¹ The suggestion is that of Holleaux, *op. cit.* p. 31 (on *SEG* VII, 62). But he is not responsible for my suggested reason which follows in the text. It has recently been maintained (G. Daux, *Delphes* 1936 pp. 219 *sq.*) that part of the business of the Aetolian governor (*epimeletes*) in Delphi, during the period when Aetolia controlled that cosmopolitan city, was to act as arbiter between Delphians and non-Delphians and preserve social peace, which if correct would be a valuable parallel to my view. Cf. the decree for an Attalid governor in Aegina, *OGIS* 329.
