# Modern archaic-Greece handbooks print South Italian cities as slaveholding, the school’s economic air

Date: 1999

## The fact

Cambridge archaic-Greece pages and museum South-Italian collections print unfree labour as the rural and urban machine of Croton’s world. The dated carrier is that modern handbook. The school as later told sits in that air. Medium/low confidence on unique Pythagorean slave rules.

## Context

Not a Pythagorean slave code autograph. A context Fact as later economic history.

[Pythagoras](/people/pythagoras) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.

## Evidence and sources

Official encyclopedia, Loeb, or heritage pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument.

## Significance

Printed slaveholding Croton is not a 6th-century payroll of the school.

Printed slaveholding Croton is not a 6th-century payroll of the school.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a dated public record of this instrument.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.
