Foreigners in ancient Greece. Singular: metoikos. The word means "migrant" or "one who lives with the citizens." The status of foreigners existed in many poleis in the classical Greek world, but the situation is best understood in Athens. The oldest known example is the word "metaoikos" on a tomb inscription excavated at Kerameikos in the late 6th century BCE. Foreigners in Athens were different from ordinary foreigners (xenoi), and their lives and property were protected by national law, but they remained outside the framework of the citizens and were under their control.

古代ギリシアの在留外人。単数形メトイコスmetoikos。語義は〈移住者〉もしくは〈(市民団と)ともに住む者〉。古典期ギリシア世界の多くのポリスに在留外人身分は存在したが,最もよく事情の判明するのはアテナイである。前6世紀末のケラメイコス出土の一墓碑銘に〈メタオイコスmetaoikos〉という語形で現れるのが現在まで知られる最古の事例である。アテナイの在留外人は一般の外人(クセノイ)とは異なり,国法によって生命財産を守られたが,あくまで市民団の枠外にとどまり,その支配下に置かれていた。
