Overview

During the period of Delian Independence, the hieropes - Delian magistrates in charge of the management of sacred goods - were responsible for drawing a yearly inventory of the offerings dedicated to Apollo and other deities. Those inventories, carved on stelae, were excavated many centuries later by the archaeologists of the French School at Athens. Their texts, published by Felix Durrbach, provide a wealth of data on diverse topics. In the Ph D dissertation he defended in 1959, Jacques Treheux delt with all the material relevant to the vase collections, in the process conducting a critical manner the inscriptions published in IG XI 2 and then in the ID series. His study dealt primarily with the inventories of the Hieropoion and of the Chalcotheke. J. Treheux wished to extend his study to all the inventories; but his work remained unfinished. Still, the seven chapters assembled here have a lot to teach about the management of offerings, the editing of the first inventories and the meaning of a number of terms used by the hieropes, many of which he was able to clarify. To Pierre Charneux we owe the addenda and corrigenda, while his detailed indices make this work easier to consult.
