The record

The entries filed under this era belong to Athens: three philosophers and one text. They run from the traditional birth date of Socrates, about 470 BC, to the death of Aristotle in 322 BC.

Greece in these centuries was a world of separate city-states, not a single state. The wars, the other cities and the politics of Athens itself are not covered here. This page only gathers what is linked to it.
