Drakonian
Language: English
Part of speech: adj
Forms: form: more Drakonian
form: most Drakonian
Etymology: From Drakon + -ian; or, with Drako, a Hellenized spelling of Draconian.
Senses: examples: text: Probably neither Drako, nor the Lokrian Zaleukus, who somewhat preceded him in date, were more rigorous than the sentiment of the age: indeed the few fragments of the Drakonian tables which have reached us, far from exhibiting indiscriminate cruelty, introduce, for the first time, into the Athenian law, mitigating distinctions in respect to homicide; founded on the variety of concomitant circumstances.
ref: 1847, George Grote, “Ionic Portion of Hellas.—Athens before Solon.”, in History of Greece, volume III (part II (Continuation of Historical Greece)), London: John Murray, […], →OCLC, page 100:
text: The text of the Drakonian homicide law adumbrates another kind of boundary beginning to form: a public distinction between Athenians and non-Athenians.
ref: 1990, Philip Brook Manville, “Laws, Boundaries, and Centralization”, in The Origins of Citizenship in Ancient Athens, Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, published 1992 (2nd printing), →ISBN, page 81:
text: Within a decade of the Kylon affair, the first Athenian lawcode was written down by Drako, no doubt largely in response to the growing political unrest. Little is known of these Drakonian laws apart from their alleged harshness (“written in blood,” tradition records), but codification did provide something of a check against the arbitrariness of themis-giving nobles.
ref: 1996, Joseph M[ichael] Bryant, “Toward Democracy in Athens”, in Moral Codes and Social Structure in Ancient Greece: A Sociology of Greek Ethics from Homer to the Epicureans and Stoics, Albany, N.Y.: State University of New York Press, →ISBN, section 3 (Archaic Greece), subsection I (Social Structure: The Emergence of Polis Society), page 68:
text: It remains unclear what (if any) other matters were addressed in the laws of Drakon, although in later Athenian legend, he was believed to have prescribed death for a wide range of offenses. Whatever their scope and intent, the Drakonian laws did not lead to a stable social order.

Senses: examples: text: We may however follow the course of ideas under which Solon was induced to write this sentence on his tables, and we may trace the influence of similar ideas in later Attic institutions. It is obvious that his denunciation is confined to that special case in which a sedition has already broken out: we must suppose that Kylon has seized the Acropolis, or that Peisistratus, Megaklês, and Lycurgus, are in arms at the head of their partisans.
ref: 1847, George Grote, “Solonian Laws and Constitution”, in History of Greece, volume III (part II (Continuation of Historical Greece)), London: John Murray, […], →OCLC, page 190:
text: Initial indications appear in the story surrounding “the first certain event of Athenian history”—the attempted coup d’état of the nobleman Kylon. In about 630 Kylon, a recent Olympic victor and powerful aristocrat, stormed the Athenian Akropolis with the aim of making himself tyrant.

Kylonian
Language: English
Part of speech: adj
Etymology: From Kylon + -ian.
Senses: examples: text: Of his [Solon’s] early poems hardly anything is preserved; the few lines which remain seem to manifest a jovial temperament which we may well conceive to have been overlaid by the political difficulties against which he had to contend—difficulties arising successively out of the Megarian war, the Kylonian sacrilege, the public despondency healed by Epimenidês, and the task of arbiter between a rapacious oligarchy and a suffering people.
ref: 1847, George Grote, “Solonian Laws and Constitution”, in History of Greece, volume III (part II (Continuation of Historical Greece)), London: John Murray, […], →OCLC, pages 209–210:

ref: 1847, George Grote, “Ionic Portion of Hellas.—Athens before Solon.”, in History of Greece, volume III (part II (Continuation of Historical Greece)), London: John Murray, […], →OCLC, page 110:
text: The same process of evolution perhaps is discernible in two other signs of territorial awareness in this general period: the boundaries of Attika sworn to be guarded by the ephēboi and the decision of the Athenians to cast the bodies of deceased Alkmeonids, the family polluted by their role in the murder of the Kylonians, “beyond the borders” of Attika (hyper tous horous: Plut. Sol. 12.3, cf. Ath. Pol. 1).
ref: 1990, Philip Brook Manville, “Laws, Boundaries, and Centralization”, in The Origins of Citizenship in Ancient Athens, Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, published 1992 (2nd printing), →ISBN, page 81:
text: According to Plutarch, after the killing (and until, it seems, the exile of the Alkmaionids and the religious reforms of Epimenides) there occurred a prolonged civil and religious crisis: the Kylonian pollution agitated the city-state for a long time, the constant conflict between the surviving Kylonians and the Alkmaionids divided the people (demos), and the city-state was visited with superstitious fears, strange appearances, and pollutions.
