The main Athenian resource in 500 to 480 B.C were the Lavrion silver mines.
And it was the most impotrant resource.
Also by the time of Delion the Loimos (Plague) had causes among others the reduction of army service eligibles.
It mast have been serious for the obnoxious Athenians to get assistance from metoikoi -possibly promishing citizenship.
Kind regards
