Aristotle described Athens’ form of government: “And they divided themselves into four tribes as in the seasons of the year, and each tribe was subdivided into three parts so that altogether the parts numbered 12 as in the months of the year; each house was divided into three parts to yield the number of a circle 36(0).”
