Summary
The battered stone which bears the bouleutic oath and a decree of the demos about the boule has the same width as and is universally agreed to be a companion piece to IGi2 115 = i3 114. That text begins with a decree of 409/8 ordering the anagrapheis to obtain Draco's law on homicide (from the basileus, as R. S. Stroud will show) and write it on the stone. On the face of it, they are merely to make a copy, and, though the stray voice has been raised to suggest that they altered the text, most discussion has been about the age of the text before them and the changes that it might have undergone before 409.
The bouleutic stone is unprotected by a decree, as it stands, and encouragement for those who might wish to suppose that it represents a revised text comes from Philochorus, 328F140, which suggests a change in legislation about the boule in 410/09. There has not, to my knowledge, been any very great enthusiasm for massive revision or new formulation. To put it at a minimum, Τάδɛ Eδoχσɛν Eλ Λ∪k[ɛ]io[ι] (line 34) and μE Eναι θóαν EπιβαλEν (line 41) do not sound like constitutional procedure or even formal language of 410, and there has been at least one attempt to carry the whole document back beyond the Persian War.
