The Surplus of the Athenian Phoros	1985	22	.pdf	application/pdf	12263	429	62	More serious difficulty has been seen in the poor correlation be­ tween irregular tribute payments and the presence of large Athenian military forces in the vicinity.48 For example, during the years that saw large Athenian fleets besieging Samos and Byzantium (440/39?) and Potidaea (432-429), irregularities in tribute quota payments from neighboring cities {including partial payment and actual default} are no more severe than those for the same cities in more normal years. Only Diodorus dissents from' this harmony of sources, putting Athenian tribute revenue at 560T in 47817 and 460T in 431/0 (Diod. 11.47.1, 12.40.2); but these figures contradict simple logic and evidence that tribute actually increased during this period.	cache/grbs-5331.pdf	txt/grbs-5331.txt
