Was the spartan soldier better than his Athenian counterpart?

The comparison between Spartan and Athenian soldiers depends on the context of warfare and military philosophy. Spartan soldiers, known for their rigorous training and discipline, excelled in close combat and were highly effective in phalanx formations. In contrast, Athenian soldiers, particularly their naval forces, were more versatile and innovative, emphasizing agility and strategy. Ultimately, each had strengths suited to their respective military goals and societal values, making it difficult to declare one universally better than the other.


Who were The perioikos in Sparta What rights were They not allowed to have?

The perioikoi were free, non-citizen inhabitants of Sparta who lived in surrounding communities and were integral to the Spartan economy and military system. While they had some autonomy in their local governance and could own property, they were not full citizens and thus lacked political rights, such as the ability to participate in the Spartan assembly or hold public office. Their primary role was to support the Spartan state by providing essential services and soldiers, but they remained subordinate to the Spartan citizens (the Spartiates).
