Notes:
This refers to Athenian constitutional history of the year 411 BCE, when five thousand (sic) Athenians were so registered; and the passage almost certainly derives from ancient comment on [
Lysias] 20.13 which refers to this and uses -- as
Thucydides 8.97-98 does not -- the noun
katalogeus.
There is a broadly similar entry in
Photius, but without the number.
