520 1 $a"Although the polis, or city-state, defined the essence of classical Greek civilization, evidence of its most basic characteristics is woefully inadequate. Now a leading scholar in the evaluation of data from the ancient world sheds new light on how those units were constituted." "In his research, Mogens Herman Hansen develops a novel method for estimating the overall size and local distribution of the Greek population throughout the ancient world - in both the Greek homeland and its colonies - and explains his reconstruction step by step. Reflecting the work of the Copenhagen Polis Centre in its 2004 inventory of archaic and classical Greek city-states, Hansen's book makes it possible for the first time to assess the total population of the ancient Greek world."--BOOK JACKET.
