2History of Marathon
•Around 1100 B.C. the Spartans migrated to Peloponnesus and built the city of Sparta
•They enslaved the farmers who were there and called them helots, or state slaves assigned to a particular plot of farmed land.
•There was one Spartan to every 5 helots
•The Spartan army was so fierce the Spartans didn’t build a wall around the city, it was said they had a wall of men.
*Oligarchy (rule by a small group)
*Militaristic, strict and aggressive society
Sparta: Government/Economy
Sparta: Education and Culture
• Gov’t inspected babies’ health• Boys leave home at age 7 for military
training• Spartans citizens were equal
– In order to eliminate social classes...• No jewelry, elaborate clothes, luxuries,
or accumulation of great private wealth– Even today, “spartan” means
• Practicing a very “simple life”
Sparta: Gender Roles• Women married at age
18 or 20 but did not live with their husbands– The men stayed in
the barracks until about age 30 when they began to set up households with their wives and children
– Women maintained strict physical regimes in the hopes of bearing strong children
