[1] In the classical democracy the Assembly occasionally passed decrees honouring native born Athenians who were major military and political figures, typically awarding a statue and other high honours, but no inscribed example survives (the earliest is IG II² 457, honouring Lykourgos in 307/6, q.v.). Decrees were also passed making lesser awards (typically a crown, sometimes with money for a sacrifice and dedication) to officials of the democracy, but they only began to be regularly inscribed in the 340s. This is the earliest dated example in the series. For the earliest inscribed dedication by an official stating that it commemorates a crown awarded by the People see IG II³ 4, 57.
