Theban Diplomacy in 371 B.C
At the Peace Conference held at Sparta in 371 B.C. the Theban delegates swore oaths as Thebans, but on the following day they returned to ask for their oaths to be recorded in the name of Boeotia. As the principle of Boeotian independence had been an issue in 387/6 B.C. it is unlikely that domestic difficulty or diplomatic oversight led the Theban delegates into initial error in 371 B.C. Their apparent change of mind was a tactical move in a prec…
Diplomacy and Disunion in Ancient Greece
DISUNION WAS PERHAPS the besetting sin of ancient Greece. The Greeks made many attempts and devised measures to remedy their weaknesses. Ineffective though their solutions were, it is difficult to see how more could have been achieved on a co-operative basis. In the fifth century B.c. after the Persian Wars the facts of inter-state diplomacy were comparatively simple, for Athens was the leading naval power and Sparta was the leading Peloponnesian…

To submit the historical writings of Xenophon to close and detailed scrutiny is often an unrewarding task, yet it is well to bear in mind that at the time of the events under discussion Xenophon, who had been exiled from At…
Who ‘Signed’ Treaties in Ancient Greece
Treaties of course did not come into force by the appendage of signatures to documents, but after each of the contracting parties had sent envoys to administer the oaths of ratification to the authorities of the other state. In the Journal of Hellenic Studies for 1957 Andrewes and Lewis in an illuminating article on the Peace of Nicias wrote that in the early part of the fourth century B.C. it was the regular practice for Athenian treaties to spe…
