In the Hellenistic period certain Greek temples and cities came to be declared "sacred and inviolable." Asylia was the practice of declaring religious places precincts of asylum, meaning they were immune to violence and civil authority. The evidence for this phenomenon--mainly inscriptions and coins--is scattered in the published record. The material has never been collected and presented in one publication until now. Kent J. Rigsby lays out these documents and discusses their historical implications in a substantial introduction. He argues that while a hopeful intention of military neutrality lay behind the institution of asylum, the declarations did not in fact change military behavior. Instead, "declared inviolability" became a civic and religious honor for which cities across the Greek world competed during the third to first centuries B.C.

Ce recueil d'articles en épigraphie grecque est destiné à honorer l'œuvre de Stephen V. Tracy dont la recherche méticuleuse sur les "mains" - ou styles - des graveurs a transformé notre perception des inscriptions d'Attique et d'au-delà. Les vingt-neuf érudits qui ont contribué à ce volume présentent des articles qui dévoilent de nouvelles inscriptions ou de nouvelles études sur des textes connus depuis longtemps, mais aussi traitent de questions historiques, religieuses et sociales. Ainsi sont étudiées la Grèce, la Mer Egée et l'Asie Mineure occidentale sur une période qui s'étend de l'époque archaïque à l'Empire romain. Le point commun de ces Mélanges réside dans le caractère central de l'épigraphie, tant dans les problèmes soulevés que dans la conviction qu'un soin minutieux porté au moindre détail d'un témoignage épigraphique peut élargir et enrichir notre compréhension de l'histoire grecque. This collection of studies in Greek epigraphy honors the work of Stephen V. Tracy. His meticulous research on the hands of Attic letter-cutters has transformed the way we think about Greek inscriptions in Attica and beyond. The twenty-nine scholars who have contributed to this volume offer papers ranging from publication of new inscriptions and studies of others long-known to wide-ranging discussions of historical, religious, and social matters. Chronologically and geographically they cover Greece, the Aegean, and western Asia Minor from the Archaic period to the Roman Empire. What unites the work here offered to Tracy is the centrality of epigraphy to the questions addressed and conviction that careful attention to even the smallest details of the epigraphic evidence can advance our understanding of the Greek past in rich and unexpected ways.
