INSCRIPTIONS Ixiii than the Parthenon.' (Of temples on the Acropolis besides those of Athena, Thucydides speaks in ii, 15, TO, yap lepa iv avTrj rrj aKpoiroXcL /cat uXXwy ^ewj' IcttL) But the treasures of the other deities were certainly at a later date, and perhaps at the beginning of the war {C. I. A. 32), kept on the AcropoHs and in the Parthenon. I. iv. We will now pass to the inscriptions relating to the payment of debts to the temples and the expenditure of pubhc mone}'. Among them one of the most important is C. I. A 32 and Suppl. ii, a decree of the senate and people which, after mentioning the repayment of 3,000 talents to the Goddess, provides for a further repayment to ' the other deities ' out of certain funds which had been already set apart for this purpose b}' a vote of the assembly. Part of these were in the hands of the Hellenotamiae, another part was to be obtained from a tithe of the produce of land, tolls, or spoils (? when let out or sold(?), rd eV- t^s ScKaTT^s eVeiSai/ TrpaOrj. The thirty XoyicTTai, ov accountants, now in office are to calculate exactly the amount of the debt to the deities : these officers are to be called together at the discretion of the senate. (The rpiaKovra mentioned in the heading of the first and third quota lists are prob- ably identical with the XoyicrraL, see Kohler, p. 106.) The nione}^ is to be paid back by the Trpvravets in the presence of the Senate, and all records of the debt are to be searched for and cancelled. The sum thus repaid is to be adminis- tered by Tafjiiai. These are to be elected at the same time as the other magistrates, and in the same manner as the Ta/xt'ai of the treasures of Athene. They are to receive the money of the other deities from other ra/xtat, e-io-rarai, and UpoiroiOL of different temples who administer it at present and to deposit it in the Opisthodomus of the Par- thenon. They are to register the amount belonging to each deity and to all collectively, and to keep an annual 1 I. e. after the upvTavm have first paid it back to its various ad- ministrators (?).
