ABSTRACT

At the end of the Peloponnesian War, the victorious Spartans imposed on the defeated Athenians an oligarchic regime known as The Thirty, who ruled by terror and were quickly overthrown after a brief civil war. The subsequent restoration of the democracy was accompanied in 403/2 by a reconciliation agreement, in which the democratic party of the Piraeus, who had defeated the tyrants, showed remarkable restraint in refraining from seeking revenge on the oligarchic party of the City and agreeing 'not to recall past wrongs'. Carawan points to a conflict between the provisions of 2b and 4, where the two communities of Eleusis and Athens are firmly separated after a brief window of opportunity, and that of 5a. Clause 6a contains the well-known expression 'it is not allowed for anyone to recall wrong for what is past against anyone'. The Reconciliation Agreement concerned public suits from the archonship of Eucleides (403/2).
