"Go tell the Spartans passerby, that here, obedient to our laws, we lie...." In this episode Mark and I continue our deep-dive into the epic Battle of Thermopylae (480BC). In the shadow of a dusty gorge in southern Greece, 300 valiant Spartan warriors, led by the indomitable King Leonidas, stood resolute, awaiting the impending battle against Xerxes and his gigantic army. Guided by Herodotus and other ancient sources we transport you to the heart of the battlefield, painting a vivid picture of the terrain, strategies, and emotions that swirled around this monumental conflict. As the dust settles on the battlefield, learn about Sparta's diminishing influence and the tragic fates of Aristodemus and Eurytus, the two survivors of Thermopylae who died in shame...
