Kleros (Greek: klēros)

Japanese: クレーロス - くれーろす(英語表記)klēros ギリシア語
Kleros (Greek: klēros)
From the meaning of "lot," this word came to mean "land divided by drawing lots." In Doric dialect, it was klaros. In Greek cities, the general rule was that members of the citizen body or civic community were owners of klaros, which was a privately owned hereditary farmland that each citizen cultivated with the labor of his or her family to support economic independence. Hesiod mentions the buying and selling of klaros, but in order to maintain the community, the movement of klaros was undesirable, so various community regulations were often imposed and buying and selling was sometimes prohibited.

Japanese:
〈くじ〉の意味から〈くじ引きで分配された分割地〉という意味になった語。ドリス方言ではクラーロスklaros。ギリシア諸市では一般に市民団ないし市民共同体の成員は,クレーロス所有者であることを原則としており,それは各市民が自己の家族の労働で耕し,経済的自立を支える一応の私有の世襲農地であった。ヘシオドスはクレーロスの売買について述べているが,共同体の維持の目的から,クレーロスの移動は好ましくないため,いろいろな共同体規制が加えられることが多く,売買が禁止されることもあった。
