It presents a quantitative analysis of a large sample of inscriptions from Asia Minor, to assess the frequency of references to family lines on the one hand, of multiple office-holding, iteration of office and lifelong offices on the other hand. The results lead to reconsider the idea that public life in Greek cities of the Imperial period was monopolised by a few dynasties of notables. They rather suggest that the majority of citizens involved in public activity did not come from very prestigious families and that in most cases, office-holding was a short-time commitment, still based on the principle of rotation.

Their politics directly involved citizens. This does not seem to be the case for contemporary cities, especially those in southern Italy. There many small and medium-sized towns are no longer attractive to young people, social life is inert, and cultural activities are almost entirely absent. The Ancient Cities project stems from reflections on the contrast between ancient and contemporary cities and aims to suggest new models for social, cultural, and civic development.
