Traditional attribution
Epinomis
Ἐπινομίς
'Appendix to the Laws': the same speakers ask what knowledge the Nocturnal Council must possess. The answer is astronomy understood as theology: the stars are visible, ensouled gods, and the study of number and of their motions leads to piety and wisdom.
No edition of this work is currently on sale in a store we have been able to verify.
Authorship note
Disputed, generally considered spurious: Diogenes Laertius (III 37) reports that some ascribed it to Philip of Opus, the secretary who copied out the Laws, and most modern scholarship follows that attribution.
