Abstract

The use of the Title τῶν Ἑλλήνων ὄνομα as shown by coins and inscriptions was not a culturally-based definition of Hellenic identity but a political/civic identity. A Ἑλληνάρχης for example was the representative of the Hellenes, precisely the inhabitants of the polis, in the koina but the title Hellenes does not have any ethno-cultural affiliation.
