editCould the Eponymous archon be named as the target in an Ostracism in ancient Athens?
The Ostracism article states that "any citizen could be expelled", so seems like the answer is "Yes".
But I'm not super familiar with the definition of a "citizen" in ancient Athens, so I'm not 100% sure whether the eponymous archon is off limits or not. OptoFidelty (talk) 05:05, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
- There is a (german) large enzyclodedia "Der Große Pauly" which might be able to answer this question.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 13:53, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
What role have anti-Assad factional Baathists played in the Syrian civil war?
editFor example, the Michel Aflaq faction and the Salah Jadid faction. DJCPRN (talk) 12:57, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what "Michel Aflaq faction" would mean; many Ba`th groups claim his legacy, though he was kind of an Iraq regime figurehead during the last two decades of his life. The Democratic Socialist Arab Ba'ath Party apparently continues the Salah Jadid legacy... AnonMoos (talk) 04:07, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
- The Michel Aflaq faction would be the Iraqi-dominated Baath Party. I have no refs or sources, but I strongly doubt the Syrian wing of the Saddam-led Baath Party had any role in the war as such. --Soman (talk) 13:15, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
