    § a100 Amphisbetein kai parakataballein: those who lay claim to inheritances are said to contest or lay claim with a deposit, the former denying that the inheritance was liable to decision on grounds that the deceased had a son, whether by birth or adoption, and the latter saying that, on grounds that he died childless, it was more just for them to have the inheritance than for him who received it, either because they were kin or because they were heirs in accordance with a will. So Demosthenes and Hypereides made clear concerning parakataballein (laying claim with a deposit).

  2. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a101

    § a101 Amphissa: Demosthenes in For Ktesiphon. A city in Lokris. Aristotle in the Constitution of the Opuntians says thus: “ Andraimon was the founder, and they named it Amphissa owing to the fact that the place is ringed round with mountains.”.

    § a111 Anathesthai (to take back): Antiphon in On Concord: “to take back one's life as if a draught-piece is not possible,” for'to live life anew, having changed one's mind over one's former life.' Said by way of metaphor from those playing draughts. Plato in Hipparchos or Lover of Profit.

  19. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a118

    § a118 Anaktes kai anassai (lords and ladies): Isokrates in Euagoras. The orator seems to mention a certain custom in Cyprus.

  29. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a128

    § a128 Andokidou Hermes ( Andokides' Herm): Aischines in Against Timarchos: “then, that the so-called'Herm of Andokides' was not Andokides' but that it was a dedication of the tribe Aigeis.” And Andokides himself in On The Mysteries has said that the dedication belonged to the tribe Aigeis, so that Douris is mistaken in saying that it was Andokides'.

    § a134 Anelousa gar ton nomom: For having overturned the law, it elected him for itself: Demosthenes in Against Androtion says (this); but since it is unclear and defective, different people interpret different ways. In the Attic (Mss?) the phrase appeared two ways, the one thus: “for having overturned this law, it elected her,” meaning'for having transgressed this law, it granted a vote concerning it(self), as to whether it should crown it(self);' and the other: “for having overturned this law, it elected that man, taking him for itself.”.

  36. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a135

  42. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a141

    § a141 Antheia: that she is a prostitute is clear. But perhaps it should be written' Anteia' with tau, since we find it thus in Lysias.

    § a142 Anthemokritos: Isaios in Against Kalydon refers to “the bath that is near Anthemokritos' statue,” that is to say near the Thriasian Gate. This man was a herald of the Athenians, but he was slain by the Megarians for forbidding them from working the sacred land of the two goddesses.

    § a153 Antigrapheus: the one who is appointed in charge of those paying certain funds to the state, so that these are copied (or checked?): Demosthenes in Against Androtion and Aischines in Against Ktesiphon.

  55. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a154

    § a154 Antigraphe: in a special sense in settlements of inheritances it is called an'antigraphe' whenever one claims, on grounds that the decedent is childless, that the estate belongs to oneself by family relation or gift. But in general, in public suits and private, the litigants' documents, which they submitted concerning the matter, both those of the prosecutor and those of the defendant, (are called) an antigraphe — and the witness testimonies. Demosthenes, Against Stephanos, and Hypereides. Plato in the Apology of Socrates calls the same thing'antomosia' (affidavit) and'antigraphe.'.

  56. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a155

    § a155 Antithesis: Isokrates in Panathenaikos. Antithesis is a figure of speech in which opposites oppose one another, either by part or on the whole — by part, as Demosthenes (says) in For Ktesiphon: “You used to teach letters, but I went to school,” and so forth; on the whole, everything relating to everything, as the same Demosthenes, in Against Meidias, (says) from “he anyway (was struck) by a friend” up to "(it was necessary) to enter because I was choregos." The same figure is also called “antitheton”, as Aischines (says) in the defense On the Embassy.

  57. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a156

    § a156 Antikyra: Lysias in Against Medon. Perhaps it is a nickname. Antiphanes in On Prostitutes says, “They called (her) Antikyra because she used to drink with men who were wild and crazy. Others (say it was) because Nikostratos the doctor left her much hellebore when he died.

  58. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a157

  64. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a163

    § a163 Anorthiazon (they were shouting aloud): Andokides. For'they were speaking, shouting shrilly.' Homer: “Standing there, the goddess issued a great and terrible cry, shrilly, to the Achaeans, and into each man's heart she put great strength to wage war and to battle unceasingly.”.

  67. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a166

    § a166 Axoni (on the axle): the laws of Solon were written on wooden (tablets rotating on) axles. Demosthenes in Against Aristokrates: “as has been said on the axle.” They were, as Polemon says in Against Eratosthenes, four-sided in shape and they are kept in the prytaneion, written on all their parts. Sometimes they create a three-sided appearance, whenever they incline to the narrow point of the angle.

  68. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a167

    § a167 Aopta: for'unseen' and'not seen, but having seemed to be seen': Antiphon, On Truth book 1.

  69. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a168

    § a168 Apage (arrest!): For'use apagoge' (arrest). Apagoge is a type of action: Demosthenes in Against Konon. The word has derived from'carrying off' and'being carried off' as applied to wrong-doers. And they used to be carried off to the Eleven.

    § a169 Apagoreuein (to bid farewell to, give up doing): for'to be distressed' or'to be unable': Lysias in Erotikos.

  74. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a173

    § a173 Apatouria: Demosthenes in Against Boiotos. It is a festival among Athenians, which they celebrate in Pyanepsion over four days, as say those who have written on festivals. Many have told whence it got its name, including Ephoros in book two: namely on account of the treachery (apate) concerning the boundaries (horia), because when Athenians were waging war against Boiotians over the region called Melania, Melanthos, the king of the Athenians, slew Xanthos, the king of the Thebans, fighting in single combat, having deceived him.

  75. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a174

    § a182 Apobates and apobainein and apobatic wheels: Deinarchos, Against Phormisios and in the Defense against Antiphanes, Lykourgos in the Defence Against Demades. The apobates is an equestrian competition, and apobainein is to compete in the apobates, and apobatic wheels are from this competition. What happened in it is explained by Theophrastos in the 20th book of the Laws. The only Greeks who practised it, he says, were the Athenians and Boiotians.

  84. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a183

    § a183 Apographe (declaration): Whenever one says that someone has something that belongs to the city, the accuser makes a declaration, showing whence the person has the property and how much it is. Perhaps the apographe is also a type of action. For if one should deny that one has (the property), then a suit was brought for apographe on grounds that the apographe had not been done correctly. Demosthenes, Against Androtion. What the risk was for the one making the apographe, becomes clear in Demosthenes' Against Nikostratos on the slaves of Arethousios, if it is genuine.

  85. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a184

    § a184 Apodektai: the receivers are an office among Athenians, which the orators and the comic poets mention many times. Aristotle, in the Constitution of the Athenians, has shown that there were ten, and that having received the records (of debt), they erase money paid in the presence of the council in the bouleuterion and return the records back to the public secretary. And he clarifies simply what they do. That the receivers were appointed by Kleisthenes in place of the kolakretai Androtion book 2 (shows).

  86. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a185

    § a185 Apodidomenoi: Antiphon in On the Samothracians' Tribute for'returning' (active voice). And then he says “we give back” (middle voice) either for'we give away' or for'we sell.'.

  89. urn:cts:greekLit:tlg1389.tlg001:a188

    § a188 Apokeruttontes (selling by auction): for'selling:' Demosthenes, Against Aristokrates. Plato in Ambassadors: “having stolen implements, carrying them away, he auctioned them;” he sold.
