Archons of Athens - and were in charge of the Boule and Ekklesia. There were two other archons each year, the Polemarch (until 501 BC when this position was replaced with 10 strategoi), and the Basileus, the ceremonial remnant of the Athenian monarchy.

There are various conflicting reconstructions of lists; sources for this list are given at the end. Note that the term of an archon covered two of our years, beginning in the spring or summer and continuing.
