"as it is proved by the use of the month Apellaios"[edit]

What does that mean? Doesn't make any sense to me. Fresheneesz (talk) 22:38, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contradictory information?[edit]

"There is a single reference to a "small assembly" at Sparta, but nothing is known as to its nature or competence. The term apella does not occur in extant Spartan inscriptions, though two decrees of Gythium belonging to the Roman period refer to the μεγάλαι ἀπέλλαι"

What is this talking about? It seems very out of place. Is this suggesting that the Sparta might not actually have had the Apella? Fresheneesz (talk) 22:42, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, they never used the word. I corrected the article. T8612 (talk) 12:41, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The word usually appears in plural.There was a festival named "apellai". Jestmoon(talk) 12:50, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Map from German Wiki might be useful?[edit]

Showing the locations of the Skias and the Agora might help people to picture it.
