THE HOMICIDE COURTS<br />
One of the most striking features of homicide law was the range of<br />
available courts.<br />
There was a set of homicide courts, the most famous of which was the<br />
Areopagus Council, manned by former archons.<br />

ephetai at a variety of courts in and around Athens.
