THE DEMIOPRATA OF POLLUX X<br />
After having made a number <strong>of</strong> references in <strong>the</strong> early chapters <strong>of</strong> Book X to an<br />
unidentified Demiopr<strong>at</strong>a, Pollux <strong>at</strong> last (X, 96) observes in his disjointed way th<strong>at</strong><br />
this word in its general meaning was used in comedy and by Lysias, and <strong>the</strong>n adds:<br />
" On <strong>the</strong> Attic Stelai, loc<strong>at</strong>ed <strong>at</strong> Eleusis, is inscribed <strong>the</strong> property <strong>of</strong> those who dishonored<br />
<strong>the</strong> gods, which was sold by <strong>the</strong> st<strong>at</strong>e." ' His usual introduction to a cit<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
from this source is Ev 8E roTs ArqutoirparTot, but once (X, 148) he begins Ev 8E s<strong>at</strong><br />
'ATTLKaZg -rT4X<strong>at</strong>g, once (X, 40) EV roZs 'AXKL/3ua8OV, and once (X, 38) Ka'L 'AXKLW/3a80V<br />
8E KTX. In all <strong>the</strong>re are thirty-four such cit<strong>at</strong>ions: twelve <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se can be immedi<strong>at</strong>ely<br />
recognized as belonging to <strong>the</strong> Attic Stelai as we have <strong>the</strong>m, and most <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> rest<br />
are so clearly <strong>of</strong>fered by Pollux as items from <strong>the</strong> same list th<strong>at</strong> we can safely assume<br />
th<strong>at</strong> when he refers to <strong>the</strong> Demiopr<strong>at</strong>a he always means <strong>the</strong> Attic Stelai. Pollux<br />
supplies us with a number <strong>of</strong> items <strong>of</strong> furniture and equipment which apparently<br />
appeared in sections <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Stelai now lost; <strong>the</strong>se are collected below in Table A. In<br />
Table B are parallels between Onomasticon X and <strong>the</strong> present text <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Attic Stelai.<br />
