Summary

This short article goes back to the problem of the authenticity of the document found at Dem. 24.20–23, with wide implications for the reconstruction of Athenian nomothesia. Without providing a comprehensive response to M. H. Hansen’s recent KLIO article on the topic (M. H. Hansen, The Inserted Document at Dem. 24.20–23. Response to Mirko Canevaro, KLIO 101, 2019, 452–472; itself a response to a previous KLIO article by M. Canevaro), it clarifies some key issues and clears up some important misunderstandings, also providing new evidence against the authenticity of the document.


Anmerkung der Redaktion

Die Zeitschrift KLIO bietet gerne Raum für Forschungskontroversen, die allerdings auch einen Schlusspunkt finden sollen. Die Herausgeber betrachten deshalb diese Debatte als abgeschlossen.
