An Attic Inscription of the Archidamian War
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 23 December 2013
Extract
These three numbers in the Corpus are parts of one inscription, which evidently contains the expenditure of Athena's Treasurers for some portion of the years 432/1–427/6. 294 is in two pieces, of which fragment a had not apparently been seen since Lolling's time, and I.G. I2. gives it from Lolling's not quite correct copy: Bannier had observed with great acuteness from the published copies that fragments a and b of 294 join.

2 I joined 294b and 308 in the autumn of
1927, guided by the similarity of the writing. About a month later, I came by accident on 294a, which provided actual contacts with the other two. Very soon after I had to leave Athens, having noted three or four further fragments which seemed similar, though I could not fix their places: they included 299, and also I.G. I2. 634 
though I have made nothing further of this, nor exactly checked the size of the writing: perhaps it comes from a document of the Logistai of 426. Since then, I have had much correspondence with Mr. B. D. Meritt, to whose suggestions most of what is of value in the following paper is due.
I must further thank Dr. Leonardos for the most indulgent hospitality I enjoyed in his Museum; and Stavros, the Phylax, who helped me bed my fragments in plaster.

The same in lines 9 and 15.

The date by month is, however, unexpected. (This equation is right, I believe, for the year 431–0).

16 Lines 114–120 (Num. Chron., 1930, p. 38): ‘from the year's revenues collected by ourselves, lumps of Skapte Hyle gold of a total weight of 3 minas: their silver value is 30 minas, computed at the rate of 10–1.’ See Num. Chron., 1930, p. 24 (cf. also pp. 30, 33).
