And as kings, some of them chose Lycian descendants of Glaucus son of Hippolochus, and some Caucones of Pylus, descendants of Codrus son of Melanthus, and some both. Yet since they set more store by the name than the rest of the Ionians, let it be granted that those of pure birth are Ionians;

and all are Ionians who are of Athenian descent and keep the feast Apaturia.A festival celebrated at Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens and most Ionian cities by the members of each “phratria” or clan, lasting three days; on the last day grown-up youths were formally admitted as members of the phratria. The festival was held in the month Pyanepsion (late October and early November). All do keep it, except the men of Ephesus [27.316,37.916] (deserted settlement), Izmir Ili, Ege kiyilari, Turkey, Asia Ephesus and Colophon [27.1333,38.1167] (Perseus) Colophon; these are the only Ionians who do not keep it, and these because, they say, of a certain pretext of murder.
