Plutarch and Xenophon - On Sparta

Plutarch's 'On Sparta' that chronicles the lives of Lycurgus, Agesilaus, Agis, and Cleomenes. Plus sayings of Spartans and sayings of Spartan women.

Plutarch - 46AD - 120AD
Really not sure on the dates below

  • Lycurgus - around 900BC - 800BC
  • Agesilaus II - around 444BC - 360BC
  • Agis IV - 265BC - 241BC
  • Cleomenes III - 265BC - 219BC



Also in the book are some associated writings on Spata by Xenophon
