Pol. 8) states that Solon enacted that the election to the offices should be by lot from candidates selected by each of the tribes. For example, each tribe selected then candidates for the nine archonships, and among these the lot was cast. Cf. Isoc. 7.22. and townships,The numerous “demes” into which Attica was divided. having made of the offices, not prizes to fight for or to tempt ambition,See Isoc. 7.24-25 and notes. but responsibilities much more comparable to the liturgies,See Introduction to the Antidosis. which are burdensome to those to whom they are assigned, although conferring upon them a kind of distinction. For the men who had been elected to office were required to neglect their own possessions and at the same time to abstain no less from the gratuities which are wont to be given to the offices than from the treasures of the gods. (Who under the present dispensation would submit to such restrictions?)
