slaved non-Spartan local population). Spartiates underwent the rigorous agoge training and education regimen,
and Spartan phalanges were widely considered to be
among the best in battle. Spartan women enjoyed considerably more rights and equality to men than elsewhere
in the classical world.
Sparta was the subject of fascination in its own day,
as well as in the West following the revival of classical
learning.[n 1] This love or admiration of Sparta is known
as Laconism or Laconophilia. At its peak around 500
BC the size of the city would have been some 20,000
35,000 free residents, plus numerous helots and perioikoi
(dwellers around). At 40,000 50,000 it was one of the
largest Greek cities;[4][5] however, according to ThucyHollow Lacedaemon. Site of the Menelaion, the ancient shrine dides, the population of Athens in 431 BC was 360,000

1 Names
2
The ancient Greeks used one of three words to refer to the
home location of the Spartans. The rst refers primarily to the main cluster of settlements in the valley of the
Eurotas River: Sparta.[14] The second word was Lacedaemon ();[15] this was also used sometimes
as an adjective and is the name commonly used in the
works of Homer and the Athenian historians Herodotus
and Thucydides. Herodotus seems to denote by it the
Mycenaean Greek citadel at Therapne, in contrast to the
lower town of Sparta. It could be used synonymously
with Sparta, but typically it was not. It denoted the terrain on which Sparta was situated.[16] In Homer it is typically combined with epithets of the countryside: wide,
lovely, shining and most often hollow and broken (full
of ravines).[17] The hollow suggests the Eurotas Valley.
Sparta on the other hand is the country of lovely women,
a people epithet.
The name of the population was often used for the state
of Lacedaemon: the Lacedaemonians. This epithet utilized the plural of the adjective Lacedaemonius (Greek:
; Latin: Lacedaemonii, but also Lacedaemones). If the ancients wished to refer to the country
more directly, instead of Lacedaemon, they could use
a back-formation from the adjective: Lacedaemonian
country. As most words for country were feminine, the
adjective was in the feminine: Lacedaemonia (, Lakedaimonia). Eventually, the adjective came to
be used alone.
Lacedaemonia was not in general use during the classical period and before. It does occur in Greek as an
equivalent of Laconia and Messenia during the Roman
and early Byzantine periods, mostly in ethnographers and
lexica glossing place names. For example, Hesychius of
Alexandria's Lexicon (5th century AD) denes Agiadae
as a place in Lacedaemonia named after Agis.[18] The
actual transition may be captured by Isidore of Seville's
Etymologiae (7th century AD), an etymological dictionary. He relied heavily on Orosius' Historiarum Adversum Paganos (5th century AD) and Eusebius of Caesarea's Chronicon (early 5th century AD) as did Orosius.
The latter denes Sparta to be Lacedaemonia Civitas but
Isidore denes Lacedaemonia as founded by Lacedaemon, son of Semele, relying on Eusebius.[19] There is
a rare use, perhaps the earliest of Lacedaemonia, in
Diodorus Siculus,[20] but probably with (country) suppressed.
2 Geography
Sparta is located in the region of Laconia, in the southeastern Peloponnese. Ancient Sparta was built on the
banks of the Evrotas River, the main river of Laconia,
which provided it with a source of fresh water. The valley of the Evrotas is a natural fortress, bounded to the
west by Mt. Taygetus (2407 m) and to the east by Mt.
Parnon (1935 m). To the north, Laconia is separated
from Arcadia by hilly uplands reaching 1000 m in altitude. These natural defenses worked to Spartas advantage and contributed to Sparta never having been sacked.
Though landlocked, Sparta had a harbor, Gytheio, on the
Laconian Gulf.
3 Mythology
Lacedaemon (Greek: ) was a mythical king
of Laconia.[22] The son of Zeus by the nymph Taygete, he
married Sparta, the daughter of Eurotas, by whom he became the father of Amyclas, Eurydice, and Asine. He
named the country after himself and the city after his
wife.[22] He was believed to have built the sanctuary of
the Charites, which stood between Sparta and Amyclae,
and to have given to those divinities the names of Cleta
and Phaenna. A shrine was erected to him in the neighborhood of Therapne.
Suppose the city of Sparta to be deserted, and nothing left but the temples and the
ground-plan, distant ages would be very unwilling to believe that the power of the Lacedaemonians was at all equal to their fame. Their

altar and in front of the temple of Artemis Orthia. Here
musical and gymnastic contests took place as well as
the famous ogging ordeal (diamastigosis). The temple,
which can be dated to the 2nd century BC, rests on the
foundation of an older temple of the 6th century, and
close beside it were found the remains of a yet earlier temple, dating from the 9th or even the 10th century. The
votive oerings in clay, amber, bronze, ivory and lead
found in great profusion within the precinct range, dating
from the 9th to the 4th centuries BC, supply invaluable
evidence for early Spartan art.
4.1 Menelaion
The Menelaion is a shrine associated with Menelaus, located east of Sparta, by the river Eurotas, on the hill
Protis Ilias (Coordinates: 370357N 222713E /
37.065853N 22.453629E). Built early 8th century BC
it was believed by Spartans to be the home of Menelaus.
In 1970 the British School in Athens started excavations in an attempt to locate Mycenaean remains in the
area around Menelaion. Among other ndings, they uncovered the remains of two Mycenaean mansions and
found the rst oerings dedicated to Helen and Menelaus.
These mansions were destroyed, by an earthquake and by
re, and archaeologists consider as the possible palace
of Menelaus himself.[24] Excavations made from the
early 1990s to the present suggest that the area around
Menelaion in the southern part of the Eurotas valley
seems to have been the center of Mycenaean Laconia.
[25]
The Mycenaean settlement was roughly triangular in
shape, with its apex pointed towards the north. Its area
was approximately equal to that of the newer Sparta,
but denudation has wreaked havoc with its buildings and
nothing is left save ruined foundations and broken potsherds.

period
The prehistory of Sparta is dicult to reconstruct because the literary evidence is far removed in time from
the events it describes and is also distorted by oral
tradition.[26] However, the earliest certain evidence of
human settlement in the region of Sparta consists of
pottery dating from the Middle Neolithic period, found
in the vicinity of Kouphovouno some two kilometres (1.2
miles) south-southwest of Sparta.[27] These are the earliest traces of the original Mycenaean Spartan civilisation,
as represented in Homers Iliad.
Between the 8th and 7th centuries BC the Spartans experienced a period of lawlessness and civil strife, later attested by both Herodotus and Thucydides.[29] As a result,
they carried out a series of political and social reforms of
their own society which they later attributed to a semimythical lawgiver, Lycurgus.[30] These reforms mark the

Thermopylae against the massive Persian army, inicting
very high casualties on the Persian forces before nally
being encircled.[32] The superior weaponry, strategy, and
bronze armour of the Greek hoplites and their phalanx
again proved their worth one year later when Sparta assembled at full strength and led a Greek alliance against
the Persians at the battle of Plataea.
The decisive Greek victory at Plataea put an end to
the Greco-Persian War along with Persian ambition of
expanding into Europe. Even though this war was
won by a pan-Greek army, credit was given to Sparta,
who besides being the protagonist at Thermopylae and
Plataea, had been the de facto leader of the entire Greek
expedition.[33]

The origins of the powers exercised by the assembly of

known as the gerousia. The gerousia consisted of 28 elders over the age of 60, elected for life and usually part
of the royal households, and the two kings.[50] High state
policy decisions were discussed by this council who could
then propose action alternatives to the damos, the collective body of Spartan citizenry, who would select one of
the alternatives by voting.[51][52]

dances, and sing ridiculous songs..." during syssitia (obligatory banquets).[67]
Each year when the Ephors took oce they ritually declared war on the helots, thereby allowing Spartans to kill
them without the risk of ritual pollution.[68] This seems
to have been done by kryptes (sing. ), graduates
of the Agoge who took part in the mysterious institution
known as the Krypteia.[69] Thucydides states:
The helots were invited by a proclamation to pick out those of their number who
claimed to have most distinguished themselves
against the enemy, in order that they might receive their freedom; the object being to test
them, as it was thought that the rst to claim
their freedom would be the most high spirited and the most apt to rebel. As many as
two thousand were selected accordingly, who
crowned themselves and went round the temples, rejoicing in their new freedom. The Spartans, however, soon afterwards did away with
them, and no one ever knew how each of them
perished.[70][71]

7.2 Education
Main article: Agoge
When male Spartans began military training at age seven,
they would enter the Agoge system. The Agoge was designed to encourage discipline and physical toughness and
to emphasise the importance of the Spartan state. Boys
lived in communal messes and, according to Xenophon,
whose sons attended the agoge, the boys were fed just the
right amount for them never to become sluggish through
being too full, while also giving them a taste of what it
is not to have enough.[88] Besides physical and weapons
training, boys studied reading, writing, music and dancing. Special punishments were imposed if boys failed to
answer questions suciently 'laconically' (i.e. briey and
wittily).[89]
There is some evidence that in late-Classical and Hellenistic Sparta boys were expected to take an older male
mentor, usually an unmarried young man. However,
7.3
Military life
there is no evidence of this in archaic Sparta. According to some sources, the older man was expected to function as a kind of substitute father and role model to his
junior partner; however, others believe it was reasonably
certain that they had sexual relations (the exact nature of
Spartan pederasty is not entirely clear).[90] It is notable,
however, that the only contemporary source with direct
experience of the agoge, Xenophon, explicitly denies the
sexual nature of the relationship.[88]
Sparta is thought to be the rst city to practice athletic nudity, and some scholars claim that it was also the rst to
formalize pederasty.[94] According to these sources, the
Spartans believed that the love of an older, accomplished
aristocrat for an adolescent was essential to his formation as a free citizen. The agoge, the education of the

buried their battle dead on or near the battle eld; corpses
were not brought back on their hoplons.[101] Nevertheless,
it is fair to say that it was less of a disgrace for a soldier to lose his helmet, breastplate or greaves than his hoplon, since the former were designed to protect one man,
whereas the hoplon also protected the man on his left.

been a strong child bearer.[112] For this reason many considered Spartan women polygamous or polyandrous.[113]
This practice was encouraged in order that women bear
as many strong-bodied children as they could. The Spartan population was hard to maintain due to the constant
absence and loss of the men in battle and the intense physical inspection of newborns.[114]
Spartan women were also literate and numerate, a rarity
in the ancient world. Furthermore, as a result of their
education and the fact that they moved freely in society
engaging with their fellow (male) citizens, they were notorious for speaking their minds even in public.[115]
Most importantly, Spartan women had economic power
because they controlled their own properties, and those
of their husbands. It is estimated that in later Classical
Sparta, when the male population was in serious decline,
women were the sole owners of at least 35% of all land
and property in Sparta.[116] The laws regarding a divorce
were the same for both men and women. Unlike women
in Athens, if a Spartan woman became the heiress of
her father because she had no living brothers to inherit
(an epikleros), the woman was not required to divorce
her current spouse in order to marry her nearest paternal
relative.[117]
8.2
Historic women
With the revival of classical learning in Renaissance Europe, Laconophilia re-appears, for examples in the writings of Machiavelli. The Elizabethan English constitutionalist John Aylmer compared the mixed government
of Tudor England to the Spartan republic, stating that
Lacedemonia [meaning Sparta], [was] the noblest and
best city governed that ever was. He commended it
as a model for England. The Swiss-French philosopher
Jean-Jacques Rousseau contrasted Sparta favourably with
Athens in his Discourse on the Arts and Sciences, arguing that its austere constitution was preferable to the more
cultured nature of Athenian life. Sparta was also used as
a model of social purity by Revolutionary and Napoleonic
France.[122]
Certain early Zionists, and particularly the founders of
Kibbutz movement in Israel, had been inuenced by
Spartan ideals, particularly as a model for education.
Tabenkin, for example, a founding father of the Kibbutz and the Palmach, was inuenced by Spartan education. He prescribed that education for warfare should begin from the nursery, that children should from kindergarten age be taken to spend nights in the mountains and
valleys.[123][124]
A new element of Laconophilia by Karl Otfried Mller,
who linked Spartan ideals to the supposed racial superiority of the Dorians, the ethnic sub-group of the Greeks
