We study translation surfaces with rich groups of affine diffeomorphisms. We introduce the notion of “prelattice” translation surfaces. They include the lattice translation surfaces studied by W. Veech. Our results characterize arithmetic surfaces among prelattice translation surfaces by the infinity of the set of periodic points under the action of this group. We show that there are prelattice but nonlattice translation surfaces, negatively answering a question of Veech. We study periodic points of hyperelliptic translation surfaces. In particular, we give explicit examples of translation surfaces whose sets of periodic points and Weierstrass points coincide.
