Prytaneis were the executive officers in charge of the Athenian council (or boule) after its reorganization by Cleisthenes in the 6th century B.C. This study presents all documents recovered from the Athenian Agora relating to the prytaneis, beginning in 327/6 B.C. and ending in the reign of Augustus. 121 of the inscriptions are previously unpublished. Each inscription is presented with detailed epigraphic apparatus, and most are illustrated.
