Land were two important money-using institu tions in the public economy of classical J\thens. Not only did the silver mines of Athens produce her owl coinage. The leasing of the silver mines, together with the proceeds from the leasing of public land, produced cash which the State could widely redistribute. Demo cratic payments, other benefits to citizens in cash and in kind, money spent on the navy or on public building projects, were all important ways in \Vhich the money from these diftt:rent areas of activity-the non-landed and the landed-were recirculated in the economy.
