, and generally help to identify the probable gender of the animals in question: 150 dr. for a bovine (perhaps a bull, but we might have expect ταῦρος; see col. II, line 8, for this price, occurring only once and inscribed in a rasura: perhaps only a special specimen was intended in this case) and 90 dr. for a castrated male or a cow (for a probably pregnant animal of the same price, cf. col. II, line 9); 70 dr. for a pig (or a pregnant sow); 12 dr. for goats (but 15 dr. for an all-black kid). The variation between the encountered prices of 11 dr. and 12 dr. for a sheep (ὄϊς) probably indicates the difference between a female and a male sheep, especially since the animals of 11 dr. are almost exclusively offered to goddesses (cp. the sacrificial calendar at Erchia, <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, where we presumably have 10 dr. for a female sheep and 12 dr. for an uncastrated male sheep). The invariance between 12 dr. for an ὄϊς and 12 dr. for a κριός underlines that there was no difference in price between a castrated male sheep (here translated as wether) and uncastrated ram (as the term κριός properly indicates). There is also a variation in price between of 16-17 dr. for a pregnant sheep; 3 dr. is the standard price for piglets. The amounts budgeted for priestly remuneration vary from about 1-7 dr.; for cash ἱερώσυνα in Attica, see here esp. <ref target="CGRN_57">CGRN 57</ref> (Aixone), with further discussion.</p>
<p>Column I</p>
<p>Lines 4-12: According to Lambert (2000: 49), these lines contained a set of sacrifices in the fourth trimester of a particular sequence, though oddly they are the first preserved at the beginning of this column. In line 6, the epithet Prakterios, meaning "efficacious", is rare and poetic (it is found of Tyche in Aesch. <title>Suppl.</title> 523); here, presumably a god is meant (cp. also the related epithet πράκτωρ, used of Zeus and Aphrodite in S. <title>Tr.</title> 251 and 861 respectively). In line 8, for a discussion of the possible identification of the tower in question, see again Lambert. In line 10, Lambert notes that both Zeus and Hermes would be good possibilities, though short for the line: cp. esp. the sacrifice of a ram to Hermes in the agora at Erchia, <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, col. Α, lines 52-56 + col. Β, lines 45-54 + col. Γ, lines 54-58 + col. Δ, lines 47-52 + col. Ε, lines 47-58 (4 Thargelion); a short date + Hermes or Zeus remains a good possibility for a restoration here. In line 11, the restoration may either be ἑνδέκατει or δωδέκατει. If the 11th was meant, then the occasion would presumably be a local one as no other evidence for this day survives; if the 12th, then a connection with the festival of Demeter and Kore or Athena (or both) called the Skira may be envisaged (see Mikalson p. 170, for the sources; Parker, p. 480). Given that the god here is Zeus Horios ("of the Boundaries") and that the Skira clearly involved a procession in the countryside, a celebration on the 12th may be thought to be more likely here (see further Lambert). For another sacrifice to Zeus Horios, see the calendar of Erchia, <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, col. Ε, lines 22-30 (16 Posideon).</p>
<p>Lines 13-19: These lines apparently form a separate section in this calendar, a prose passage that it remarkably different from the style of the lists in the rest of the document. See Lambert (2000: 51-53) for a detailed discussion and the plausible hypothesis that this section made reference to different sources of authority that were specified (ὡς γέγραπται, line 15), probably on stelai (cf. ἐν ταῖς, line 16) at three locations: by the Eleusinion, in Kynosoura, and by the Herakleion. For an alternative reading, see Humphreys; cf. Lambert 2014: 5, for a response. These three places no doubt constituted the major sanctuaries of the Tetrapolis. It should particularly be recalled that Pausanias reports that the people of Marathon reckoned that they were the first to recognise and worship Herakles as a god (Paus. 1.15.3: Ἡρακλῆς ἐνομίσθη θεός; cf. 1.32.4). Though the hero-god is not otherwise manifest in the fragmentary calendar, he must have been the focus of some celebrations in the local community.</p>
<p>Lines 20-38: Lambert's hypothesis about lines 13-19 (see above), entails that the three units which follow in these lines would be derived from the three sources of authority in question. Lines 20-22 would thus relate to what was written, probably on a stele at the Eleusinion, and fall in the fourth trimester of the calendar (the sacrifice cannot be reconstructed). Lines 23-31 would then be a more elaborate sequence deriving from Kynosoura. Here, a sacrifice to Apollo Apotropaios would fall in the first trimester, on a date in the first third of Hekatombaion (as we gather from ἱσταμένου). The god is honoured at Erchia half a year later, on the 8th of Gamelion, but in close connection with rites for Apollo on the 7th of Gamelion also, see <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, col. Α, lines 23-36 + col. Γ, lines 31-37 + col. Ε, lines 31-46 (Gamelion 7-8; see also Gamelion 9). Since the 7th of Hekatombaion is the festival of Apollo Hekatombaios (see Mikalson, p. 26), we may still suppose that the 7th (originally proposed as a restoration by Wilamowitz) or adjacent days are plausible candidates for the date here. In lines 27-28, a sacrifice of a pregnant sheep is offered, probably to a goddess, in Pyanopsion. As Lambert reports, [Μητρὶ Θε]ῶν proposed by Scullion and Parker, is too short. To our eyes, it remains likely, since we might still restore a short date at the beginning of the line (cf. line 11), but cp. col. I, line 43, with Lambert ad loc.: perhaps one may also think of a heroine at a place ending in -idai? For the sacrifice of pregnant animals, see here the further references provided in <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref> (Erchia), on Face A, lines 13-17, etc. (Boedromion 27). In lines 29-31, the recipients of two sacrifices in the month Mounychion cannot be identified. As von Prott notes, the second offering was probably anomalously, but quite simply, listed as a [ἱερ]εῖον or as [τέλ]ειον: its price accords with that for a castrated or uncastrated male sheep (elsewhere in these calendars, called ὄϊς or κριός respectively). Finally, lines 32-37 or 38 would preserve a sequence deriving from the source of authority "next to the Herakleion". At least four sacrifices, again in the month Mounychion, are listed here, but they are regrettably difficult to identify. The fact that a goddess (given the ending in -ηι) receives a male sheep (as we infer from the price of 12 dr., see Commentary above) in line 35, might suggest an identification with Demeter or Persephone/Kore; see also below on col. I, line 59, and col. II, lines 27-29.</p>
<p>Lines 39-55: The lines again appear to form a separate unit in the calendar. Lambert (2000: 55) proposes the following possible interpretations: a biennial sequence either preceding or following the preceding units discussed above (esp. given the mention of a perhaps prior δραμοσύνη in line 39); an altogether different sequence in the calendar, e.g. a quadrennial one. Few of the sacrifices in this larger sequence can be reconstructed with any certainty—for instance the expensive bovine offered in line 41, but we may point to some of the more plausible cases. In line 45, during Mounychion, Lambert discards the possibility of Apollo Nymphagetes, viewing the name as too short (for the god, see here Gamelion 7-8 at Erchia, <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, col. Α, lines 23-36; col. Γ, lines 31-37; Ε, lines 31-46); and suggests Pan as another possibility given "the aetiological connection between the battle of Marathon and the Attic cult of Pan, and the cave of Pan and the Nymphs at Oinoe". Both may have been combined with a (short) precise date in the month. In line 47, we should think either of a sacrifice to a hero located by a river (Lambert) or of river-god known either by the name or the epithet Potamos (for a Aleon Potamos, a divinised river, cp. <bibl type="abbr" n="LSAM">LSAM</bibl> 25 and 26 at Erythrai). In line 49, we note Persephone (Pherephatte) as a strong candidate for a restoration, which would fill some of the available space: the goddess is distinctive in receiving these male animals, cp. the Commentary on lines 20-38 above and the sacrificial calendar of Athens, <ref target="CGRN_45">CGRN 45</ref>, Face A, fr. 3, col. 3, lines 63-64, and also here Kore in col. II, line 44. In line 52, we adopt the plausible suggestion of von Prott of a sacrifice taking place in Athens, "in the city". Finally, in lines 53-55, a sacrifice to Athena Hellotis probably takes place in Skirophorion; see below on col. II for others to the same goddess in the following month of Hekatombaion.</p>
<p>Column II</p>
<p>Lines 1-4: This represents the beginning of the annual sequence (as one may infer from the explicit references to biennial sequences from line 34 onwards) in the calendar of the deme of Marathon and probably little is missing since the month Boedromion (month 3 in Athens) is found in line 5. Lambert envisages the possibility of restoring the goddess Kourotrophos in line 3, since she often receives piglets as preliminary sacrifices (see also above; but see also below line 28 for the Moirai receiving the same). For the cult table offered to heroes, see Ekroth and cf. also here <ref target="CGRN_13">CGRN 13</ref> (Selinous), Face A, lines 14-16.</p>
<p>Lines 5-6 (Boedromion): Missing here is the recipient of an ox and wether. The ritual must take place before a deadline, namely the festival of the Eleusinian Mysteries; these took place from the 13th until probably 24th of Boedromion (see Mikalson, p. 65); accordingly, the ritual here must have taken place from Boedromion 1-12. For further discussion of the date and character of the Mysteries, see here <ref target="CGRN_8">CGRN 8</ref> and <ref target="CGRN_45">CGRN 45</ref>, Face A, fr. 3. Note that the Genesia were celebrated on the 5 of Boedromion and that the anniversary of the victory of Marathon was celebrated on the 6th of Boedromion (cf. Mikalson, p. 49-50).</p>
<p>Lines 7-10 (Posideon): Missing first here is the recipient of a more expensive bovine costing 150 dr. (a bull?) and a wether (for the possibility that the 150 dr. are an error by overcorrection, see Lambert). The goddess Ge ἐν Γύαις (literally "in the fields") receives a pregnant cow during this midwinter, presumably to prepare the earth for the coming spring (see above on lines 20-37 for pregnant animals). The <foreign>telete</foreign> mentioned here must be a ceremony or a festival rather than a personified goddess, as is well argued by Pirenne-Delforge 2016. The character of the offerings on the occasion remains problematic due to the uncertainty of the reading of the following word: <foreign>spulia</foreign> or <foreign>spudia</foreign>? We tentatively follow Solders’ hypothesis that this is an erroneous form or unknown contracted form of σπυρίδια "small baskets" (see Lambert 2000: 59, for discussion; cp. also the problematic reading of σπυριχεια at <ref target="CGRN_21">CGRN 21</ref>, Athens, line 6). At any rate, the cost for these offerings was not insignificant, 40 dr., and it remains to be satisfactorily explained.</p>
<p>Lines 11-16 (Gamelion): Rites in this month include a pregnant sheep for the goddess Daira, as well as offerings for Ge "at the oracle", for Zeus Hypatos, Ioleos, and a certain Hero Pheraios. For the figure of Daeira, see the regulation from Paiania, <ref target="CGRN_25">CGRN 25</ref>, Face 1, line 16. The "oracle" with which the goddess Ge was associated remains unclear. For Zeus Hypatos, worshipped in Athens also on the Acropolis, see Paus. 1.26.5 and 8.2.3, who reports that animal sacrifices and libations of wine were forbidden in this cult (for an altar of Zeus Hypatos Athenaios, see also <bibl type="abbr" n="IGASMG V">IGASMG V</bibl> 38, from Classical Velia, and cf. also <bibl type="abbr" n="IG XII.5">IG XII.5</bibl> 183, a boundary stone from Paros). For the hero Ioleos, see Kearns. For Pheraios, little is known except that he may have come from a local homonym of the placename Pherai.</p>
<p>Lines 17-18 (Elaphebolion 10): Another sacrifice to probably Ge "at the oracle" takes place on this day. Lambert notes that it has no obvious connection with the first day of the City Dionysia, which fell also on this day (see Mikalson, p. 126). Perhaps we may still rethink the restoration in line 17: Manteios can be an epithet (cf. <bibl type="abbr" n="I.Ephesos">I.Ephesos</bibl> 1024, 2nd century AD, there of Apollo, but in the present context Dionysus also remains a possibility: he would be a particularly suitable recipient for a billy-goat, cp. <ref target="CGRN_21">CGRN 21</ref>, Athens, lines 17-18, <ref target="CGRN_57">CGRN 57</ref>, Aixone, lines 9-10, and <ref target="CGRN_116">CGRN 116</ref>, Lindos). The offering is intriguingly an animal that is described as "all-black". The singularity of the animal recalls, though it is also different from, the offering of an "all-black" female lamb to Hera Thelchinia at Erchia, see <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, col. Α, lines A6-11 (Metageitnion 20).</p>
<p>Lines 19-26 (Mounychion): As Lambert notes (with refs.), the hero Aristomachos is well expected here, as he was buried near the Dionysion at Marathon. For the hero Neanias, see Parker (p. 71 and 208-209). The placename Drasileia is plausible, but unknown. The hero "by the Hellotion" was worshipped near the sanctuary of Athena Hellotis; for sacrifices to this goddess, see above col. I, lines 38-55 and below, lines 34-42.</p>
<p>Lines 27-29 (Thargelion): Achaia is an epithet of Demeter, literally "Achaean", and here the goddess intriguingly seems to receive both a ram and a female animal (θήλεα), no doubt a female sheep, as we infer from the price of 11 dr. (though the reason for this exceptional explicit mention of the gender remains unclear; perhaps other traditional offerings to this goddess were <foreign>a contrario</foreign> male). As mentioned above (see col. I, 38-55), the ram is often offered to Persephone/Kore: is it perhaps conceivable that the two offerings for the goddess here represent an implicit distinction between Kore and Demeter respectively? Cp. the Hagne Theos (probably an unusual appellation for Persephone/Kore) at Aixone, who had both a female and a male priest, the male aspect of the cult apparently being connected with Plouton/Hades, <ref target="CGRN_57">CGRN 57</ref>, lines 23-28. For Demeter Achaia in Attica, see Hdt. 5.61 (a sanctuary of the Gephyreis), Ar. <title>Achar.</title> 708-709 (with schol.), and the civic priesthood attested by <bibl type="abbr" n="IG II²">IG II²</bibl> 5153 (though Roman imperial in date). For the cult of the Moirai, see Pirenne-Delforge and Pironti.</p>
<p>Lines 30-33 (Skirophorion): Before the festival of the Skira, that is to say, before the 12th of Skirophorion (see Mikalson, p. 170), a number of figures are to be worshipped annually: the hero Hyttenios, the eponym of Hyttenia (the older name for the Tetrapolis, see Lambert 2014); the Tritopatres (see also below, lines 51-53), and the Akamantes (figures who, along with the hero Akamas, son of Theseus, gave their name to one of the Attic tribes, Akamantis; for the Akamantes, see also here <ref target="CGRN_99">CGRN 99</ref>, Cyrene, line 21). The hero Hyttenios intriguingly receives ὡραῖα, seasonal fruits, which in the summertime period of Skirophorion, may have included the first-fruits of agricultural produce from the deme; for ὡραῖα, see also here <ref target="CGRN_60">CGRN 60</ref> (Thera), lines 14-15. </p>
<p>Lines 34-38 (prior biennial sequence, Hekatombaion): Athena Hellotis ("she who captures") is an intriguing goddess, known principally here in Attica, where she receives an elaborate offering during this phase of the biennial cycle: an ox and three sheep. As a scholia to Pindar (<title>O</title>. 13.56) attests, she had a particular connection with Marathon, at least by the Classical period: Ἑλλωτία δ᾽ ἕπτακις, τὴν προσηγορίαν φασὶ ταύτην ἐσχηκέναι τὴν Ἀθηνᾶν ἀπὸ τοῦ ἐν Μαραθῶνι ἕλους, ἔνθα ἵδρυται. But Pindar is speaking of a festival in Corinth (worship in Crete and at Argos are also attested; for the latter, cf. <bibl type="abbr" n="SEG">SEG</bibl> 11, 352). The role of a group of officials called Daphnephoroi, typically involved in the cult of Apollo, is not clear where the festival of Athena Hellotis is concerned (cp. perhaps the focus on crowns during the occasion mentioned by Seleuc. ap. Ath. 15.678a, though they were apparently of myrtle in Crete and Corinth).</p>
<p>Lines 39-42 (later biennial sequence, Hekatombaion): Athena Hellotis is honoured more modestly during this sequence; it is thus clear that the principal festival is the one described in lines 34-38, above.</p>
<p>Lines 43-47 (later biennial sequence, Metageitnion): (Demeter) Eleusinia here receives a cow, while Kore is offered a ram and also three piglets (for the sacrifice of three piglets in the sacrificial calendar of Corinth, see <ref target="CGRN_1">CGRN 1</ref> A, lines 2-3—possibly to this same goddess, as we argue there); these rites may parallel those for Demeter and Kore found above, col. II, lines 27-29. Zeus Anthales is only known here, though his epithet might superficially suggest a connection with Demeter and Kore, and the rites of "flowering" or the Antheia; on that festival, see <ref target="CGRN_25">CGRN 25</ref> (Paiania), Face A, lines 7-8, 29, and <ref target="CGRN_32">CGRN 32</ref> (Thorikos), lines 38-39, but the timing is quite different (Metageitnion is in the autumn, not the spring as would be expected of the Antheia and other such rites; see immediately below).</p>
<p>Lines 48-50 (later biennial sequence, Anthesterion): In this sequence, it would seem that we are clearly dealing with springtime agricultural rites for Demeter. (Demeter) Eleusinia receives a pregnant sow (see above, lines 27-30, on pregnant animals); (Demeter) Chloe "by the land of Meidylos" (a personal name, but perhaps a hero?), also receives a pregnant sow. For Chloe and the festival of the Chloia, see again here <ref target="CGRN_32">CGRN 32</ref> (Thorikos), lines 38-39 (in Elaphebolion).</p>
<p>Lines 51-53 (later biennial sequence, Skirophorion): Once again, before the Skira (Skirophorion 12), we find another series of offerings. First, we find a hero called Galios ("Straw"?), about whom little is known. The price relating to a "Well" here is enigmatic; it might be explained as a fee given to officials for cleaning a well in a sanctuary, or used for some of these rituals: see Lambert 2018. The Tritopatres in this biennial cycle additionally receive a table filled with offerings, in addition to the sheep given annually (col. II, line 32). Intriguingly, this succession of rites and the midsummer timing of the rituals form an approximate parallel with the rites for the Impure and Pure Tritopatres at Selinous, cf. <ref target="CGRN_13">CGRN 13</ref>, Face A.</p>
<p>Lines 53-56: The beginning of the calendar of the deme of Trikorynthos is badly preserved. Only a pair of sacrifices in Metageitnion is extant, to Hera, probably accompanied by Kourotrophos (the latter goddess would surely be expected to have received a piglet costing 3 dr., as elsewhere in the calendar). Hera Telchinia was honoured on the 20th of Metageitnion at Erchia, <ref target="CGRN_52">CGRN 52</ref>, col. Α, lines 6-13, though she received a distinctive sacrifice on that occasion; still, we may well think of a roughly contemporaneous celebration of the goddess at Trikorynthos also.</p>
