This article examines the early Hellenistic honorific decree for the Athenian general Aristeides of Lamptrai (I.Rhamnous 404). After discussing the decree’s date and the external evidence about the honorand, the article provides a detailed analysis of Aristeides’ meritorious deeds in the order in which they are recounted in the motivation clause of the decree. In particular, the article considers the ways in which this decree advances our understanding of the Athenian revolt against Demetrios Poliorketes in 287, of Athenian relations with the Antigonids in the late 280s and early 270s, and of the early phases of the Chremonidean War
