Headword: Ἔνδειξις
Adler number: epsilon,1169
Translated headword: exposure, information
Vetting Status: low
Translation:
A lawsuit[1] brought against those who were in debt and [sc. nevertheless] making public speeches. For someone in debt was not permitted to speak, or even to have complete citizen rights. Consequently, if a debtor held office too, he was exposed. Now[2] also the ἔνδειχις [procedure] applies to exiles returning where they shouldn't.
Greek Original:
Ἔνδειξις: δίκη κατὰ τῶν ὀφειλόντων καὶ δημηγορούντων. οὐ γὰρ ἐξῆν λέγειν, οὐδ' ὅλως ἐπίτιμον εἶναι ὀφείλοντα. ὥστε εἰ καὶ ἦρχέ τις ὀφείλων, ἐνεδείκνυτο. ἤδη δὲ καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν φυγάδων ὅπου μὴ ἔξεστι κατιόντων, ἡ ἔνδειξις.
Notes:
See also epsilon 1170, epsilon 1171.
[1] In classical Athens.
[2] The transmitted ἤδη (which is translated here) was corrected to ἦν by M.H.E.Meier. With Meier's emendation the translation would run, "the ἔνδειχις also applied to exiles returning where they shouldn't."
