Vetting Status: high
Translation: [
isoteles] and
isoteleia. [sc.
isoteleia was] a particular honour frequently given to those metics who seemed worthy, which brought them exemption from the metic-tax.
Theophrastus[1] says that
isoteleis also used to have exemption from the other things the metics did. And [the] Athenians used to vote tax-exemption to whole cities, such as
Olynthus and
Thebes. The
isoteleis paid a prescribed tax of some kind.
