theuse of the trittyes as nodes of communication within the broader frameworkof Athenian society and democratic organization.The author argues that themultifunctional nature of the theaters is integrally linked to their relation-ship with the trittyes,and posits that the theatral areas facilitated both demeand trittyes gatherings.The precise role of the trittyes in organizational andadministrative functions is further considered.  \n## INTRODUCTION\n\nDeme theaters,or theatral areas,dot both the countryside of Attica andour epigraphical sources.In this article,I examine the evidence for 19deme theaters in Attica during the 5th and 4th centuries B.C.,combiningdisparate sources in order to consider theaters attested in literature andinscriptions as well as those found in archaeological contexts(Fig.1).Thephysical remains of known deme theaters are discussed in detail to establishpatterns of construction and form.The overarching goal of the first part ofthe investigation is to identify the distribution,shape,and functions of thedeme theatral areas,noting the hybridity of their form and the implicationsof the spatial dynamics of the areas.In the second part,this emphasis onform and function is developed with respect to the administrative and orga-nizational makeup of Athenian society and the democracy,with particular  \n1.An abbreviated version of
