In this original study the author explores the purpose of and the motivation behind these payments, apparently exacted as a federal impost, and places them in a wider historical and economic context. Based on a close examination of the epigraphic and literary evidence, Taxing Freedom offers important insights into the nature and extent of slavery and manumission in Hellenistic and Roman Thessaly, the Thessalian fiscal machinery, and the ways by which Thessalian poleis intervened in the economic life of their citizens to secure revenues. 410 0$aMnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava.$pSupplementum.$pHistory and archaeology of classical antiquity ;$vv. 361. 606 $aTaxation$zGreece$zThessaly 606 $aSlaves$xEmancipation$zGreece$zThessaly 606 $aInscriptions, Greek$zGreece$zThessaly 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTaxation 615 0$aSlaves$xEmancipation 615 0$aInscriptions, Greek 676 $a336.2/7 700 $aZelnick-Abramovitz$b Rachel$0317709 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462700103321 996 $aTaxing freedom in Thessalian manumission inscriptions$92057812 997 $aUNINA
