Translation: There are two demes in Attica [sc. with this name], said in the neuter.[1] They say that they are so called because the place[s] never had habitation, but were isolated; for the ancients used to call isolation "oion".[2] There is Oion Kerameikon of the tribe Leontis, [3] and Oion Dekeleikon of Hippothontis.[4] The demesman from either used to be called "from-Oion". But others were the so-called "from-Oe", as stated before.[5]
