Description
  • English: These ostraka from 482 BC were recovered from a well near the Acropolis. The Athenians had a particular voting technique to remove a citizen from the community. If ostracized, the person was exiled for ten years, and after that time could return and have their property restored. Themistokles was a great Athenian general, but the Spartans worked to have him exiled. After his ostracism, he moved to Persia, Athen's enemy, where King Artaxerxes I made him governor of Magnesia. Ancient Agora Museum in Athens.
  • Italiano: Ostraka (cocci con scritto il nome del candidato all'esilio) del 482 a.C., risalenti alla votazione che sancì l'ostracismo del generale Temistocle. Esposti nel Museo dell'antica agorà ad Atene.
