Hellenotamiai (Attic Greek: ἑλληνοταμίαι) was an ancient Greek term indicating a group of public treasurers. The Hellenotamiae were ten magistrates appointed by the Athenians (one from each tribe, possibly by election) to receive the contributions of the allied states, and were the chief financial officers of the Delian League. | |wketx=Hellenotamiai (Attic Greek: ἑλληνοταμίαι) was an ancient Greek term indicating a group of public treasurers.

They were first appointed in 477 BC, when Athens, in consequence of the conduct of the Spartan general Pausanias, had obtained the command of the allied states. The money paid by the different states, which was originally fixed at 460 talents, was deposited in Delos, which was the place of meeting for the discussion of all common interests; and there can be no doubt that the Hellenotamiai not only received, but were also the guardians of these monies, which were called by Xenophon Hellenotamia (Ἑλληνοταμία). | They were first appointed in 477 BC, when Athens, in consequence of the conduct of the Spartan general Pausanias, had obtained the command of the allied states.

The office was abolished on the conquest of Athens by the Peloponnesians in 404 BC. The Hellenotamiae were not reappointed after the restoration of the democracy; for which reason the grammarians give us little information regarding their responsibilities and duties. The German classical scholar Philipp August Boeckh, however, concluded from inscriptions that they were probably ten in number, chosen by lot (like the treasurers of the gods) out of the Pentacosiomedimni, and that they did not enter upon their office at the beginning of the year, but after the Panathenaea and the first Prytaneia. With regard to their duties, Böckh supposes that they remained treasurers of the monies collected from the allies, and that payments for certain objects were assigned to them. In the first place they would of course pay the expenses of wars in the common cause, as the contributions were originally designed for that purpose; but as the Athenians in course of time considered the money as their own property, the Hellenotamiai had to pay the Theorica and military expenses not connected with wars on behalf of the common cause. | The office was abolished on the conquest of Athens by the Peloponnesians in 404 BC.

Die Hellenotamiai (griechischer Plural Ἑλληνοταμίαι = Hellēnota'míai, zusammengesetzt aus Ἕλληνο von Ἕλλην = Hellene, Grieche; ταμίαι Plural zu ταμίας = Verwalter, Zahlmeister) bildeten in der Antike ein Kollegium athenischer Beamter, das für die Verwaltung der Gelder des 478 v. Chr. gegründeten Ersten Attischen Seebundes zuständig war. Zunächst gehörten zehn, ab 411 v. Chr. zwanzig Mitglieder dem Kollegium an. Mit Ende des Peloponnesischen Krieges 404 v. Chr. wurde die Behörde aufgelöst. | Die Hellenotamiai (griechischer Plural Ἑλληνοταμίαι = Hellēnota'míai, zusammengesetzt aus Ἕλληνο von Ἕλλην = Hellene, Grieche; ταμίαι Plural zu ταμίας = Verwalter, Zahlmeister) bildeten in der Antike ein Kollegium athenischer Beamter, das für die Verwaltung der Gelder des 478 v.
