Other topics the relationship between population size and political strength in the Arkadian Poleis ; the reasons for the shifting location of the city of Miletos; whether Ancient Sparta was a Polis ; the political organisation of East Locris in the Classical period; the Chalcidic Peninsula and Thrace; the use of the word `Polis' in the works of Xenophon, historians, Attic orators, inscriptions and in other Archaic and Classical sources.
