Editing Deme (section)

==Representation in the Boule==

In the first three periods there it a more detailed system of fixed quotas which essentially remained unchanged. There is no evidence for a single general reapportionment of quotas within each of the first three periods, while there are evident small quota-variations between the first and the second periods.<ref name=T56>{{harvnb|Traill|1975|p=56}}</ref>

More precisely in:
:307/306 BC, 24 demes increased of 1 bouleutes, 13 of 2, 5 or 3, 6 of 4 and 1 (Lower Paiania) of 11 and there is not a single example of a decreased quota.<ref name=T59>{{harvnb|Traill|1975|p=59}}</ref>
:224/223 BC 4 demes increased of 1 bouletes

As regards the last two periods, the material illustrates the complete collapse of the quota-system from 201/200 BC.<ref name=T61>{{harvnb|Traill|1975|p=61}}</ref>
