Description |
English: This ostrakon from 482 BC was recovered from a well near the Acropolis. It reads "Themistocles, son of Neocles". The Athenians had a particular voting technique to remove a citizen from the community:
Every voting citizen would scratch the name of the person to be exiled into a piece of pottery and hand it in to be counted. For some votes thousands of named pottery pieces have been found.
If ostracized, the person was exiled for ten years, and after that time could return and have their property restored. After his ostracism, Themistocles defected to Persia and was made governor of Magnesia. Español: Ostracon que contiene el nombre de Thémistocle, hacia 490-480. Museo del Ágora antigua de Atenas
