    Ancient Greece - Crime and Punishment

    The Ancient Greeks took crime seriously, and citizens were expected to know the laws of the city. The worst crimes were punished with banishment or death. Any citizen could accuse another of a crime and take him or her to court. Investigate the actions and punishments of Greek thieves, murders, vagrants, and other criminals in ancient times.
