Abstract

The dekaprotoi and the eikosaprotoi, who were responsible for collecting imperial taxes, appeared in the Greek cities at the end of the Ist century. This article primarily examines the establishment of these officials and their dispersion, which probably occurred at the suggestion of the Roman administration. The dekaprotia is unequally well-attested in the different cities and provinces of the Empire. Its organization seemed to have followed the local and regional characteristics. In Asia Minor, Lycia received the office early, possibly simultaneously with the creation of the province, while the dekaprotia was perhaps established later in the other regions, and did not have the same significance everywhere.
