In the first book in fifty years to tackle the rise of these so-called Greek federal states, Emily Mackil charts a complex, fascinating map of how shared religious practices and long-standing economic interactions facilitated political cooperation and the emergence of a new kind of state. Mackil provides a detailed historical narrative spanning five centuries to contextualize her analyses, which focus on the three best-attested areas of mainland Greece-Boiotia, Achaia, and Aitolia. The analysis is supported by a dossier of Greek inscriptions, each text accompanied by an English translation and commentary.Hellenistic Culture and SocietyCity-statesGreeceHistoryReligion and stateGreeceHistoryGreecePolitics and governmentTo 146 B.CElectronic books.City-statesHistory.Religion and stateHistory.320.938Mackil Emily Maureen1973-1040370MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462575103321Creating a common polity2463159UNINA
